Microsoft Teams calls are getting end-to-end encryption in July:

Microsoft Teams is getting better security and privacy next month with the addition of end-to-end encrypted 1:1 voice calls.

While Microsoft Teams already encrypts data at rest and in transit, it allows administrators to configure automatic recording and transcription of voice calls.

Due to this, Microsoft Teams calls are not suitable for sharing very sensitive information that should remain private between two individuals.

Starting in July, Microsoft Teams is getting end-to-end encryption for 1:1 VoIP calls so that their discussions remain entirely private.

    Microsoft Teams calls are not suitable for sharing very sensitive information that should remain private between two individuals.

    If it should stay between two individuals, why do you inject Teams in there? Why do you inject a piece of software by a company that surveils you as if you are cattle?

    Maybe the sentence should instead read:

    Microsoft Teams is not suitable.
