How to Investigate a Security Alert for a New External Admin Invitation

An external administrator invitation may be a legitimate partner setup or an unauthorized attempt to gain persistent control. Invitations can be accepted later, after the initial alert.

What to check

Check inviter, invited identity and domain, role, resource scope, approval, invitation state, acceptance event, and activity after acceptance. Review partner contracts and service ownership.

Recommended next step

Cancel unapproved invitations and review related activity. For approved access, use the minimum role, a named sponsor, expiry, and regular access review.
