Before you use Microsoft Teams
Be aware of your responsibilities for keeping LSBU secure, looking after your data and ensuring that you are you safe. Always be wary of who you choose to share data with, especially using a collaborative tool which makes it easier for team and cross-team working.
Think - is your document confidential or in other ways sensitive? Is it safe to be shared in a Team or in a post?
