Configuration in JupiterOne

To install the Microsoft Active Directory integration in JupiterOne, navigate to the Integrations tab in JupiterOne and select Microsoft Active Directory. Click New Instance to begin configuring your integration.

  1. Create an Active Directory user capable of executing read queries.
  2. Obtain the following information:
    • Client Username - the username created in previous step, such as user@corp.example.com.
    • Client Password - the password for the Client Username.
    • LDAP URL - the URL of the LDAP server, such as ldap://10.10.10.10.
    • Base DN - The base Distinguished Name of the subtree to be used in authentication and searches, such as dc=corp,dc=example,dc=com.
  • The Account Name used to identify the Microsoft Active Directory account in JupiterOne. Ingested entities will have this value stored in tag.AccountName when the AccountName toggle is enabled.

  • Description to assist in identifying the integration instance, if desired.

  • Polling Interval that you feel is sufficient for your monitoring needs. You may leave this as DISABLED and manually execute the integration.

  • Microsoft Active Directry information (username, password, LDAP URL, base DN) obtained in the previous section.

Click Create once all values are provided to finalize the integration.
