Technical Description and Importance
Managing sanctioned guest invitation administrators ensures that only approved personnel can invite external users to collaborate. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access while maintaining controlled and secure collaboration with external parties. By adding or removing administrators, organizations can adapt to changes in personnel or collaboration needs while maintaining governance over guest user invitations. Regular updates support potential compliance with organizational policies and minimize the attack surface by preventing unauthorized guest access.
