Cloud App Security requires that access to your services be granted
before protecting your service. With access granted, Cloud App Security
obtains necessary permissions to access the target service to scan for threats and
take
actions.
You can grant Cloud App Security access to the following services:
-
Microsoft 365 services: Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, OneDrive, Microsoft Teams (Teams), and Microsoft Teams (Chat)
-
Cloud storage services: Box, Dropbox, and Google Drive
-
Gmail
-
Salesforce
In addition, after you grant access to Microsoft 365 services, you can create two
types of service accounts for dedicated purposes:
-
Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) account: Allows Cloud App Security to scan Microsoft 365 service content encrypted by one of Microsoft's information protection solutions.
-
Microsoft Identity Protection account: Allows Cloud App Security to obtain data from Microsoft Identity Protection for use in its dashboard widgets.
