SaaS Alerts application licensing requirements

This is a collection of the current licensing requirements each application connecting to SaaS Alerts is required to have to function with the platform.

Microsoft

Our recommendation is to use a minimum of the following:

  • Business Basic
  • E1 license

Also helpful is the suggested but not required Microsoft Entra ID P1 licensing. Refer to Is Microsoft Entra ID P1 required to use SaaS Alerts? Microsoft Entra ID P1 or higher provides access to the MFA report and SSPR status for users. Microsoft Entra ID P1 can be added to any subscription as a standalone add-on. If you want Microsoft Entra ID P1 included in the subscription you must sell Business Premium or E3. Be aware that while one Microsoft Entra ID P1 per tenant works, Microsoft's policy is that every user must have Microsoft Entra ID P1.

Refer to Connecting to Microsoft.

Google Workspace

A Google Workspace license that supports third-party integrations is required. Third-party integrations are supported by the following:

  • Google Workspace Enterprise
  • Business (Starter, Standard, and Plus)
  • Education (Fundamentals, Standard, Plus)
  • Cloud Identity Premium

Google Workspace Essentials Starter and Enterprise Essentials licenses do not support third-party integration and won't connect to SaaS Alerts.

Refer to Google Workspace Integration.

Slack

The user needed to make the connection must be a Workspace Owner or Workspace Admin.

The Slack instance must be one of the following paid:

  • Pro Plan
  • Business+
  • Enterprise Grid

SaaS Alerts will not be able to connect to the free tier as it does not support an API connection.

Refer to Slack Integration.

Dropbox

IMPORTANT  The service must be at least the paid Business "For teams" Standard level or higher to allow connection to the SaaS Alerts user interface. The lower and free tiers do not allow API connections.

Refer to Dropbox Integration.

IT Glue

To connect to the IT Glue API, the following licensing is required:

  • Enterprise

Refer to IT Glue Integration.

NinjaOne

A NinjaOne user with the System Administrator permission. Using a user specifically for this integration is not required, but is recommended because it can help to troubleshoot in the future.

Refer to NinjaOne Integration.

Salesforce

There are three security licensing tiers that can be applied to Salesforce instances offering differing levels of security services. Refer to Salesforce license types and SaaS Alerts functionality.

  • Basic security
  • Salesforce Event Monitoring
  • Salesforce Shield

Refer to Salesforce Integration.

Microsoft Defender for Endpoints

To access Microsoft Defender for Endpoints, you will need one of the following Microsoft 365 licenses that includes Defender for Endpoint as part of its suite:

  • Microsoft 365 E5: This license includes the full range of Microsoft security features, including Microsoft Defender for Endpoints.
  • Microsoft 365 E5 Security: A subset of the E5 plan focused on advanced security features.
  • Microsoft 365 A5: Designed for educational institutions, this plan also includes Defender for Endpoints.
  • Windows 10 Enterprise E5: This includes Microsoft Defender for Endpoints specifically for Windows 10 devices.
  • Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Plan 1: This provides essential capabilities for threat and vulnerability management, attack surface reduction, and endpoint detection and response.
  • Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Plan 2: This plan offers the complete suite of endpoint protection capabilities.
