Store your own customer key for Microsoft Teams – Public Preview

In the discussion around data protection, rulings like Schrems2 and encryption was desired by many customers. Now it is possible to store an own key for Microsoft Teams, as it was announced in September 2020 at Ignite.

Microsoft Teams with customer key

Microsoft Teams helps keep data secure by encrypting it at rest in Microsoft data centers, starting with volume-level encryption enabled by BitLocker, while Service Encryption ensures content at rest is encrypted at the application level. Customer Key builds on service encryption to provide an additional application-level encryption layer for data-at-rest and, as an organization, enables control over encryption keys.

Customer Key helps meet compliance obligations by giving you control over the encryption keys that Microsoft 365 uses to encrypt and decrypt data, improving your ability to meet the requirements of compliance requirements that define key agreements with the cloud service provider.
