Onboard a Basecamp App to SSPM

Connect a Basecamp instance to SSPM to detect posture risks.
For SSPM to detect posture risks in your Basecamp instance, you must onboard your Basecamp instance to SSPM. Through the onboarding process, SSPM connects to a Basecamp API and, through the API, scans your Basecamp instance for misconfigured settings. If there are misconfigured settings, SSPM suggests a remediation action based on best practices.
SSPM gets access to your Basecamp instance through OAuth 2.0 authorization. During the onboarding process, you are prompted to log in to Basecamp and to grant SSPM the access it requires.
To onboard your Basecamp instance, you complete the following actions:

Identify the Administrator Account for Granting SSPM Access

During the onboarding process, SSPM will redirect you to log in to Basecamp. After you log in, Basecamp will prompt you to grant SSPM the access it needs to your Basecamp instance.
  1. Verify that your account has the permissions that SSPM will require.
    Required Permissions: To grant SSPM the access that it requires, you must log in with an account that has Owner permissions.
  2. Sign out of all Basecamp accounts.
    Signing out of all Basecamp accounts helps ensure that you sign in under the correct account during the onboarding process. Some browsers can automatically sign you in by using saved credentials. To ensure that the browser does not automatically sign you in to the wrong account, you can turn off any automatic sign-in option or clear your saved credentials. Alternatively, you can prevent the browser from using saved credentials by opening the Cloud Management Console in an incognito window.

Connect SSPM to Your Basecamp Instance

By adding a Basecamp app in SSPM, you enable SSPM to connect to your Basecamp instance. You must consent to specific permissions when adding the Basecamp app.
  1. From the Add Application Page (Posture SecurityApplicationsAdd Application), click the Basecamp tile.
  2. Under posture security instances, Add Instance or, if there is already an instance configured, Add New instance.
  3. Select the option to Log in with Credentials and Connect.
    SSPM redirects you to the Basecamp login page.
  4. Enter the credentials for the Owner account that you identified earlier, and log in to Basecamp.
    Basecamp displays a consent form that details the access permissions that SSPM requires.
  5. Review the consent form and allow access.
