Do Not Allow External Domain Skype Communications - Is this still valid?
Jeremy_Heath Hello, you should definitely go for Teams-only mode if you're about to adjust your org. As for the "external access" the settings in Teams admin portal look like this.

The second option refers to 'Skype consumer' https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=53935

- Ok thanks ill have a read.
Is this the best place to ask questions like this?Jeremy_Heath The community is a great place to ask questions. A lot of knowledge and experts in here 🙂
- Sorry additional question.
Those 2 options you flagged in teams
From a security perspective how big a risk are they?
We have certain times when our Org needs to join other teams from companies we work for discussions etc.
Is allowing this classified as a big risk or not?
I'm just looking to keep us secure within the boundaries that we have to work to.
The second option seems to be more about domestic users, we only do business. So could we turn that off all together?
Many thanks for the help
