Tenant Storage Limit
This article provides information on the Tenant Storage Limit report.
Syskit Point mitigates the risk of running out of storage based on the settings defined in the tenant-wide policy.
The purpose of the Tenant Storage Limit check is to notify you when your storage percentage gets close to the limit you set. This information can help you determine whether you should change the storage limit set for the policy, remove any redundant content to free up space or purchase additional storage from Microsoft.
When the task delegation option is enabled for the Tenant Storage policy, Syskit Point creates tasks and sends emails to users as defined in the policy settings. To learn more, take a look at the Tenant Storage Limit policy article.
By default, task delegation is turned on for this policy. If the task delegation is turned off when the tenant storage limit is exceeded, Syskit Point still detects the policy vulnerability and shows it on the Security and Compliance dashboard. This means that Syskit Point detects a vulnerability in the tenant based on the policy, but if the task delegation is turned off, it does not create tasks or send any emails to Syskit Point Administrators.
The purpose of this is to assist Syskit Point admins by bringing awareness of potential issues in their Microsoft 365 environment.
On the Security & Compliance dashboard, click the Tenant Storage Limit button to see the report.
The Tenant Storage Limit screen opens, showing the Tenant Storage Limit vulnerability.
