Microsoft today announces Entra Agent ID support in Microsoft Defender (public preview), giving AI agents dedicated identities and management through Microsoft Entra and the Frontier early access program. The update integrates Conditional Access, Identity Protection, Identity Governance, and network controls to apply to agents, and enables Defender to monitor agent behavior and block or limit access on risky activity.
