Microsoft Teams

Onboard the Microsoft Teams connector to Radiant Security.

Overview

In this guide, you will create the Microsoft Teams credentials needed to integrate Radiant Security with Microsoft Teams. This integration allows Radiant Security to send messages to your users and receive responses.

For example, when Radiant Security detects a suspicious login that uses a VPN, a message is sent to the user to confirm whether that person really did it.

To do this, you’ll need to complete the following steps:

Prerequisites

  • You must be an administrator for Microsoft Teams to complete these steps

Obtain the Directory (Tenant) ID

  1. Navigate to the Azure Active Directory Portal.
  2. Copy the Tenant ID.

TenantDirectoryID

 

Important note: Ensure that you save the Tenant ID as you will need to provide it to Radiant Security to complete the configuration.

Add the credentials in Radiant Security

  1. Log in to Radiant Security.
  2. From the navigation menu, select Settings > Credentials and click + Add Credential.
  3. Select the Microsoft Teams vendor from the list and click Configure Credential.

  5. Under Required Credentials, add the Tenant ID that you copied from the previous step.

  6. Click Add Credential to save the changes.

Create app in Microsoft Teams

In this step, you will install the Radiant Security Teams application in Microsoft Teams.

  1. Download the zip file from this location, and store it in your local hard drive.
  2. As an administrator, go to your Teams application.
  3. Use the left sidebar to go to Teams Apps, then Manage your apps.
  4. Click on Upload an app and then Upload an app to your org’s app catalog.
  5. Upload the zip file previously downloaded.
  6. This will install the Radiant Security app in your organization’s app catalog.

Push App to end users automatically

After installing the app for the organization, it must be added to each user's catalog. There are several ways in which your users can add the application and start receiving notifications. We outlined each of them below:

Recommended option: Modify global policy for all users

This option will deliver the app to all users within your organization.

  1. To modify an existing Setup Policy, visit the Microsoft Teams Admin Center.
  2. From the left side navigation, go to Teams Apps > Setup policies.
  3. Find and open the Global (Org-wide default) policy.
  4. In the Installed Apps section, click on the + Add Apps button.
  5. Search for the Radiant Security application and click on the Add button.
  6. Optionally, you can also add the application to the Pinned Apps section for the users to access the application easily.Untitled (12)

Create a new policy for select users

This option will deliver the app to a select group of users within your organization.

  1. To create a Setup Policy:
    • Go to Teams Apps section > Setup policies.
    • Click on the Add button.
    • In the Installed Apps section, click on Add apps button.
    • Search for the Radiant Security application and click on the Add button.
    • Optionally, you can also add the application to the Pinned Apps section for the users to access the application easily.
    • Click on the Save button to create the policy.
  2. Next, you must assign the policy to specific users or groups.
    • To assign to a user(s), select the policy and click Manage Users > Assign users. Search for the user and click Apply.

    • To assign to a group(s), click the Group Policy assignment tab and the Add button. Search for the group and the policy, and click Apply.
      Untitled (14)

Request users manually add the application

This option allows the end user to manually add the application. We do not recommend this as it is likely users will forget to install the application and fail to receive notifications from Radiant Security.

  1. From the Microsoft Teams application, the user should use the left-side navigation to go to Apps.
  2. Click on Built for your org.
  3. Here, they should see the Radiant Security application you installed previously. They must click on the Add button to install it in their personal catalog.
