You can do this in many ways, here's how I would do it:
- Conditional Access policies through Microsoft Entra can block personal email services. https://learn.microsoft.com/fi-fi/appcenter/general/configuring-aad-conditional-access
- Another way is using Defender for Cloud apps to basically do the same. You create an access policy where if users try to access sites such as gmail.com > then block: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-cloud-apps/control-cloud-apps-with-policies
- Lastly, you can use Purview DLP and Endpoint DLP. Create a policy so that when a user attempts to go to site such as gmail.com and tries to upload data > the policy kicks-in and blocks them: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/purview/endpoint-dlp-using?tabs=purview
I am not sure how either of the above solutions will block access to Hotmail or Outlook.com
- Conditional Access Policy - May I know what conditions will you use to block personal email using Conditional Access policy?
- What App will you use for Hotmail or Outlook.com in your Access policy?
- Please if you can tell me the configuration for DLP or Purview Policy?
