# User Types & Creation ***Always try and enforce the concept of least privilege: Users should only have the level of access required for them to perform their work tasks. Nothing more.*** #### **User Types** Internal Member - These users are most likely full time employees in your organization. Internal Guest - These users have access in your tenant but have guest level privileges. Possible they were created within your tenant prior to the availability of a B2B collaboration. External Members - These users authenticate using an external account, but have member access to your tenant. These are common in multitenant organizations. External Guest - These users are true guest of your tenant who authenticate using an external method and who have guest level privileges. #### **User Creation** 1. Navigate to Entra ID ---> Users ---> All Users 2. Select the *+New User* icon and select *Create New User* 1.
