System and organization controls in XDR?
A recent Service Health post in the Office 365 Admin Center, regarding a problem with Defender XDR, says "This issue impacts tenant admins and users with system and organization controls (SOC) permissions." Is this a mistake? Do they mean "security operations center permissions" (i.e., Entra ID roles or RBAC roles) rather than "system and organization controls?" The former would make sense. Looking for any clarity anyone can provide on this post. Thanks in advance!

SharePoint Online - Guest users access to people search
Hi, I'm wondering if it is possible for guests users have access to people search in SharePoint Online. We are using search rest api to get results from people result source. I found this settings on Azure Portal (Users>User settings>External collaboration settings) Even with the most inclusive option, with a guest we can have access to people search results. I can't find any official documentation supporting the case - supporting or not guest to get people search results. Any idea? Thanks
Exchange Search failure
While running Test-ExchangeSearch on Exchange Server 2019, we are getting the following error message "Test-ExchangeSearch failed for database DB-XXX at 2024-05-23 07:09:28, SearchTimeInSeconds : 0 and Error : Mapi Error for mailbox database "DB-XXX": [Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.IllegalCrossServerConnectionException]: Cannot open mailbox /o=XXXX/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=XXXXVM-SMBX02/cn=Microsoft System Attendant.

But when we runTest-ExchangeSearch on the server itself, it passes for the database hosted/mounted on the server but fails for databases mounted/hosted on other Exchange Servers.

Help with KQL / Advanced Hunting - Antivirus Scan
Hi, Trying to come up with a solution to find all devices via Advanced Hunting where a full scan was never successful. The report that can be downloaded via `Defender XDR > Reports > Device Health > Microsoft Defender Antivirus Health` as well as the device health page only provide the result of the last antivirus scan. If a device ran a full scan successfully in the past but the most recent full scan was cancelled the report shows that the full scan failed. Here's an example of what I mean: The device health status shows "Full scan failed" with a failed scan on March 28, 2024 at 3:35:57PM. When querying the device via Advanced Hunting (see query below) I receive the information that a full scan successfully ran on March 28, 2024 at 3:35:36PM. Here's the query I am currently using and I already played around with it a little bit (distinct, summarize). I could export it to Excel and then remove duplicate entries but was hoping that can be done with KQL: DeviceEvents | where ActionType has_any ("AntivirusScanCompleted", "AntivirusScanCancelled") | extend AdditionalFields = parse_json(AdditionalFields) | extend ScanType = AdditionalFields.["ScanTypeIndex"] | where ScanType == "Full" | project Timestamp, DeviceName, ActionType This is the result I would like the query to return. If any device has had an entry for `ActionType == AntivirusScanCompleted` and `ScanType == Full` then all rows for that device should be removed.optional suggestion: new menu bar app for mac
i wish i could launch one of my edge profile (no matter from which edge) directly in the menu bar. so you create a profile launcher.app and then i can search a profile installed on my 4 browser, without need to launch a browser. at the moment we can do similar things once the browser is launched using the dock icon or using the sync icon or using the menu bar option inside edge. but there is still the limit that we can do it for one browser. we cannot search profiles installed on all 4 browser. plus every time you launch the browser, you open the last used profile. so we first need to close and then switch (which requires time). profile switching is slower in edge compared to google. now with this new app you would simply launch a profile inside an edge app, without launching the previous profile.
