+- Emergency scenarios that fall outside of standard operating procedures and require urgent action from Microsoft to restore access to online services or to prevent corruption or loss of customer data, or to investigate a security or abuse incident. For instance, a major service outage or a security incident demands immediate attention to recover or restore services under unexpected or unpredictable circumstances. These "break glass" events are rare and, in most cases, do not necessitate access to customer data for resolution. The controls and processes governing Microsoft's access to customer data in core online services align with NIST 800-53 and are validated through SOC 2 audits.
