Publish/Upload the documents to document library from local hard drive

I am sharing function to upload your files on local hard drive to SharePoint document library. In my scenario I have a file on local hard drive and upload this to a SharePoint document library and delete the file presented on local drive. The source code is

// For Publish file to library

private void PublishWorkbook(string strTempLocalPath, string strLibraryURL, string strFileName)
        {
            SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
                   {
                       using (SPSite siteCollection = new SPSite(SiteURL))
                       {
                           using (SPWeb spWeb = siteCollection.OpenWeb())
                           {
                               SPList spList = spWeb.Lists[strLibraryURL];///Lists/Announcements
                               string fileName = strFileName;
                               FileStream fileStream = null;
                               Byte[] fileContent = null;
                               try
                               {
                                   string docPath = strTempLocalPath; //physical location of the file
                                   fileStream = File.OpenRead(docPath);
                                   fileContent = new byte[Convert.ToInt32(fileStream.Length)];
                                   fileStream.Read(fileContent, 0, Convert.ToInt32(fileStream.Length));
                                   spWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
                                   spList.RootFolder.Files.Add(spList.RootFolder.Url + "/" + fileName, fileContent, true);
                                   spList.Update();
                                   spWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = false;
                               }
                               catch (Exception ex)
                               {
                                   throw ex;
                               }
                               finally
                               {
                                   if (fileStream != null)
                                   {
                                       fileStream.Close();
                                   }
                               }
                               DeleteTempFile(strTempLocalPath);
                           }
                       }
                   });
        }

// For delete file from local hard drive
        static void DeleteTempFile(string strFilePath)
        {
            try
            {
                FileInfo TheFile = new FileInfo(strFilePath);
                if (TheFile.Exists)
                {
                    File.Delete(strFilePath);
                }
                else
                {
                    throw new FileNotFoundException();
                }
            }
            catch (FileNotFoundException ex)
            {
                //lblStatus.Text += ex.Message;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                //lblStatus.Text += ex.Message;
            }
        }

Why MFA Matters in Microsoft 365 (and How to Enforce It the Right Way)

If you’re still relying on passwords to protect Microsoft 365, you’re leaving a critical gap in your security. A single phished credential can be enough to access email, files, chats, and sensitive business data. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) adds a second verification step—such as an Authenticator prompt, a one-time code, or a security key—so a password alone can’t grant access. As a Microsoft 365 administrator and technology enthusiast, I’ve seen firsthand how implementing MFA dramatically reduces account takeover risk and strengthens organisational security. Who this is for This guide is aimed at Microsoft 365 administrators, IT teams, and business leaders looking for practical steps to bolster tenant security with consistent MFA enforcement. Whether you’re managing a small business or a larger enterprise, the principles here apply to everyone seeking to protect critical business data. The goal: require MFA for interactive sign-ins Enforcing MFA for all interactive use...

The other site details required are related to traffic, access, edit, etc. The user's behavior changes as per the nature of the site and their working department like project team site, department site, and managerial workspace. Fortunately, Microsoft 365 has given multiple methods to generate or view various reports related to SharePoint usage.
