If you have on-premises Active Directory (AD) synchronized with
Cloud Identity Engine
(CIE), you can integrate Device Security with
CIE to learn whether your IoT devices are part of your
AD information. This integration helps you identify managed and unmanaged devices
on your network, providing more context to create effective Security policy rules.
Through the integration, Device Security retrieves devices and device attributes
from CIE and matches the devices existing ones in your
Device Security inventory based on hostname. Device Security can't learn new
devices from the CIE integration. After matching devices,
Device Security updates the device attributes for those devices in your asset
inventory. These attributes include AD join status, AD groups, domain name,
last login, and operating system information. When viewing the Device Details page,
Device Security displays the source for attributes learned from Active Directory
through the CIE integration as
PAN-OS. Device Security
queries CIE for device information when you first enable the
integration, and then queries CIE once a day as long as the
integration is active.
Toggling the integration off and back on won't trigger a new sync if it's less
than 24 hours since the last one.
You can filter your device inventory based on AD join status or AD attributes,
and create security policy rules that account for a device's domain membership.
This contextual data enriches your device inventory, supporting more comprehensive
security analysis. When accounting for AD status and groups, Security policy rules
can enforce network and resource access based on your organization's
management requirements.
This integration requires an
active
in the same tenant service group (TSG) as your Device Security tenant.
You can enable or disable the CIE integration in
Device Security.
- Activate Cloud Identity Engine and provide it with visibility scope in the same TSG as your Device Security tenant.In your Device Security portal, navigate to IntegrationsCloud Identity Engine Integration.Select the toggle to enable the integration with Cloud Identity Engine.Device Security automatically learns about your existing CIE from the hub. If your CIE information does not appear, check on the CIE setup and the CIE visibility scope.
