Microsoft 365 Security Best Practices — Protecting Your Business from Modern Threats
Microsoft 365 has become the backbone of modern business collaboration, but without proper security configuration, it can also become a major attack surface. Implementing best practices ensures organizations protect identities, data, and communication channels.

Attackers frequently target Microsoft 365 accounts through phishing, password spraying, and session hijacking. A single compromised account can lead to data loss or ransomware exposure.
Essential Security Best Practices

- Disable legacy authentication protocols
- Enable advanced email threat protection
- Monitor login activity and risky sign-ins
