The Microsoft 365 Services Usage Policy from TechRepublic Premium defines the practices and behaviors that organization representatives must follow when using any organization-provided Microsoft 365-powered application, site or service. Whether organization representatives access Exchange-hosted email, applications, SharePoint portals, Teams sites or OneDrive cloud file storage using an organization-provided, organization-reimbursed or even personal Microsoft 365 services account for organization work purposes, all representatives must abide by this policy’s terms in order to safeguard the organization’s systems, applications, sites, portals and data from unauthorized access.

The policy’s purpose is to define proper practices for using Microsoft 365 applications, sites and services whenever accessing, connecting to or otherwise interacting with organization systems, services, Teams sites, SharePoint portals, messaging, conferences, files and data.
