Microsoft Teams will soon be able to spot third-party deepfakes on your morning meeting
Teams attacks are decreasing, but they're still a problem, so Microsoft is working on two new features to iron out impersonation.
Microsoft is set to introduce two new security features to its Teams video conferencing platform in November 2026. The first feature is the ability to integrate third-party deepfake detection, aimed at identifying AI-generated audio and video. The second feature warns users if meeting participants may be misrepresenting their identities, helping them validate the authenticity of those in the call.
These features aim to combat increasingly sophisticated impersonation attacks in an AI-first era. Microsoft has been actively working on security updates, including file extension blocking, and has seen a significant decrease in phishing activities related to the Tycoon2FA platform.
