What’s New

New Features in this release:

• Migration to use Modern Authentication for Exchange Online protection

  Cloud App Security supports migrating the customers currently with a Delegate Account away from basic authentication and to use modern authentication. This enables Cloud App Security to continue its protection for Exchange Online after Microsoft fully decommissions the basic authentication for EWS to access Exchange Online in 2020.

• New provisioning approach for SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business (preview)

  Cloud App Security uses OAuth authentication to provide one more approach to SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business provisioning (initial provision only), which does not require creation of an SharePoint Online Delegate Account.
