To enhance the identity experience further, we are making some changes to the User page in Microsoft 365 Defender. We are standardizing the look and feel to align with the other entity pages available in Microsoft 365 Defender. The structure and layout of all entities should be consistent after this release. These changes are pre-requisites for upcoming functionality, due to land later in the year. |

| MC441534 | Basic Authentication – Monthly Usage Report - September 2022 | We're making some changes to improve the security of your tenant. We announced in 2019 that we would be retiring Basic Authentication for legacy protocols, and in September 2021, we confirmed that we would begin to disable Basic Authentication for in-use protocols beginning October 2022. We previously communicated this change via Message Center: MC191153 (Sept. ‘19), MC204828 (Feb. ‘20), MC208814 (April ‘20), MC237741 (Feb. ‘21) and MC286990 (Sep. ’21). You can always read the latest information about our plans to turn off Basic Authentication here. Based on our telemetry, there may be some users in your tenant currently using Basic Authentication and we expect these users to be affected when these changes take place. In the month of September, we detected the following usage: Exchange ActiveSync: 1 POP: 0 IMAP: 1 Outlook Windows: 0 Outlook for Mac/Exchange Web Services: 0 Exchange Remote PowerShell: 0 Please note these numbers only reflect the count of unique users who have successfully authenticated to these services in the specified month, they do not reflect successful access to mailboxes or data (for example, a user may authenticate using IMAP, but may be denied access to the mailbox due to configuration or policy). If you want to block users or apps being able to authenticate at all using legacy protocols, we recommend using Authentication Polices. To investigate this usage further, we recommend you use Azure AD Sign-in Reports which can provide detailed user, IP and client details for these authentications. |

| MC446137 | (Updated) Configuration Change: Azure Information Protection Add-in will be disabled by default for Office apps | We're making some changes to how Microsoft 365 Apps choose between the built-in client for sensitivity labels and the legacy Azure Information Protection (AIP) Add-in.
Starting with version 2211 in Office Current Channel and Monthly Enterprise Channel, all users of this add-in will be migrated to the modern, built-in interface for sensitivity labels in Office. This will simplify admin configuration of sensitivity labels for Office documents and substantially improve end-user productivity from improvements to performance. For users who need to continue using the AIP Add-in during its support lifecycle, you need to deploy a new configuration for Office to explicitly allow the AIP Add-in to be used for viewing and applying labels in Office. |

| MC454810 | (Updated) Basic Authentication retirement in Microsoft 365 Apps | Microsoft 365 Apps are disabling server sign-in prompts using Basic authentication in Office Apps. We are making this change because basic authentication is a legacy authentication method that sends a username and password with each request. As a result, an attacker can access these credentials and use them to access resources. Continued use of Basic Authentication is a big security concern, so we have decided to deprecate it from all tenants. We will retire this feature in Office Apps version 2209+. Instead, we recommend moving to a more secure authentication method, preferably Modern Authentication, and enabling multi-factor authentication based on OAuth2.0 token-based auth. Note: This change is only impactful for organizations with on premises servers. If you do not have on premises servers, you can safely disregard this message. [When this will happen:] We will be rolling this change beginning early January 2023 and expect to complete by early February. |

This retirement will not affect Exchange Online and Exchange on-premises. Customers using basic authentication to connect to Exchange on-premises/Exchange Online can continue to use basic authentication without any changes to Exchange. There is a separate effort to retire Outlook connecting to Exchange Online using Basic Authentication. Please see Exchange Online - September 2022 Update. Windows files share access is not affected. The underlying authentication layer for file share is NTLM, and there is not change to NTLM. More information is here - Microsoft SMB Protocol Authentication - Win32 apps | Microsoft Learn. Access to files stored on SharePoint on-premises server that are using basic authentication will be blocked. However, files stored on SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business are not affected. Customers who currently store files on web servers that use Basic authentication can move those files to SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business, or SharePoint Server on-premises as a solution.
