What it checks

A complete export of all Conditional Access policies should be generated for documentation, disaster recovery, and compliance audit purposes. Without documented policy exports, rebuilding CA policies after a tenant compromise or accidental deletion requires significant effort and may result in security gaps.

Recommended value

Full CA policy export generated and stored in a secure, versioned repository updated after each policy change

Remediation

Export all Conditional Access policies using Microsoft Graph API or the Entra admin center and store the output in a secure, version-controlled repository. Establish an automated process to capture policy snapshots on a regular schedule or triggered by policy modifications. Include the export in your tenant disaster recovery plan and validate that policies can be restored from the export.

Fixture-proven verdicts

Every verdict below is proven by a golden fixture in the module's gating test suite. This table derives from the last green run; it cannot be edited by hand.
