Ensure external sharing is restricted by security group

Why This Matters

Uncontrolled external sharing in SharePoint and OneDrive can expose sensitive organizational data to unauthorized parties. By limiting external sharing to specific security groups, you enforce role-based access controls that ensure only authorized individuals can share content externally. This reduces the risk of data leakage and helps maintain compliance with security policies.

What Aether365 Checks

Aether365 verifies that the "Allow only users in specific security groups to share externally" setting is enabled in the SharePoint admin center. This check is available in your Aether365 dashboard under microsoft-365 checks.
