Microsoft 365 Self-Service Purchase Controls

Microsoft 365 allows administrators to disable self-service purchases for products such as Visio, Project and Power BI via PowerShell. However, Microsoft may introduce additional products over time, making it easy for tenants to drift from their intended governance posture.
We recently encountered a situation where an end user signed up for a Microsoft 365 product (Visio Plan 1) directly instead of requesting it through the organisation's normal IT procurement process.
It would be valuable if Huntress ISPM could provide a policy to enforce the organisation's desired state, either allowing or blocking self-service purchases and continuously monitor for configuration drift as Microsoft introduces new self-service products. This would give organisations confidence that their governance settings remain compliant over time.
