  1. How do I check if a SharePoint 2019 site collection is secure? Are there any other hardening guide/checklist I can use?
  2. How do I check if a SharePoint online site collection is secure? Are there any other hardening guide/checklist I can use?

Thanks

    Hi @Steve ,

    As Trevor said, SharePoint security involves many aspects, such as authentication, sharing, permission etc.

    For SharePoint server security issues, please refer to the option: Security for SharePoint Server:

    For SharePoint online security issues, please refer to the following catalogs under the "Security and Compliance" option:

    Your question is too generic. Can you please narrow down what you're asking? At the Site Collection level, SharePoint only performs AuthZ (authorization), i.e. do you have permission to reach the site. AuthN (authentication) is performed by IIS if using Windows auth on-prem. If using SAML/other form, it is performed by that provider, i.e. in SPO it is performed by Azure AD.

    Remember that security is not a product, it is a process. It always changes.
