CIS.M365.9.1.1 - (L1) Restrict guest access to Fabric

Overview​

Guest access to Microsoft Fabric is disabled or limited to one or more security groups.

Limiting which guest accounts can enter Fabric reduces exposure from external identities. Item and workspace permissions still determine which content a guest can access.

Remediation action​

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Fabric admin portal with a Fabric administrator account.
  2. Select Tenant settings.
  3. Scroll to Export and Sharing settings.
  4. Set Guest users can access Microsoft Fabric to Disabled, or choose Enabled with Specific security groups selected and defined. If the organization doesn't actively use this feature, keep it Disabled.
  5. Select Apply.
