Shield Connectors

Description

Shield connectors reside in the Microsoft 365 tenant of the Shield organization. All connectors are deployed during Step 3 of Shield onboarding except Bracket Connector. This connector is only created once Preferences are saved to Configure Bracket after an organization has been successfully onboarded.

Corresponding transport rules are detailed here.

For Shield organizations whose Microsoft 365 tenants do not yet contain these Shield Connectors, please submit a request for assistance.
