How it works

Connect in minutes, keep control, and see the findings that matter

Directory Guard keeps the onboarding lightweight so you can move quickly and stay confident in how access is handled.

Step 1

Create the app registration

Set up the app registration in your tenant with the minimal read-only Microsoft Graph scopes.

Step 2

Connect to Directory Guard

Provide the Tenant ID, Client ID, and client secret securely. Credentials stay server-side and scoped to the tenant you choose.

Step 3

Review what matters

Validate the connection, then see the roles and external access that need attention, with stale account insights being added.

Security and trust

Built to respect your Microsoft Entra ID

Plain, clear safeguards so you know exactly how the connection is handled.

Read-only by default

We only request the permissions you approve.

Customer-owned

You create and manage the app registration.

No impersonation

No background agents or hidden admin accounts.
