Frequently asked questions
What does tenant segmentation do in Rencore Governance?
Tenant segmentation splits one Microsoft 365 tenant into virtual environments, for example one per country, region or subsidiary. Each virtual environment shows only its own part of the data, with its own users, policies and reports.
How can a local team govern its own part of the tenant without seeing the rest?
Use a virtual environment for that part of the tenant, such as one country. It shows only its own data, so the local team can govern its part without seeing the rest of the tenant.
How can I limit which objects users see inside a single Environment?
Create a custom Rencore team. A custom team limits which objects its members can see inside one Environment.
