SharePoint Online and Microsoft Teams are how you do file storage and sharing, content management, and collaboration. SharePoint Online also has advanced security capabilities including access control and permissions and encryption in flight and at rest.
If you're brand new to SharePoint Online, see SharePoint Online and Get Started with SharePoint.
Prerequisites:
Before you begin, make sure you configured the right foundation infrastructure phases so that your SharePoint Online sites have the security capabilities you need.
