Ensure 'External sharing' of calendars is not available

Why This Matters

External calendar sharing can inadvertently expose sensitive organizational information to attackers. Publicly accessible calendars reveal employee relationships, meeting patterns, and travel schedules, which attackers can exploit to time phishing campaigns or identify high-value targets. Disabling this feature reduces your organization’s attack surface without significant user impact.
