Ensure the customer lockbox feature is enabled

Why This Matters

Without the Customer Lockbox feature enabled, Microsoft support engineers can access your tenant data without explicit approval during troubleshooting. This creates a risk of unauthorized data exposure or exfiltration, especially if sensitive information is involved. Enabling this feature ensures you retain control over who accesses your data and when, aligning with data governance best practices.
