Right necessary for the account that authenticates the AD on the checkpoint

Bastien_Lauc — Thu, 21 Dec 2023 14:45:31 GMT

Hello,

To authenticate the AD with the Checkpoint (R81.10), I use the Basic Administrator account. Not being a good practice, I would like to change this account and create one that would have the necessary rights to do this role.
I use the identity collector for information.

Best Regards,

Bastien Laucournet

The Identity Collector requires an Active Directory (AD) user that belongs to the default Event Log Readers group.

Note - An administrative role is not required for this user.
