Legacy authentication protocols are disabled within Organization’s settings. As a result, applications using the SharePointOnlineCredentials class to authenticate the SharePoint Online resources are denied to access. Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 uses the above-mentioned class to connect to SharePoint Online.
To resolve the issue, legacy protocols must be allowed. There are 2 ways to enable legacy protocols: In SharePoint Online admin center under “Access control” -> “Apps that don’t use modern authentication”, choose “Allow” Use Set-SPOTenant cmdlet as in this Microsoft article.
