• • Group Exclusions have been added to Google Workspace and Azure integrations within the Identities and Assets > (Identity Manager) Groups menu. This option allows you to exclude a particular Group or Organizational Unit (OU) from being automatically imported into ASM. Users within groups that have been marked as excluded will not be automatically imported during regular syncing of SaaS data via the integration. If users already exist within ASM, and a group or OU is marked as excluded, they will be automatically disabled. If users exist across many groups within an Azure or Google Workspace environment, but are a part of at least one excluded group, they will also not be imported.

Improved

• A new workflow type has been added called New Usage of Application with Tag. This option allows for considerably more flexibility in determining when alerts are triggered. Based on a specific tag that is selected during setup, this workflow will trigger every time a new user is detected for an application with a particular tag. Potential use cases include triggering alerts for new users discovered for apps with high license costs, triggering alerts when a new user is added to an app with sensitive client data or PII, as triggering for any custom-built tags.
