Re: Microsoft License A3 vs A5 Security Licensing

Hi Robert, 

 

Check out
https://github.com/renisac/O365-Management-and-Log-Scripts#a35-comparison-ch
art

 

REN-ISAC maintains that github repo mostly for operational scripts, but we
do include that comparison chart which is routinely updated by a Microsoft
government sector employee. 

 

I think what you're after would be the A3 in the light purple box + the
Microsoft 365 A5 Security box shaded in black within the bigger A5 box.

I'm sorry.  I should be more specific.  We will be purchasing A3 to cover
our campus.  There is an option for A5-Security (add on).  I have been
looking for something that shows specifically A3 vs A3 + A5 security.  Maybe
it is the same thing, but I'm not sure.  The table you supplied does show A3
vs A5, which helps (thank you), but there isn't a lot of detail (a good
point to start digging from tho).

Morning,

 

I'm doing some hunting on the A3 vs A5 licensing.  Has anybody purchased A3
+ A5 Security?  Does anybody have a good comparison of A3 security to A5
security?
