Feature
Description
Onboarding Validations
Users can now check onboarding status that validates if the connector has
onboarded successfully and fetched sample assets and user activities. Failures are reported
with appropriate errors so that quick actions can be taken reducing troubleshooting time
significantly. These validations are launched for the Office 365 and Microsoft Teams connectors.
Gmail restricted permissions
Gmail connector now uses limited privileges. The onboarding user can be a
custom admin (not a super admin). The application in Google Marketplace also requests for
limited permissions only. You can create custom admin roles to reduce permissions for
already deployed connectors.
Australia POP
SaaS Security is now available in Australia region for our
customers.
Tenant-level visibility and control for SaaS Security Inline
For certain discovered applications, SaaS Security Inline can now detect the specific
application tenants that users are accessing. SaaS Security Inline uses this new capability
to provide you with visibility and control at the tenant level for the supported
applications.
A new Tenant Details view displays details about individual application tenants. You can
navigate to the Tenant Details view from the Discovered Applications view or the Discovered Users view. The Tenants column for these
views shows the number of application instances or tenants that were accessed. Click on the
number of tenants to go to the Tenant Details view.
You can now submit policy rule recommendations at the tenant level.
These policy rules, if committed on the firewall, will affect only the application tenants
identified in the policy recommendation. For example, you might create a SaaS policy rule
recommendation to block downloads from Box for one tenant only.
