When organizations create unlicensed admin accounts in Microsoft 365 to minimize license usage and reduce exposure to attacks, they often overlook that these accounts do not have active mailboxes. As a result, these accounts cannot receive important emails such as alerts, policy updates, service health reports, and more. That’s why it’s essential to configure alternate methods for admin accounts to receive emails.

Accidentally deleting a critical user account, application registration, or group in Microsoft Entra ID tenant can trigger a moment of panic. But fear not!

Managing meeting rooms efficiently in Exchange Online is crucial to prevent booking conflicts and ensure smooth scheduling. A common challenge administrators face is adding users to an existing BookInPolicy.

To avoid these issues, administrators need to understand how to safely manage existing BookInPolicy and ResourceDelegates using PowerShell!   Manage BookInPolicy and ResourceDelegates for Exchange Meeting Rooms In...

Add External Users to a Distribution Group in Exchange Online

A distribution group (also known as distribution lists) in Microsoft 365 is a convenient way to send emails to multiple recipients at once. Instead of entering each address individually, you can simply send an email to the group, and it will reach everyone in it. However, there are times when you may need to include people outside your organization – for instance, distributing meeting invites to guest speakers or sending important updates to stakeholders.  By default, distribution groups only accept...

Manage Authentication Methods for A User Using PowerShell

Imagine a user suddenly locked out because they lost their phone, or needing urgent MFA resets in the middle of a workday. If you’re a Microsoft 365 admin, these scenarios are all too familiar. With Microsoft mandating MFA for all users, administrators must ensure that users can authenticate reliably, while also securing accounts from MFA registration attacks. This involves monitoring registered authentication methods, updating or resetting them when needed, and ensuring compliance.   Manually managing authentication methods for a handful of users may be feasible, but in...

Manage PIM Policies in Microsoft Entra Using PowerShell

Granting privileged access such as the Global Administrator role for project work is common, especially when external expertise is involved. However, once the project ends, this access is often overlooked and left in place. This increases the risk of privilege misuse, audit gaps, and compliance issues.  Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) policies help prevent this. They let you set expiration periods, require multifactor authentication (MFA) or approval, and notify the right people when roles are activated.  In this blog,... Read More Read More
