When you connect your directory service to Data Security, you provide the identifiers
and keys authorizing the service to establish a secure connection to the directory
to populate your user group information. Data Security refreshes every 24
hours, but if there are changes to user group membership you’d like to retrieve
before the automatic refresh, you can manually update your user and group
information.
The directory service and Data Security maintain a secure connection, but sometimes you
need to reauthenticate if there is a network connectivity issue or if the login
credentials have changed.
To stop scanning a directory service, you can remove the connection on Data Security by
deleting the directory service instance. Any cloud apps utilizing the subset of
groups in scanning will need to be reauthenticated.
