This November, we have been excited to announce exciting enhancements to our CVE accuracy and matching processes, ensuring RoboShadow remains on par with enterprise-grade solutions.
A highlight of these updates is the newly introduced Microsoft Defender Connector, which enables seamless synchronization between RoboShadow and Defender CVE data. With this integration, you’ll enjoy unparalleled CVE coverage while maintaining RoboShadow as your trusted single pane of glass for safeguarding your organization’s security.
How to Unlock the Microsoft defender connector
Step 1: Sync to Active Directory (AD Sync)
Set Up AD Sync:
- Firstly you will need to ensure that RoboShadow is synced to your Active Directory (AD)
- Head to the AD Sync Page, and follow the steps. Please note: You will need administrative access in your 365 tenancy to complete this.
- Once you have successfully synced, RoboShadow will automatically check if you are using Windows Defender, a security feature included in many Microsoft 365 plans such as Business Premium.
- RoboShadow’s detection of Windows Defender may take a few minutes.
- You can also manually validate your Defender setup by visiting Microsoft Security.
Step 2: Accessing the Azure Defender Connector
- After RoboShadow confirms the presence of Windows Defender, you will be able to see the option to Sync with the Microsoft Defender Connector on the right hand side.
- Select 'Sign in with Microsoft' and follow the on-screen instructions. Please note: You will need administrative access in your 365 tenancy to complete this.
- Once the steps have been completed you will see that the status of the Defender connector has updated. The portal will take around 30 minutes to sync the data before CVE's specific from your Organisation in Defender will start appearing in your reports.
The latest updates to RoboShadow' s CVE capabilities mark a significant step forward in our mission to provide enterprise-grade security to the world, and make cybersecurity accessible to all. By integrating Defender CVE data, we ensure broader coverage, enhanced accuracy, and a streamlined approach to managing vulnerabilities—all within the RoboShadow platform.
