Best Practices for securing Microsoft Teams data (both chat and files)?
We are looking to implement Teams, but there are two key issues that we need to be sure of before rolling it out. 1. How can we secure Teams chat so that no user can ever delete any chat history...
Users can only delete the "client-side" data, the copies of their conversations that are stored within their mailbox remain, and they are what's used for eDiscovery purposes. Similarly, documents are stored in SPO/ODFB and covered by whichever policies you've configured there.
Tony has a series of articles that cover most aspects of this, and you can always refer to the official documentation as well:
