Inviting Guests in your tenant via Access Packages?

Ensure you have a flow to clear up these guests.

Ensure Billing is enabled for Identity Governance for Guests.

If you try to assign an Enterprise application to a Group in #Entra while in Entra Free, you will see a bizarre error relating to Active Directory.

This is a cloud only Tenant!

Global Administrator's well known name is TenantAdmins if you ever see it in logs.

This annoyed me when I first started in SOC and took me a while to figure out.

Heads up if you are blocking M365 Copilot in Defender for Cloud Apps, it will also block your admin planes due to .cloud.microsoft being included

I remember when people would complain that #MDO was bad but the reality was they added their own domain to TenantAllowBlockList in allow (which basically overrides all security)

Thankfully, Microsoft have changed this feature a while back
