Microsoft Teams: QR code protection in Teams messaging
Microsoft 365 Message Center Archive by Merill FernandoChanges ChangeIntel observed:In development → Rolling out seen 32d ago
Summary
Microsoft Teams will provide additional protection for QR codes shared by external users in messages. Images containing QR codes from external senders will be obscured by default and require users to reveal them before viewing or scanning. This helps reduce the risk of phishing and fraud by encouraging more deliberate interaction with QR code content.
