SharePoint permissions
Traditionally, SharePoint permissions have been managed through a set of permissions groups within a site (Owners, Members, Visitors, etc.). In SharePoint in Microsoft 365, this remains true for some types of sites, but additional options are available, and SharePoint is part of a much broader set of capabilities for secure collaboration with Microsoft 365.
