Conditional access policy not recognised
Hello everyone, We're evaulating Cloud Apps session/conditional access/session policies but have hit a weird snag. We have created a conditional access policy in EntraID with session control of Use Conditional Access App Control. This was initially set to Monitor Only (Preview) I then signed in with the test user and logged into the various 365 services, and confirmed these apps were onboarded into the Conditional Access App Control apps page. So far so good. However when I've attempted to create either a Access or Session Policy in the Cloud Apps Policy Management section, there is an error saying that there are no conditional access policies set up. I changed the conditional access policies in Entra ID to "Custom Policy" and waited a few hours, but still getting the error. I have created additional conditional access policies in EntraID from scratch and waited over night, but it still seems that EntraID and the Cloud Apps parts aren't talking with each other. When I create a policy, I get a warning that there isn't a corresponding CA policy. The Access/Session policy is reated, but has [Entra ID Policy Missing] in the title. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong with this. I've followed various guides and checked various forums but aside from the obvious I'm at a loss. Has anyone else come up against this before, or should I raise a ticket with MS to look at the back end? Thanks in advance, Mark
Unsanctioned to all, exclude to some
Dear reader, I have configured the asset rules en device tagging. I need to deploy certain apps as unsanctioned to all W11 devices and exclude the same apps to certain devices who have a device tag I configured for exclusion. The problem i am having is that the devices that need to be excluded, with the device tag "Exclude" Are also part of the device tag "W11" I could exclude them from the W11 device tagging but that would mean they would be excluded from all other policies that are targeted to the W11 tag. Which is not desirable. I was hoping for a solution as how you would deploy in Intune, with includes and exludes groups, but it doenst look like the defender platform supports this. I have been testing with exclude entities but this does not give the result i am looking for. Can someone help me? Maybe you had the same issue and found something smart way around this? 🙂 Thank you in advance!
How to differentiate SaaS applications vs regular web URLs in MDCA.
In MDCA, under cloud discovery what I see is a combination of regular SaaS apps and web URLs. Is there a way to differentiate these two in cloud discovery? Or a way to differentiate them with filters? Reason I'm asking is I just want to focus on SaaS applications under cloud discovery and/or cloud catalog. Thank you, TR
Using Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps to block apps on managed devices.
Greetings, I have been tasked to work with Microsoft Defender for cloud apps and to block the usage of the Firefox browser on all endpoints within my estate apart from a few users who require it. I have tried to unsanctioned app feature. This only displays a warning prompt but users can still proceed with using and interacting with the application. We have already configured web content filtering and works fine. I already looked up other articles relating to downloading a block script but that applies to other security appliances such as firewalls which we don't want to get into. Is there a convenient way to block certain apps usage by solely using Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps or is this platform only used for monitoring purposes and cannot really block the app by unsanctioning it?
MCAS API Connector - Connect GCP - Error: Failed to create sink via Stackdriver Logging API
Hi Everyone, I follow the Microsoft official procedure (Link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-app-security/connect-google-gcp-to-microsoft-cloud-app-security) to connect GCP to MCAS through API Connector. Unfortunately when I'm going to connect GCP the MCAS report the following error: Error: Failed to create sink via Stackdriver Logging API. Any suggestion? Is there a way to solve this issue? Thanks in advance. Regards, Vittorio (Security Team Lead)
Cloud Discovery policy - Governance action - Scoped profile missing
Hi everyone, I wanted to create a Cloud Discovery policy that automatically tags as unsanctioned some applications but only for a scoped profiles. When tagging cloud applications manually, it's possible to scope it to a profile: However, this option doesn't exist in the governance actions section: Are there any other way to create policies that can tag but only for a device group/scoped profile? Cheers,
