If you're an admin managing a Microsoft Teams trial-only tenant, it's important to review and update the new Tenant Federation setting to protect against malicious activities. This setting aims to block external access with Teams trial-only tenants and went into effect on August 15, 2024. Admins can use PowerShell commands to review and update this setting, allowing users to search and reach each other via chats, Teams calls, and meetings using authenticated identity. However, note that if this setting is set to Blocked, users from trial-only tenants will be removed from any existing chats. Understanding this new control is key to ensuring that your organization remains protected against phishing or abuse attacks that malicious actors may launch using free Teams trials.
The post [Reminder] Microsoft Team: Review and update Tenant Federation setting to block external access with trial-only tenants on M365 Admin offers more details and instructions on how to manage this important setting for your organization.
