Adding Applications to Data Access Security

An application is a component that represents the monitored system, such as, Microsoft Outlook, Active Directory, MS Windows file servers.

All active applications can be seen in Admin > Applications. You can add tags to applications in order to better group them.

In order to integrate with a component, an application entry needs to be created first. This entry includes the identification, connection details, and other parameters necessary to create the link. To add a standard application, use the New Application Wizard.

Important

The actual configuration pages and fields vary according to the application type you are adding. For a detailed description, see the relevant connector installation guide on the Data Access Security connector website.

Note

When onboarding a new application, do not use a backslash in the name of the application.
