NEW Microsoft Defender: Application certification and security

Release date: June 11, 2025

We have expanded the capabilities for the Microsoft Defender connector to provide certification and security risk score for applications across your SaaS landscape:

• Application certification and security risk score added: IT certification and security data have been integrated into the Applications table and the individual application pages under the overview details for applications configured via MS Defender and recognized by DIS.
• Data compliance: You can retrieve these additional details by opting to collect them when configuring the MS Defender connector.
• Ease of application review: You now have a more complete view of application compliance and security risk information, helping you review applications in SaaS management.

Note: App certification security data will not be accessible for new applications that are awaiting recognition, and a fix for this known issue is still pending. However, for existing recognized applications that have defender data, additional information from this feature will be available.
