Similar to the The Email summary panel for email messages, Microsoft 365 organizations that have Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Plan 2 (add-on licenses or included in subscriptions like Microsoft 365 E5) have the Microsoft Teams message entity panel in the Microsoft Defender portal. The Teams message entity panel is a details flyout includes all Microsoft Teams data about suspicious or malicious chats, channels, and group chats on a single, actionable panel.

This article explains the information and actions on the Teams message entity panel.

Permissions and licensing for the Teams message entity panel

To use the Email entity page, you need to be assigned permissions. You have the following options:

  • Email & collaboration permissions in the Microsoft Defender portal: Membership in the Organization Management, Security Administrator, or Quarantine Administrator role groups.

  • Microsoft Entra permissions: Membership these roles gives users the required permissions and permissions for other features in Microsoft 365:

    • Full access: Membership in the Global Administrator* or Security Administrator roles.
    • Read-only access: Membership in the Global Reader or Security Reader roles.
