Drift tests

Why This Matters

Drift testing ensures that your Microsoft 365 environment remains in a known, secure state by comparing current configurations against a baseline. Without regular drift tests, unauthorized or unnoticed changes can go undetected, potentially introducing security gaps or misconfigurations that expose your organization to risk. Administrators should care because drift can lead to compliance violations or operational disruptions over time.

What Aether365 Checks

Aether365 verifies whether Maester can compare a JSON file against a predefined baseline to detect configuration drift. This check appears in the Aether365 dashboard under the microsoft-365 checks section, providing visibility into your environment's alignment with established security standards.
