This guide outlines the steps required to configure and implement your Microsoft 365 Backup with AUCyber
using the modern app-only authentication method. Backup and restore both authenticate with a certificate
against a Microsoft Entra ID application registered in your tenant, so no backup service account is
required. You will be allocated a Customer Success Manager (CSM) who will assist you with the
on-boarding process, provide advice and act as a conduit to deeper technical support when required.
against a Microsoft Entra ID application registered in your tenant, so you never share a password or
an app password with AUCyber. Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 does still need the username of one
account in your tenant when your organisation is added. You will be allocated a Customer Success
Manager (CSM) who will assist you with the on-boarding process, provide advice and act as a conduit
to deeper technical support when required.

## Prerequisites

- Customers must have a Microsoft 365 account that has an active subscription.
- One Microsoft 365 user account in your tenant. Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 asks for its username when your organisation is added, and uses the account for Exchange impersonation. Any account in the tenant will do, and you give AUCyber the username only, never a password. If your backup includes public folder mailboxes, the account also needs an active mailbox, an Exchange Online licence and Owner permission on the public folders.
- The account used for configuration must have permission to manage applications in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory). Any of the following Entra ID roles include the required permissions:

* [Application administrator](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/role-based-access-control/permissions-reference#application-administrator)

- AUCyber will provide you with a certificate (public key) to be used during application registration. This certificate is used to authenticate both backup and restore operations.
- Configuration is performed in the [Microsoft Entra admin center](https://entra.microsoft.com).

!!! note "Public folder mailboxes"

Grant the Owner permission from Exchange Online PowerShell:

```
$folders = Get-PublicFolder "\" -Recurse
foreach ($folder in $folders) { Add-PublicFolderClientPermission -Identity $folder.Identity -User <user_account> -AccessRights Owner }
