One of the common challenges faced by security administrators is finding a balance between usability and security. This is especially relevant in a Microsoft 365 environment where users access cloud-based resources. It is not possible to wrap a firewall around Microsoft 365 in the traditional sense.

This chapter will show you how you can configure compliance policies for Conditional Access within your Microsoft 365 environment. You will learn how to allow or block access to the features in your tenant and how device compliance can be enforced with system security settings, such as a minimum password length and data encryption.
These topics will be covered in the following order:
- Explaining Conditional Access
- Conditional Access and Microsoft Intune
- Device-based Conditional Access
- App-based Conditional Access
