[FAQs]
You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers.
Governance in Microsoft 365 refers to the process of managing and controlling how teams and SharePoint sites are created, used, and maintained within an organization. This includes setting up policies and procedures, defining roles and permissions, and monitoring usage to ensure compliance with organizational guidelines and best practices. Proper governance helps ensure the security and privacy of sensitive information, promotes efficient collaboration, and reduces data loss or misuse risks.
A Microsoft 365 governance solution can provide various benefits, including:
- Enhanced security and compliance by setting up policies, roles, and permissions to control access to sensitive information.
- Improved collaboration and productivity by providing ready-to-use, customizable templates tailored to specific roles and requirements.
- Streamlined administration and management through a centralized platform, saving time and effort for IT and SecOps teams.
- Better visibility and control over team and SharePoint site usage, with monitoring and reporting tools to identify suspicious activity and ensure compliance with best practices.
- Integration with Microsoft 365 services (Planner, OneNote, Power BI) and third-party tools, enabling a comprehensive and efficient collaboration environment.
