Microsoft expands Project Perception to agentic-insider controls

On 19 Oct 2026 Microsoft published an extension of its earlier Project Perception initiative to enterprise agentic-insider security. Microsoft described additional local AI-agent discovery types (60 total), a unified registry, dynamic agent risk and permissions, conditional access, and Guardian Agents. Some runtime controls remain in preview. This is a dated announcement, not evidence of general availability, proven deployment effectiveness, or a new agent identity-permissions relation onset.
