Your Microsoft 365 tenant may have a data backup strategy — but that does not mean you have a recovery strategy. In this episode, I explain why configuration resilience is the missing layer in most Microsoft 365 environments, and why a tenant takeover can become a business continuity crisis long before data loss becomes visible.In Episode 26 of Guardians of M365 Governance, Christian Buckley and I speak with Rob Edmonson from CoreView about one of the biggest blind spots in enterprise Microsoft 365 security: configuration tampering. We unpack why backing up emails, files, and SharePoint content is not enough when attackers can silently modify policies, mail flow, conditional access, Intune settings, and governance controls across your tenant.We also look at what “configuration as code” means in practice, how continuous drift detection and rollback can improve resilience, and why least-privilege administration still remains a major governance challenge in large Microsoft 365 estates. If you are responsible for Microsoft 365, security, compliance, or tenant governance, this conversation will likely hit close to home.Topics covered in this episode:- Why Microsoft 365 backup is not the same as tenant recovery- How configuration drift creates hidden governance risk- Why attackers target settings before they target data- What rollback and baseline comparison can look like in practice - How cross-tenant configuration migration can save weeks of effort- Why virtual tenant segmentation matters for least privilege- What Microsoft 365 admins should review right nowWatch the full episode and assess your own recovery readiness: what would happen if your tenant configuration changed overnight?Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/ragnarheilMore on Microsoft 365 governance: https://ragnarheil.de
