Office 365 + Security

Late August 2018, Microsoft confirmed Microsoft Teams would become the primary communications platform for businesses, supplanting Skype for Business over time. However, before that could be done, Microsoft had to make sure Teams was up to snuff with all of the existing features that Skype for Business users take advantage of.

Before we delve into that topic, let’s first explore what Microsoft Teams is.

What is Microsoft Teams?

Microsoft Office 365 is a suite of cloud-based productivity and collaboration applications that integrates all Microsoft’s existing online applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher, Sway, and Access) into a cloud service, adding Skype for Business and Microsoft Teams as the main communication and collaboration applications.

Today, many organizations across the globe are rapidly adopting Microsoft Office 365 (O365) as part of their digital transformation strategy. Office 365 also plays a key role in data governance, which is all about keeping your data around when you need it and getting rid of it when you don't.
