Collaboration platform combining chat, video meetings, file sharing, and application integration.
Microsoft Teams is the collaboration hub in Microsoft 365, combining persistent chat, video conferencing, file sharing, and application integration. Teams channels organise conversations by topic, project, or team. It integrates with SharePoint (file storage), OneDrive, Planner, and third-party applications. Teams has become central to remote and hybrid work. Security considerations include guest access policies, external sharing settings, and meeting security features.
Why It Matters
The DSC Perspective:
Teams is likely core to your collaboration. Understanding security settings—guest access, external meetings, file sharing—helps protect sensitive discussions and data from unauthorised access.
