Two ATA feature requests - input?
Hi TomAafloen
gMsa is supported for running the gateway itself instead of local service (although the value of that is really low, so not sure why anyone will want to do that).
it is not supported instead of using the AD account in the config page, (it is supported for AATP though!)
They are welcome to submit any feedback, but the chances of those happening for ATA at this point are very low.
I strongly advise them to check out AATP instead of ATA as it will give such a large customer much more value compared to ATA.

Yes, I have talked about AATP, but it's a licensing thing at the moment. It may be relevant in the future.
Can you clarify what is supported in AATP? Do you mean running the Azure ATP Sensor service with a gMSA, instead of adding a Directory Services user account in the AATP Configuration?

TomAafloen The service is still running as a virtual service account (local service), but in the config page which until recently you had to enter username and password, you can now just enter a gmsa account without password, so no need to manage this account any more with password replacements etc...
