Get More on OneDrive Permissions

Do you find yourself asking…

  • How to manage OneDrive access
  • Why is OneDrive file sharing permissions control important?
  • How to manage access in OneDrive with SolarWinds Access Rights Manager
  • Related Features and Tools

You can manage Microsoft OneDrive access by setting permission levels to determine who can view or edit specific files and folders. Many businesses use OneDrive, an accessible cloud storage platform that lets businesses distribute and store files remotely.

When you have the power to determine which users can view or edit certain categories of files and folders, you can work to ensure no files are over-accessible—sensitive company documents are only available to the trusted employees who need to use them.

One of the best ways you can help establish a higher level of OneDrive permission control in your enterprise is to use a third-party access right management tool like SolarWinds ARM. ARM is designed to help you more easily manage access to OneDrive, SharePoint, SAP, file servers, NTFS, and Active Directory.

When you control your files and folders sharing permissions, you can help minimize your risk of privileged attack by ensuring only trusted users can access or edit sensitive information. OneDrive for Business permissions control can allow you to remain precise and intentional in determining exactly which users can access specific files.

Providing edit capabilities means your user can adjust the original document within OneDrive, whereas a view-only link allows users to simply read and copy your file or share the view-only link with others.

Monitoring OneDrive access with strong OneDrive management tools can allow you to more easily keep a check on user access to files and folders and control modifications of shared resources.

With OneDrive management software, you can achieve increased visibility into your OneDrive file sharing history using data from your OneDrive Group Policy folder. You can manage multiple permissions controls, which can help eliminate significant downtime for larger businesses with many users. You can also document your OneDrive file access and permissions history in auto-generated reports, which can be crucial for demonstrating compliance with industry security audits.

SolarWinds Access Rights Manager (ARM) is built to provide a comprehensive approach to OneDrive management to help make managing OneDrive file sharing permissions more efficient. You can help minimize downtime when you use templates for OneDrive shared folder permissions, which allow you to establish custom categories of users for easier file sharing.

With ARM, you can combine efficiency with security for a comprehensive approach to OneDrive management. ARM offers detailed insight into your OneDrive permissions, so you can quickly identify suspicious users and view their access capabilities. When you suspect a security compromise, you can create, modify, disable, or delete user accounts automatically using role-specific templates.

SolarWinds ARM is built with Active Directory (AD) alerting features to send automated alerts for credential misconfigurations and indicators of unauthorized access straight to your inbox. Plus, ARM reporting software can help you more easily document OneDrive access history with customizable reports. If you use OneDrive for cloud file storage, ARM is designed to make OneDrive management easier.
