Control Cloud Access to Microsoft 365

This procedure describes how to add a new Tenant Controls setting to Umbrella and allow access to the cloud-based application Microsoft 365. Once added, this setting can be selected when adding a ruleset to the Web policy. Settings created here can be reused in multiple rulesets. For more information rulesets, see Add a Ruleset to the Web Policy.

Note: Tenant Controls is only available for the Web policy.

Prerequisites

The following Microsoft specific data is required to configure Tenant Controls settings and allow access to the cloud-based application Microsoft 365:

  • Tenant Domain
  • Tenant Directory ID

For more information about this data and how to acquire it, see Azure Active Directory documentation.

The Microsoft 365 Compatibility feature exempts Microsoft 365 traffic from inspection and policy enforcement, allowing it to pass through the Umbrella infrastructure unaltered. However, when Tenant Controls are configured for Microsoft 365, we do decrypt three Microsoft login domains (login.microsoftonline.com, login.microsoft.com, and login.windows.net) for the purpose of tenant enforcement. For more information, see the official Microsoft documentation and Microsoft 365 Compatibility.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to Policies > Policy Components > Tenant Controls and click Add or expand the default Global Tenant Controls setting.
    Note: Tenant Controls is enabled by default for a ruleset. The ruleset uses the default Tenant Control setting if no other Tenant Control setting is configured for that ruleset.
