From September 2025, if a phishing link shows up in your Teams chat or channel, Microsoft will automatically flag it with a malicious URL warning, before anyone even clicks. ๐Ÿ’ก

Admins need to enable it manually in the Teams Admin Center under Messaging Settings โ†’ โ€œScan messages for unsafe URLs.โ€ Or flip it on via PowerShell using the -UrlReputationCheck parameter.)

Even if just one participant in the chat has it enabled, protection works. Once GA hits, no action needed, itโ€™ll just work.

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป I personally see this as a huge step forward. Phishing links in Teams chats are one of those โ€œsilent risksโ€ that often get overlooked.

Do you plan to enable it right away during preview or wait for GA?
