Enhance Security : Enforce Mobile Devices to Use Encryption and Password Policy connecting to Exchange Online (O365)

Features available to improve security with mobile devices by using encryption and a password policy when connecting to Exchange Online (O365). Anyone who has been a Active Directory Admin will by default expect to configure additional security, the same logic should apply for the Office 365 admin / Exchange Online Admin.

How to configure, start in Exchange Admin Center

Browse “Mobile” and edit the “Default”

To apply additional security settings to mobile services by default. I’ve highlighted some more restrictive settings to configure from the default.

  • Require Password
  • Require an Alphanumeric Password
  • Require Encryption
  • Min Password Length
  • Wipe Device on Sign-In Failures
  • Sign In time
  • Password Lifetime and Recycle Count
