Ensure Administrative accounts are cloud-only

Why This Matters

Administrative accounts that are not cloud-only can introduce significant security risks. These accounts may rely on on-premises authentication, which increases the attack surface and makes them vulnerable to hybrid identity threats. Ensuring admins use cloud-only accounts helps isolate critical administrative functions and reduces the risk of credential compromise.

What Aether365 Checks

Aether365 verifies that all administrative accounts in your Microsoft 365 tenant are configured as cloud-only, meaning they are not synced from on-premises directories. This check appears in the Aether365 dashboard under microsoft-365 checks.
