AI agents are multiplying fast, but who's governing them? In this episode, Julius Damato, Director of Microsoft Modern Work & AI Solutions at ECI, unpacks two new Microsoft licenses built specifically for the agentic AI era: Microsoft 365 E7 and Agent 365.
Julius breaks down what's in each SKU, why the bundled pricing makes sense as Microsoft price increases loom, and how Agent 365 treats AI agents like employees, complete with identities, audit trails, and conditional access. If your organization is starting to build agents, this is a must-listen before your next renewal cycle.
