Secure SharePoint External Sharing with 1Security
No more surprise âAnyone links,â forgotten guests, or settings buried in admin center rabbit holes. 1Security shows who has access, how they got it, and where sensitive files are exposedâso you can share confidently and pass audits without drama.
What is the challenge?
Doing It with 1Security
With 1Security, SharePoint administrators get full visibility and control over external sharing activities in one unified dashboard:
Unified Visibility
Instantly see every external sharing activity across all active sites, guest accounts, and externally shared files or folders.
Risk Identification & Monitoring
Spot unsafe or nonâcompliant sharing (like wideâopen links or shares to unapproved domains) and get alerts so you can act immediately.
Contextual Insights
Understand not just that a file is shared, but who has access, how they got it, and what other sensitive data that user can reach.
Interactive Permission Visualizations
Explore and simplify complex permission structures with intuitive, interactive maps that make it clear who has access to what.
Compliance Support
Generate auditâready reports that show exactly where confidential information is exposed, supporting GDPR, ISO, or internal audit requirements.
Solving It with Other Methods
Organizations often try to manage SharePoint external sharing with mixed resultsâapproaches that create collaboration bottlenecks, burn admin time, or still miss the full picture of where confidential data is exposed.
Why Centralized Visibility Matters
1Security gives you centralized control over external sharing, reduces risks, saves admin time, and helps you stay compliant â so you can respond to incidents in minutes, not days.
"We used to wrestle with SharePoint external sharing settings in the SharePoint admin center, manually scanning active sites. Now, 1Security gives us a live view, flags risky âAnyone linksâ, and even auto-enforces link expirations. We havenât looked back."

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the product.
Can we truly stop risky âAnyone linksâ and automatically expire external sharing links?
Yes â 1Security automates removal of Anyone links, enforces link expiration, and ensures only authenticated external users or Microsoft accounts can access shared content.
How does it differ from customizing settings via the SharePoint Admin Center?
Native admin tools let you configure sharing settings at tenant or site levelâbut you must manually track, audit, and enforce them. 1Security provides automation, alerting, and remediation at scale.
Does it handle both organization-level and individual site-level controls?
Absolutely. 1Security reflects all sharing settings across active sites, aligning both the organization level and site level policies, while offering oversight and enforcement tools.
Will it scale for multiple SharePoint sites and OneDrive environments with numerous guest users?
Yes â whether it's many sites, site collections, or usersâ OneDrive spaces, 1Security provides visibility and control across all platforms.
Do you support ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR work?
Yes. 1Security maps findings and evidence to common control frameworks, helping organizations demonstrate compliance more efficiently.
Can non-technical stakeholders use it?
Yes. Plain-language reports and read-only views make it easy for compliance, legal, and business stakeholders to see the evidence behind findings without needing admin rights.
Is this only for large enterprises?
No. While designed for complex environments, 1Security is equally valuable for mid-sized organizations running Microsoft 365 or Office 365 that need strong visibility into access, activity, and compliance.
Gain visibility. Ensure compliance. Boost productivity.
Stop guessing who has access to your sensitive data. With 1Security, you gain the visibility, automation, and confidence needed to protect your Microsoft 365 environment.
