We have seen the settings and I hope that
by now you already start to imagine how
you could configure those to find the
right balance between security,
compliance, and user productivity in your
organization, which would be the best
scenario, but let's take a look at what
those settings could look like in two
different scenarios that I have prepared
for this course. First one, at
Globomantics we want to allow every user
that went through the required training to
share externally with authenticated
external users without any IT approval or
involvement. So in this scenario, at the
tenant level we could allow users to
invite and share with authenticated
external users, and we could only allow
users in selected security groups to share
with authenticated external users. This
way we could really implement a system
where they get added in that security
group after they finish the training, and
for this one, we wouldn't have any site
collection specific settings. Let's take a
look at another one. At Globomantics, we
want to make sure that every department
has the flexibility they need. We have a
specific SharePoint site for each partner.
SharePoint is also used for external
collaboration, and we have a specific
SharePoint site for each partner to which
only that partner has access. Furthermore,
marketing needs to be able to share
documents without any authentication
required, as well as add different
contributors to this site without IT
approval. So what can we do for this one?
In this case, at the tenant level we would
allow sharing to authenticated external
users and anonymous access links. At the
site collection, for the partner ones we
would modify it to only allow access to
authenticated external users, and we could
also limit sharing by domain on each one
of those sites. This way we make sure that
only users from that specific partner can access that site.
