Managing multiple Microsoft 365 tenants just got more interesting.

Microsoft has made Microsoft Entra Tenant Governance generally available.
So what does it actually do?

Imagine you manage 20 Microsoft 365 tenants and want them all to follow the same security standard.

You define a baseline, essentially:
"This is how we want our tenants configured."

For example:
🔐 Conditional Access
🛡️ Defender
📱 Intune
📧 Exchange Online
👥 Teams
🔎 Purview

Tenant Governance can then compare the actual configuration against your baseline and identify configuration drift.

For example:
Baseline: MFA policy enabled ✅
Tenant: MFA policy disabled ❌

You can then decide whether the difference is intentional or whether the tenant needs to be brought back into compliance.

It can monitor 200+ resource types across Microsoft Entra, Intune, Exchange Online, Teams, Defender and Purview.

It can also help identify related Microsoft 365 tenants that your organisation may not have full visibility of.

The interesting part for me is the shift from:

"We configured the tenant correctly."
to:
"Is the tenant still configured correctly today?"

Because Microsoft 365 environments constantly change.
Admins make changes.

Policies evolve.

New services get introduced.

Settings get modified.

Over time, your actual configuration can quietly drift away from your intended security standard.

Continuous configuration monitoring could become just as important as the original configuration.

💻 **Running out of disk space?**

Found a useful free tool called **MangoDisk**. It can scan your PC or Mac for junk files, large files, duplicates, app leftovers and other things taking up space.

The nice part is that **you review what it finds before anything is deleted**, and it’s open source.

Worth trying if your computer is getting low on storage. 👇

🚨 What if a phishing email contains something you can't actually see?
This is one of the more interesting security findings I've come across recently.
Microsoft researchers discovered attackers using a technique called “ASCII smuggling” to help hide phishing attacks.
Here's the simple version:
You receive an email.
You see a normal-looking word or link.
Everything looks fine.
But hidden inside the text are invisible characters that your eyes can't see.
Your computer can see them.
Some security systems can process them differently.
And attackers are using this to make phishing emails harder to detect.
Microsoft saw one campaign reach more than 2.3 million messages in a single day.
So what can businesses do?
You don't need to panic, but you shouldn't rely on employees simply “looking carefully” at emails either.
✅ Keep your email security protection switched on and up to date.
✅ Use multiple layers of protection rather than relying on one spam filter.
✅ Make sure links and attachments are being checked before users open them.
✅ Keep SPF, DKIM and DMARC properly configured for your own domain.
✅ Continue phishing awareness training. If something looks unusual, users should still report it.
✅ If you're using AI tools that read emails, documents or other content, remember that hidden text can potentially affect AI systems too.
The bigger lesson?
Cyber attackers are getting creative.
They don't always need to break into your system.
Sometimes they simply find a way to make the computer see something different from what you see.
👀 What you see
≠
💻 What the computer processes
And that's a security problem worth paying attention to.
Would your organisation's email security detect something like this?

Built something for fellow IT folks, a free toolkit at salmanittools.co.uk.

After 25+ years in Microsoft 365, Azure and cloud infrastructure, I got tired of the same problems eating up time on every job: explaining a messy Conditional Access policy to a client, tracing why an email landed in spam, or just needing a quick subnet calc without hunting for a decent one online. So I built the tools I kept wishing existed.

A few worth checking out:
→ M365 Security Scanner: signs in and flags MFA gaps, risky admin roles and CA misconfigurations in your tenant
→ Conditional Access Policy Explainer: paste your policy JSON, get it back in plain English
→ Email Header Analyzer, Subnet Calculator, JWT Decoder, plus everyday utilities like QR codes, password generation and image compression

Everything runs in your browser: no signup, nothing uploaded to a server. Free to use.

salmanittools.co.uk - would genuinely appreciate a look and any feedback from other IT folks here.

Your face could soon become another way to unlock your Google account.

Google has started rolling out a new Selfie Video sign-in feature. If you ever get locked out of your account, you can use a short selfie video to help prove it's really you.

The important part: you need to set this up in advance. It is not something you do after losing access.

Google says the video is encrypted and used for sign-in purposes by default. However, during setup there is an optional setting that allows Google to use your selfie video and related data to help improve facial recognition and verification technologies.

As biometric security becomes more common, convenience and privacy will always need to be balanced.

Would you trust a selfie video as an account recovery method, or would you stick with passwords, passkeys and MFA?

Still using SMS or phone call MFA in Microsoft Entra? It's time to check your tenant.

Microsoft is changing the authentication experience over the next few months:

📅 1 September 2026
• Passkeys become the default experience.
• Users using SMS/Voice will start receiving passkey registration prompts.
• Microsoft-managed registration campaign is automatically enabled for affected users.

📅 1 February 2027
• Microsoft-provided SMS and Voice authentication is retired.
• If a user only has SMS/Voice configured, they won't be able to continue signing in until they register a passkey (unless you've implemented a supported customer-managed telecom provider).

Can you disable the September prompts?

Yes. Microsoft will provide a temporary opt-out for the September registration enforcement while you complete your migration. However, there is no opt-out for the February 2027 retirement. That deadline is firm.

Before you start planning, answer one simple question:

Who in your tenant is still using SMS or Voice?

Microsoft has published a PowerShell script that reports exactly that, making it much easier to assess large environments before the migration begins.

If you manage Microsoft 365 or Entra ID, this is one change you don't want to leave until the last minute.
