Day in brief

Global Secure Access guidance details preview device signals and composable web filtering

The period’s substantive updates clarify two Global Secure Access capabilities. Universal Continuous Evaluation guidance now covers preview signals for deleted, disabled, or noncompliant devices, while Web Filtering (v2) guidance describes a preview Continue Evaluation action that passes unmatched traffic between profiles. Additional edits establish the Web Filtering (v2) prerequisite for custom HTTP headers, remove “preview” labels from two filtering conditions, and standardize SSPR terminology.

  • The Universal Continuous Evaluation guidance now covers preview signals for deleted, disabled, and noncompliant devices. Reauthentication uses a GSA client notification, and the tunnel disconnects after two minutes if reauthentication is incomplete. Device Compliance and User Risk signals should be paired with their corresponding Conditional Access policies.

  • The guidance now describes a preview Continue Evaluation default action: unmatched traffic passes to the next applicable security profile, while matching rules and Allow or Block stop evaluation. The Baseline Profile must use Allow or Block.

  • The custom HTTP headers guidance now states that the capability is available only with Web Filtering (v2) policies and links to the related guidance. Administrators configuring headers must account for that policy prerequisite.

  • The web content filtering guidance removes “preview” from the source traffic type and HTTP method request filtering conditions, and updates their headings and links. Administrators with internal references to the former labels should update them.

  • The SSPR policy page now uses “Microsoft Entra administrators” instead of “Azure administrators.” No administrator action is required.
