365 Permission Manager
Manages and audits sharing permissions across SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams.
For Microsoft 365 environments that need to review and address sharing permissions across collaboration services.
Audit and remediate Microsoft 365 sharing permissions
Sharing settings in SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams can be difficult to review when access is granted directly, through groups or to external users. Site owners and administrators need to identify permissions that do not match their assigned sharing policies.
365 Permission Manager provides permission discovery, policy assignment and violation auditing across these Microsoft 365 services. It notifies site owners about violations, presents items requiring review and supports remediation through permission changes, setting reversions or access removal.
Where 365 Permission Manager is used
The product is suited to reviewing anonymous, guest and indirect group access across SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams. It can be used to identify orphaned permissions, check a selected user or group's access to sites, files and folders, and apply sharing changes across multiple sites. Assigned policies provide a basis for reviewing violations and addressing unresolved sharing settings.
Suitable environments
365 Permission Manager applies to Microsoft 365 environments using SharePoint, OneDrive and Microsoft Teams. Its scope is sharing permissions in those services, including external access, group-derived access and policy-based remediation.
