Blog post from Barndoor
In April 2026, the Barndoor platform introduces significant updates to enhance how enterprise customers manage policies and integrate with Microsoft's suite of tools, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneDrive, within their AI workflows. These updates emphasize security and governance, providing granular access controls and role-based policies to safeguard sensitive data from potential leaks. The platform also expands its Managed Content Provider (MCP) library to include tools like Granola, Otter, and soon, ClickUp, ensuring comprehensive governance of AI-assisted tasks. Barndoor's new features improve policy management with a step-by-step guided workflow, allowing users to draft, test, and manage policies centrally while maintaining visibility over policy decisions and tool usage. The release supports creating granular, attribute-based rules, enabling organizations to define specific access levels for different roles and tools, thereby optimizing knowledge workers' productivity without compromising security. Additionally, Barndoor offers a streamlined approach to policy testing and lifecycle management, facilitating adjustments without disrupting workflows and providing detailed audit history for compliance and troubleshooting.
