# Slack channel privacy

_Release #005, February 21, 2026. Slack, Teams & email, Admin & security_

Viktor now enforces per-user channel privacy, each team member only sees their own channels.

- **Slack channel privacy.** When multiple people share a Viktor workspace, each user's agent now only sees the Slack channels they're actually a member of. Private channels, DMs, and group DMs stay private, matching the access rules you already have in Slack. Access updates automatically when someone joins or leaves a channel.
- **Create group DMs.** You can now ask Viktor to start a group DM with specific people directly, no approval step needed.
