Must-Use Microsoft 365 Security Features for 2025
-
Conditional access to Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD).
In 2025, passwords are no longer a sufficient precaution. Data breaches that take place most of the time occur via stolen credentials. The improved and developed version of Azure AD is Microsoft Entra ID that provides multi- layer identity protection.
Why it matters:
- Allows or blocks access by using location, device type, time and user behaviour.
- Takes Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to make the verification stronger.
- Identifies the suspicious or risky attempts to log in in real time using AI.
Conditional Access enables companies to establish access rules, including blocking access to unknown countries or blocking access to MFA when outside the office network. This makes sure that only the genuine users enter your online space.
-
Conditional Access Policies: The Zero Trust Gatekeeper.
Microsoft Entra ID P1 or higher (also known as Conditional Access) makes your identity the first line of defence, following the basic precepts of a Zero Trust architecture Never trust, always verify.
The feature allows you to set rough policies depending on the identity of the user, location, health of the device, and application that the user is attempting to access.
How to Implement: Block legacy authentication protocols that can be used to bypass MFA, authenticate using MFA when signing in outside of the corporate network or block entry to highly sensitive applications unless the user is on a managed, compliant, corporate device. This reduces attack surface and preserves the flexibility of the employees.
