This unified, dedicated DNS domain space hosts Microsoft\u2019s first-party authenticated SaaS products and experiences.  <\/p>\n<p>  As part of this transition, <b>Microsoft Teams is now available at <a href=\"https:\/\/teams.cloud.microsoft\">teams.cloud.microsoft<\/a><\/b>, in parallel with its previous domain. This change enhances security by using Microsoft\u2019s exclusive top-level domain,  <b>.microsoft<\/b>, which helps prevent spoofing and builds user trust.<\/p>\n<p>  Learn more by reading the 2023 blog post&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/blog\/microsoft_365blog\/introducing-cloud-microsoft-a-unified-domain-for-microsoft-365-apps-and-services\/3804961\" target=\"_blank\">Introducing cloud.microsoft: a unified domain   for Microsoft 365 apps and services<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b>[When this will happen:]<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  Microsoft Teams is already available at <b>cloud.microsoft<\/b>. Redirection from the previous domain will begin gradually over the coming months.  <\/p>\n<p><b>[How this affects your organization:]<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<ul>  <\/ul>\n<p><b>Who is affected: <\/b>Admins managing Microsoft Teams, Teams apps, and network configurations.

This is by design, as \u201c.microsoft\u201d is Microsoft\u2019s own top-level domain \u2013 and this exclusivity allows for additional security and protection against spoofing.<\/li>\n<li>Admins can disable redirects via the Teams Admin portal if needed.<\/li>\n<li>The <b>cloud.microsoft<\/b> domain has been a part of standard <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/microsoft-365\/enterprise\/urls-and-ip-address-ranges\" target=\"_blank\">  Microsoft network guidance on domains and service endpoints<\/a> since April 2023.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/p>\n<p>  <b>[What you can do to prepare:]<\/b>  <\/p>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<li>Educate users to recognize and expect <b>cloud.microsoft<\/b> as a key domain for Microsoft cloud experiences.
