Licensing Required for DLP policies?
Hello. I have a client who has about 10 users on Business Premium and would like to start using some DLP policies. They need all of the Office suite, so I'm guessing the lowest SKU they can go with is E3. My question is whether all 10 users would have to upgrade to E3 or can it just be the admin to create the policies and assign them to locations? Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Specific differences between a Litigation Hold, and a Forever Retention Policy for OneDrive data?
We have a requirement to keep our terminated employees Exchange AND OneDrive data for a period of 'at least' seven years, with the option of it being open ended. But I have a few questions about the differences between the two options. 1. What is the difference between creating a "Forever" Retention Policy for OneDrive and Exchange data. versus using a Litigation Hold? And can a Litigation Hold be used for OneDrive as well, or is that only for Exchange mailboxes? 2. Where does the terminated user's mailbox and OneDrive data reside, once the policy/hold it applied and I attempt to remove their account from the tenant completely? In other words, where would I go in the M365 portal, to see where the mailbox and OneDrive data are being held? 2. How does each option impact user licensing, if I want to remove the user from the M365 tenant completely?
E1 - Retention policy, different answers from MS
Hi everyone, Can someone confirm what retention policies are available to users of Office 365 E1 without purchasing other services? Specifically, I would like to be able to recover deleted emails from mailboxes. However, person A from MS says that if i set up retention policy in office 365 admin , this is all I need - though reports online say i need E3 for this to work or even E5. Person B (from MS) says that there are no retention options for plan E1 without purchasing additional services. Can someone give a clear answer as to whether there are any, any retention options available for E1 that i can take advantage of ? What options are available to me ? I'm mainly concerned with emails, not files.Creating a 'never delete' data retention policy in Microsoft 365
What is the process for creating a retention policy that prevents users from ever truly deleting any files permanently from SharePoint/Exchange/OneDrive/Teams? I'm fine if they 'think' they've deleted data, but want to have the option of restoring that data at any time for e-discovery purposes.Cannot Delete a Mailbox with Retention Policies Enabled
Dear, In my environment I have a retention policy in the Secure & Compliance center for Exchange Online mail. Now I have an service account that had a mailbox in the past, but not needed anymore and the service account still need to exist in the environment for some reason. If I open the user in de admin portal a message appear: "Exchange: An unknown error has occurred. Refer to correlation ID: xxx-xx-xxx". Now I got the error message with command; (Get-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName domain@domain.com).errors[0].ErrorDetail.objecterrors.errorrecord.ErrorDescription Get-MsolUser -HasErrorsOnly | Format-Table DisplayName,UserPrincipalName,@{Name="Error";Expression={($_.errors[0].ErrorDetail.objecterrors.errorrecord.ErrorDescription)}} -AutoSize "Exchange can't disable the mailbox, because it is on In-Place Hold." What I've done for trouble shooting: 1. Give the service account back the license, exclude him from the retention policy, wait till the policy is success and remove the license. No luck. 2. Re provision mailbox with "Redo-MsolProvisionuser -ObjectID". No luck. 3. Follow this great guide: https://masterandcmdr.com/2020/04/24/cannot-delete-a-mailbox-with-retention-policies-enabled/ No luck In the guide on step 3, they are speaking over a inactive mailbox. My service account is not inactive, it still exist. I just want to delete the mailbox for this service account. I hope anyone can help me out. Regards, Ricardo
Leaver mailboxes - Suggestions for automated retention
Hi community, I am in the process of setting up a data retention program for my organisation, and seek some advice on how to manage mailbox once a user leaves the organisation. For information: We are in a hybridised Exchange environment (Exchange Online and EX2016). All users are assigned Enterprise E3 licences. What we want to achieve: When users leave the organisation, we want to automatically convert the user mailboxes to inactive mailboxes, and then retain the users inactive mailboxes for 1 year (that is 1 year after the time they left and were deleted). We want to achieve this automatically for all users, with having to manage it on a user by user basis. I know that in order to convert the mailbox to an inactive mailbox, a hold or retention policy must be applied to the user BEFORE the user is delete, otherwise the mailbox moves to soft delete stage and is deleted after 30 days, but I am not sure how to configure the hold/retention policy in order to a) ensure the mailbox moves to inactive mailbox, and b) ensure it gets deleted 1 years after the user left (and the mailbox became an inactive mailbox) Is this even possible? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Permanently deleting data with Retention Policies
Is there a way to permanently remove content when it has retention applied? The scenario for this is that the customer has sensitive information that is not allowed to be uploaded to M365 but has been uploaded to M365 in error and now needs to be permanently removed. An example would be a document in a SharePoint site collection with a retention policy applied. Is there a way to delete and remove the document from the preservation hold library? My understanding is that retention is site collection scoped so removing the retention for the whole site collection to be able to permanently delete one item doesn't seem viable. Possibly we need to raise a support ticket for Microsoft to completely remove content?
