There are many applications which interact with some part of Exchange (email, calendar, contacts) which may be impacted as basic authentication is discontinued for Microsoft 365 (M365). Learn more about potential actions needed for known applications below.

Cisco Jabber
Action Required:
None
While Jabber can still be used to make phone calls, once basic authentication is decommissioned the interface to Exchange that allows for sharing of presence will no longer function. Also, users may not see their full calendar schedules in the Jabber client, instead seeing Webex meetings only. Lastly, Webex meetings in your Personal Webex room scheduled by using "@webex" in the location field of a meeting invite will not be displayed in Jabber.
Cisco’s latest update indicates a version of Jabber which supports modern authentication will be released late summer 2020. After its release, Northwestern University IT will need to conduct testing and package the new version for distribution.
