Microsoft Teams Monitoring

Teams carries channels, direct messages, shared files, and meetings — a large share of daily business communication. All of it is captured on the endpoint.

Why Teams Needs Endpoint-Level Visibility

Teams has become the backbone of daily work — which means a growing share of sensitive data flows through it, often outside the reach of network-based tools.

Channel posts, private chats, shared documents, and video meetings all pass through Teams, and most perimeter security tools never see inside the application. Encrypted traffic and browser-based access make network inspection unreliable at best.

Anexet takes a different approach: it captures Teams on the endpoint, after the app has processed content on the device. The desktop client and the Teams web app are covered the same way, across Windows, Linux, and macOS workstations — so switching between an installed app and a browser tab changes nothing about what gets recorded.

The risk, at a glance

  • Everyday traffic, high stakes

    Channel discussions and file sharing carry a constant flow of business-critical and sensitive content.

  • Meetings included

    Screen shares and recorded calls can expose confidential material that chat logs alone would miss.

  • Invisible on the wire

    Encrypted traffic hides content from the network — only endpoint capture actually sees it.

Capture Microsoft Teams Chats and Files — in One Agent

Everything you need to bring Microsoft Teams under control, included as your plan grows.

  • Usage & activity

    See who uses Teams, when, and how much. Teams time and activity feed straight into employee-monitoring and productivity reports.

  • Chat & file capture

    Capture channel posts, direct messages, shared files, and meeting audio and video on the endpoint — searchable in the Client Console with the user and timestamp behind each event.

  • File-transfer blocking

    Security policies stop risky file transfers (Advanced), and content-aware rules match by digital fingerprint, keyword, or sensitivity label (Premium) — so a confidential document can be read in the Client Console but not sent through Microsoft Teams.

What Anexet Captures in Microsoft Teams

Anexet records Teams activity as the user experiences it: channel posts and replies, direct and group chats, shared files and attachments, and meeting sessions — with the user identity and timestamp attached to every event. A dedicated Microsoft Teams calls interception switch captures meeting audio and video directly, alongside Anexet's screen recording and microphone capture for the full session context.

Because capture happens on the endpoint rather than the wire, no network decryption is required, and Teams web is covered just like the desktop client. From the Advanced plan, policies can block file transfers; with Premium, content-aware rules block by fingerprint, hash value, or sensitivity label.

How Microsoft Teams Control Works

From a Teams message or meeting on the endpoint to a controlled, searchable record.

A lightweight agent on the workstation captures Teams activity — desktop client and web version alike, after the app has decrypted content locally.

1

Captured messages, files, and meeting recordings are sent to your on-premise server and indexed for search.

2

Security policies scan content in real time and can block, quarantine, or alert on a match.

3

Analysts review conversations and meetings, build cases, and export a complete investigation record — PDF, XLSX, or XPS — from the Client Console.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about how Anexet handles Microsoft Teams.

Can Anexet monitor Teams if it's end-to-end encrypted?

Yes. Anexet captures Teams on the endpoint — after the app decrypts content on the device — so encryption at the network layer does not prevent monitoring. Channel messages, direct messages, and shared files are captured as the user sees them. The exact coverage for your environment is confirmed during the demo.

Yes. Endpoint capture covers the Teams desktop client and the browser-based web version the same way, on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Yes. Anexet intercepts Teams calls through a dedicated Microsoft Teams calls interception switch, and captures the full meeting session on top of that with screen recording and microphone capture — all included from the Standard plan.

Yes, from the Advanced plan. Security policies can block file transfers; content-aware blocking by digital fingerprint, hash value, or sensitivity label is part of Premium, so a confidential document can be read in the console but never sent.

Never. Anexet is deployed on-premise: all captured Teams data, including messages, files, and meeting recordings, stays inside your infrastructure, and the vendor has no access to it.
