Aembit Extends IAM to Microsoft Copilot Studio
Aembit announced support for Microsoft Copilot Studio, extending its identity and access management (IAM) platform to Microsoft’s enterprise AI agent environment. Revealed at Identiverse 2026, the integration gives security teams centralized controls over what Copilot Studio agents can access, issues ephemeral, task-scoped credentials, creates a distinct blended identity for agents, and logs every access decision for compliance and incident investigation. Aembit also published an interactive Enterprise AI Readiness Checklist to help organizations evaluate agent deployments. The integration is available now to Aembit customers; the company previously supported secure Claude deployments for large enterprises.
Technical integration that addresses enterprise security and access control for agentic AI on a widely used platform (Microsoft Copilot Studio); relevant to organizations deploying AI agents but not industry-shifting at the scale of major platform policy changes.

Aembit Extends Access Controls to Personal AI Agents
Aembit, the identity control plane for AI agents, has announced support for securing personal agents' access to enterprise environments. This new capability, available immediately to existing customers at no additional cost, addresses the risk of personal AI agents like Meta Muse and OpenAI Dots accessing sensitive corporate data through employee credentials. Aembit's solution uses a blended identity combining the agent's distinct identity with the employee it represents, allowing organizations to evaluate access requests dynamically, issue short-lived credentials, centralize audit records, and revoke agent access independently without disabling the employee's account. The platform also integrates with gateways like the Aembit MCP Identity Gateway and supports various AI platforms including Microsoft Copilot Studio, Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini.
Silverfort Integrates AI Agent Identity Control for Copilot Studio
Silverfort announced an integration that brings its identity-security control to Microsoft Copilot Studio, providing inline, runtime identity and access enforcement for AI agents. The integration evaluates every Copilot agent access request in real time and returns allow/block decisions before an agent executes actions, aiming to prevent unauthorized access, privilege escalation and anomalous agent overreach. Silverfort positions the capability as a unified control plane across Copilot Studio agents, human and non-human identities, and external third‑party agents. The company says it analyzes more than 10 billion authentications daily across 1,000+ organizations and continues AI security research (including prompt‑injection and jailbreak detection via recursive language modeling). Quotes in the release come from Ron Rasin (Silverfort) and Ankur Arora (Microsoft). The article was published via PR Newswire/MarTech Series on 2026-06-08.
Copilot Cowork: AI Handles Microsoft 365 Tasks
Microsoft is expanding its 365 Copilot with Copilot Cowork, an AI feature that can automatically generate and execute work plans across Outlook, Teams, and Excel. It analyzes data from emails, files, meetings, and documents, creating milestones, tracking progress, and requesting decisions as needed. Copilot Cowork aims to move beyond chat-style support to autonomous task execution, using a system called Work IQ to orchestrate workflows across apps. The solution can prepare briefs, presentations, and analyses for meetings and product launches, and can perform enterprise research and financial analyses. It is currently being tested with select customers, with wider availability planned for the end of March 2026 via the Frontier program. The article also notes Microsoft’s broader use of multi-model AI, including Claude from Anthropic, within Copilot Studio and related tools, all operating under Microsoft 365 security and governance controls.
