Announcement: Office 365 Secure Score Released to Public Preview
- Dec 15, 2016
Another issue with Secure Score.
"You should require that all of your users reset their password at least every 60 days"
This is no longer current best practice where strong passphrases and 2FA are used since more rapid enforced change of passwords leads to the use of weaker ones.

Sorry! Access denied :(
You don't have permission to open this page. If you're a new user or were recently assigned credentials, please wait 15 minutes and try again.
Anyone else seeing this?
Hey Chris,
Sorry for the trouble. The most likely cause is that the acocunt you are using has not been assigned the global administrator role. The Secure Score requires that privilege level at the moment.
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply, however I'm using my account and I am a global administrator.

Hey John,
Thanks for the feedback. So, the way the access model is implemented users of the tool are only able to perform actions that align with their assigned role. So, if a control requires global admin permissions and the user is assigned an Exchange Online Admin role, they won't be able to make the change. This leaves some roles such as Security Administrator as functionally read-only roles. Most of the read-only state and configuration data is already accessible to all those roles anyway (although it would take more work to get the state data). We tried to strike a balance between exposure of the recommendations to the right set of company stakeholders while respecting the constraints of their assigned roles.
Thanks!

I have the same issue with Intune scores not reflecting. We have been moved to intune on azure with Office 365 and dont get any scores showing up.
