Microsoft 365 Report - User Account Security (Excel)

Overview

Microsoft 365 provides user account information across a variety of subsystems including Office 365, Azure AD and Exchange Online. To get a snapshot of settings and permissions on user accounts that may potentially pose a security risk requires hours of manual work.

By using the Voleer Microsoft 365 User Account Security Assessment, user account information can be extracted on an adhoc basis or scheduled to run periodically for review by security information workers to prevent unauthorized access and malicious activity to your Microsoft 365 tenant.

How it works

This template will retrieve data across Microsoft 365 and third-party security provider HaveIBeenPwned to generate a report detailing information including

  • Identifying potentially compromised accounts and suspicious login activity

  • Mailbox permissions and settings that may pose a security threat

  • Providing an overview of authentication methods and active vs inactive users
