Microsoft Teams to Block Meeting Screenshots for Enhanced Security
2025-05-10
Microsoft is rolling out a new Teams feature in July 2025 to prevent users from capturing screenshots of sensitive information shared during meetings. This functionality will be available on Windows and Mac desktops, and iOS and Android mobile apps. Unsupported platforms will default to audio-only mode. While screenshots are blocked, users could still capture sensitive information by taking photos. This mirrors a recent similar feature introduced by Meta for WhatsApp. Microsoft also plans to release additional Teams features, including audio summaries of meeting transcripts.
