Thank you, I'll ask our team to check these, we do monthly Secure Score recommendations, some of the recommendations we remediated popped up as regressed. We also logged a Service Health Issue on one of the effected Tenants and logged a Microsoft support ticket on another Tenant. I'll feedback soon as i get something. We had one Tenant drop from 70% to 50% in less than 3 weeks.
