Microsoft 365 Security

Cyberattacks such as ransomware, financial theft, and data loss are a fact of life today. Microsoft invests massively both to provide the tools to protect organizations against these attacks, as well as to identify and defend against them actively. Unfortunately most organizations don't take full advantage of these tools, and many unfortunately leave themselves very exposed.

Scenarios that we will go through include the following:

• Navigating through the various admin portals
• Entra ID (formerly Azure AD)
  • Conditional Access Policies
    • Report only
    • Emergency accounts
    • MFA
    • Legacy authentication
    • Admin, member, and guest policies
    • Sensitivity labels in conjunction with conditional access policies and rights management
  • Branding
  • External Identities Configuration
    • General settings
    • Identity providers - one time passcode, Google, Facebook
    • Cross-tenant settings support for B2B collaboration and direct connect (Teams shared channels)
    • Trust settings for external organizations and leveraging that in conditional access policies
    • Terms of use
  • Identity Protection
• Improving your Microsoft Secure Score
• Microsoft 365
  • Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive security and sharing settings
  • Sensitivity labelling
• Licensing
  • Microsoft Entra ID licensing - Free, P1, and P2, and Governance
  • Enterprise mobility and security
  • Microsoft 365 and Office 365 subscriptions
  • Defender for Office 365
  • External identities

The session will be jam-packed with links to articles both in Microsoft Docs, and articles written by presenter and Microsoft Office Apps and Services MVP Peter Carson.
