On the show this week, Paul and Steve are joined by Microsoft MVP Joanne Klein to talk about Microsoft 365 Compliance – and we discuss the latest Azure AD announcements, Exchange Patches, and new features in Teams, OneDrive and in the admin centers.
“Right to Disconnect” – Implementing a Timed Disclaimer in Exchange Online with Azure Automation
Over the past year, the pandemic has disrupted traditional work patterns. With many working from home, many organizations now focus on how to help employees manage their work/life balance. Platforms like Microsoft Viva Insights can help, but there are many steps admins can take using existing technology to support a wellbeing mindset in their organization. An easy and effective change is to implement a transport rule that reminds people they have the “Right to Disconnect” when an email is received outside work hours. This article walks you through how to implement a timed disclaimer in Exchange Online with Azure Automation.
Achieving Passwordless Authentication in Azure AD
In the second iteration of a two-part series about FIDO2 and passwordless authentication, we walk you through how to facilitate your passwordless deployment for Azure AD identities. Once passwordless authentication is achieved, users can authenticate up to 3x faster and helpdesks should receive fewer requests for password resets, saving your organization time and money.
Inventorying Azure AD Apps and Their Permissions
Many apps are created in the Azure AD for a tenant. Those apps have permissions to allow them to access data, and consent for those permissions are granted by administrators and users. How often do you check what apps are known in your Azure AD and what permissions those apps have? In this article, we review how to use the Graph API and PowerShell to create a report inventorying apps and permissions. What you do with that data is up to you!
Teams Processing Causes Problems for Disabled Azure AD User Accounts
Organizations often disable Azure AD accounts when users leave or for other reasons. What you might not know is that Teams then removes the account from membership of individual teams. A background process looks for disabled users and removes these accounts from team memberships. That doesn’t sound too bad, but what’s horrible is when you unblock an account. Teams takes a long time (at least 24 hours) to restore standard teams, it might not ever restore membership of org-wide teams, and private channel membership is removed too. It’s not a good situation.
