Encryption in Office 365
Content in Microsoft Teams, Microsoft 365 Groups, and SharePoint is automatically encrypted at rest and in transit.
Encryption at rest
When a file is saved in a Microsoft 365 Group, the file is automatically encrypted while it is stored in the cloud.Â
Encryption in transit
When someone downloads or reads/writes a file, the traffic on the network is also always automatically encrypted because the Microsoft 365 service is using HTTPS/SSL/TLS as transport protocols (note that these are encrypted protocols).Â
