Microsoft Entra Tenant Governance | Find Configuration Drift

Ensure your tenant configuration doesn't drift from defined security and compliance requirements with Microsoft Entra Tenant Governance. Capture configuration as code across 200+ resource types in Entra, Intune, Exchange, Teams, Defender, and Purview. Turn that snapshot into a Monitor. It scans for drift every six hours and flags every policy change.

Extend control to the tenants you don't fully see today. Entra Tenant Governance surfaces them automatically through B2B, multi-tenant app, and billing signals. Request governance with role-based templates. Complete the secure approval handshake in the Entra admin center, then administer the governed tenant from a single browser using the roles forged in that handshake. Jeff Staiman, Microsoft Entra Principal Product Manager, shares how to bring every tenant under one governance model.
