In practice, this often goes wrong when access rights are set too broadly, when there is little oversight across Teams and SharePoint sites, or when security settings vary by workspace. Without clear governance, it becomes difficult to maintain control over access to information and systems.  <\/p><p><span style=\"color: #26aea1;\"><strong>What does it pay off if you set this up right?<\/strong><\/span><br>A well-designed Microsoft 365 environment helps you mitigate these risks.

Without clear governance, a Microsoft 365 environment quickly grows into a collection of separate Teams, SharePoint sites and documents, making it difficult to maintain oversight and comply with laws and regulations. <\/p><p>Getting governance right creates more structure and control. Consider clear rules for creating workspaces, managing access rights and applying retention periods and archiving. Solutions such as Workspace Assistant 365 can help with this by automating the creation and management of Teams and SharePoint sites, making governance and compliance a direct part of setting up the environment.  <\/p><p>Want to know how your Microsoft 365 environment is currently doing?
