Customize - Approved Locations

LET'S APPROVE SOME COUNTRIES

A great way to mitigate suspicious logins is to directly deny / allow only the locations or IP address's you would like to have access to your cloud environment. Approving specific locations or IP's will inherently unapproved all other locations / IP's, where as Unapproving will directly disable logins form those sources.

Microsoft 365 License Requirement: P1/P2 or higher(e.g. A3)

NOTE: To enforce policy on Unapproved logins see the Policy Guide.

 

STEP ONE:

Sign into your Cloud Access Monitor Instance.

 

 

STEP TWO:

Select the "Edit" pencil on your desired environment.

Microsoft 365 License Requirement: P1/P2 or higher(e.g. A3)

NOTE: User policies are only effective if your license level contains login monitoring access.

STEP THREE:

Scroll to the bottom of the page, under the "Access-Rule Settings" you will find the rules for location and IP.
