    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    We suggest that you try the following methods to better configure and manage the service to improve security and efficiency:

    Microsoft provides detailed MIM best practices documents that contain detailed recommendations and guidance on deploying, configuring, and managing MIM. Please refer to:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-identity-manager/

    Ensure that MIM security is configured according to best practices. This includes restricting access to sensitive data and functions, implementing appropriate authentication and authorization controls, and monitoring and auditing system activities.

    Regularly check and apply updates and patches to MIM to ensure that the system maintains security and stability. Timely patching of security vulnerabilities is one of the key steps in protecting system security.

    Configure appropriate monitoring and logging functions to promptly detect and respond to any potential security issues or abnormal activities. Regularly review logs and take necessary measures to address identified issues.

    Develop and implement effective backup and recovery strategies to ensure rapid recovery of MIM services and data in unexpected situations.Hope this answer can help you well.

    Best regards,

    Jill Zhou.
