Darktrace Integrates Behavioral Risk Signals into Microsoft Agent 365

Darktrace will contribute organization-specific behavioral risk signals to the Microsoft Agent 365 portal through a new integration. The update addresses how AI agents’ permissions and identities relate to the way they actually behave over time.

The integration is intended to bring Darktrace-reported risk signals into Agent 365 so customers can view them together with Microsoft signals in one interface. Microsoft Agent 365 is described as a centralized way to manage and secure AI agents, including agent identities and permissions.

Darktrace / SECURE AI will derive risk signals from each customer’s Unique Behavioral Profile and surface them in Agent 365. Darktrace states that the Behavioral Defense Platform provides unified visibility, continuous behavioral monitoring, and autonomous response across AI, people, and infrastructure, powered by Darktrace’s Adaptive AI.

The organizations said Darktrace monitors how agents operate over time and how actions connect to people, data, and infrastructure to identify unexpected interactions, behavioral changes, and activity outside an agent’s intended purpose. Darktrace and Microsoft also said the integration will allow customers to view Darktrace-reported risk signals alongside Microsoft signals, identify AI agents that may require attention more quickly, and add behavioral insight to their view of agent risk.

“As AI adoption accelerates across the enterprise, agents are taking on more responsibility, accessing more sensitive data and acting across more systems,” said Ed Jennings, President and CEO of Darktrace. “That makes it critical for security teams to understand not only which agents exist and what permissions they have, but how they actually behave over time. By bringing unique behavioral risk signals from Darktrace / SECURE AI into Microsoft Agent 365, customers can more easily identify agents that may require attention and investigate the deeper context behind the risk. This helps close the gap between what an agent is allowed to do and what it is actually doing, giving organizations greater confidence to scale AI adoption securely.”

“Microsoft is committed to delivering the industry’s most trusted and comprehensive AI governance and security experience as part of the Agent 365 promise. Through integrations with our security ecosystem partners, we enable customers to maximize the value of their existing security investments while gaining a unified, end-to-end view of risk signals across their agent ecosystem,” said Nirav Shah, CVP, Agent 365 and Agent Cloud, Microsoft.
