Copper Contributor

Hi everyone,

 

To prevent the potential for data exfiltration through a linked but separate cloud service (see picture) Is it possible to prevent users from my organization from adding a cloud service storage (one drive from another organization

Excel - Add Service.png0365 tenant assuming they have the necessary credentials to add the service??

@Kalcite Hello Basil. Yes, it's possible to block third-party storage providers as well as B2B OneDrive sync. There are a couple of options available. See links for more information.

 

Use Group Policy to control OneDrive sync settings

*edit* (noticed this is available from the M365 admin portal as well)

 

You can also block third-party in Teams.
