Cloud App Security no longer supports automatically and
manually granting access to Exchange Online using the Delegate Account. If you are
using a Delegate Account, Cloud App Security allows you to
migrate to a modern authentication-based Authorized Account.
![]() |
ImportantTrend Micro strongly recommends that you complete the migration before October
1, 2022. This is because Microsoft will start retiring Basic
Authentication for EWS in Exchange Online on this date. As a result, Cloud App Security cannot use the Delegate Account to
connect to your Exchange Online service through EWS and implement
protection.
|
During migration, Cloud App Security creates an Authorized
Account and obtains an access token to gain limited access to protected Exchange
Online mailboxes.

ImportantBefore migration to use token-based authentication is successful, Cloud App Security continues to protect your Exchange
Online service by using the current basic authentication.
