What it checks
A complete inventory of all application registrations provides foundational visibility into the applications integrated with your Entra ID tenant. Without a comprehensive inventory, organizations cannot assess their application attack surface or identify unauthorized, abandoned, or shadow IT applications. This baseline enables all subsequent application security checks and should be maintained as a living document.
Recommended value
All application registrations inventoried with documented owners, purpose, and business justification
Remediation
Navigate to Entra ID > Applications > App registrations and export the full list of registered applications. Review each registration to confirm it has an assigned owner, a documented business purpose, and is still actively required. Remove or disable any registrations that are no longer needed or lack identifiable ownership.
Fixture-proven verdicts
Every verdict below is proven by a golden fixture in the module's gating test suite. This table derives from the last green run; it cannot be edited by hand.
| Scenario | Expected verdict |
|---|---|
| clean | PASS |
| known-bad | WARN |
| no-data | Not Assessed |
