Microsoft Teams is introducing Email OTP verification for external participants to join meetings. A new policy will be available in Teams Admin Center, allowing admins to manage anonymous user access. This feature is for all organizations and will be rolled out from mid-January 2024 to early April 2025. Admins should update their meeting policy settings by mid-February to continue blocking unverified users if desired. The feature is linked to Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 418125.
