Users have been using Basic Authentication while making connections with services, servers and endpoints for a long time. In this type of authentication method, the application simply sends user name and password with each request.  This has been a simple solution, which was good in old days but due to the rise in cyber-attacks methods, something more secure was needed to improve the user experience of Exchange Online.

The Recent changes

For Exchange Web Services, this Basic authentication method is going off from October 2020 for better Exchange Online security. To phase out old authentication methods, Microsoft is turning off Basic Authentication for Exchange ActiveSync (EAS), POP, IMAP and Remote PowerShell on the same date as well. However, SMTP Auth will continue to support Basic Authentication.

Modern Authentication

Modern Authentication is now based on OAuth 2.0 token based Auth that is not only reliable but also mitigates problems of current authentication methods. It incorporates Multi factor authentication for a better secure experience. In Modern Authentication method, OAuth Access tokens have a limited lifetime. These tokens are limited to applications and resources and can’t be reused. This increases Exchange Online Protection for its users.

Impact on users

With every change related to security, the end-users become more secure, however, organizations offering Exchange Online have to look for a few things and work upon them in time. Remote PowerShell should be switched with PowerShell within Azure Cloud Shell until more secure MFA module is provided for RPS. For tenant admins, a tool would be available soon that determines who is using Basic Auth in the tenant. This makes it easier to discover how large the task to shift the user to Modern Auth methods is. POP and IMAP are also going to be modified and OAuth will be added to these protocols soon.

For Exchange Active sync, a better secured approach towards Exchange Online Security is to opt for Outlook Mobile. It undoubtedly integrates Microsoft Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) and MAM protection for a secured corporate data and user data. Outlook mobile supports Modern Auth by default.

So, Work Folders accesses data on multiple devices from file server whereas OneDrive for business will provide access to data from multiple devices from SharePoint.

Work Folders

Work Folders module was introduced for storing and accessing work files on PCs, laptops and other devices. The concept emerged with the growing trend of bring your-own-device (BYOD) in cloud business space. Work Folders module help organizations manage and control their data on centrally managed file servers. There is also the option of setting up user device policies and lock screen passwords for multiple employees who bring their own devices.

Deployment of Work Folders

The deployment of Work Folders can be done on any number of file servers within your environment. Hence, Work Folders implementation can be scaled according to need and growth within the environment. There are three options for enterprises: single-site deployment; in which file server is hosted inside a site within customer infrastructure, multiple-site deployment; in which file servers are hosted in multiple locations and hosted deployment; in which sync servers are to be deployed over an IaaS solution.

Business Applications

It provides a decent way of accessing user’s work by providing a single point of access. It also allows for accessing files and work documents while the user is offline and performs sync whenever the system is next connected to Internet. File classification and folder quotas are the existing file server management techniques in order to manage user data. For the provision of a high availability solution, Failover Clustering with Work Folders is used.

OneDrive benefits for Business

As mentioned earlier, One Drive for business is the sync client for SharePoint. It makes sharing and collaboration easier for SharePoint users.

Deployment of OneDrive for Business

There are many OneDrive benefits for business. OneDrive apps can be deployed using System Center Configuration Manager for OneDrive sync client. The latest sync client can be used with SharePoint 2019 but not the earlier versions. Deployment can also be done using Intune. There is a separate option of Network Utilization planning which can be set in order to use the sync client efficiently.

Business Applications

OneDrive is used for file sharing and handling. It connects files, lets you store the important work, and makes collaboration and sharing of files on multiple devices easier within the office space. All of the files are private by default. Sharing is even allowed to client outside of the company, depending on cloud business’s policy off course, through Office 365 while using OneDrive for Business.

To sum it all up, both the products are getting better with new releases. When making a choice between the two, it is important to know the back-end infrastructure of the two.
