Ensure that 'Owners can manage group membership requests in My Groups' is set to 'No'
Opis
Microsoft Entra ID provides self-service group management features that enable users to create and manage their own security groups or Microsoft 365 groups. The owner of the group can approve or deny membership requests and delegate control of group membership. Self-service group management features aren't available for mail-enabled security groups or distribution lists. The recommended state is No. Group owners are standard users who may not have visibility into access governance requirements for a given group. Allowing owners to approve membership requests through My Groups means additions to security groups or Microsoft 365 groups can occur without administrator review, bypassing formal access provisioning controls. Unauthorized or excessive group membership can expand a user's effective permissions and increase the blast radius of a compromised account.
