OneDrive

Cyberhaven integrates with Microsoft OneDrive to provide visibility into data movement within OneDrive, including downloads, sharing actions, and activities from unmanaged devices. This integration uses a Microsoft Entra Enterprise application to read events and user information from your organization’s Microsoft Entra tenant.

Like the Exchange Online Cloud Sensor, the OneDrive Cloud Sensor requires elevated privileges within your Microsoft Entra environment. No service accounts are required — a user with Global Administrator rights in Entra ID can link Cyberhaven to OneDrive. Once linked, the integration creates a new application with its own credentials in your Azure tenant.

Requirements

The application requires the following to function properly:

PermissionRequirement
User.ReadBasic.AllCollect basic information of users in the organization
Organization.Read.AllCollect tenant ID and domain information
User.ReadSign in and read user profiles
ActivityFeed.ReadTrack user actions from OneDrive audit logs
Files.ReadWrite.AllReserved for future capabilities — does not modify files

Dependencies

  • You must have Global Administrator privileges in Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) to authenticate and approve the Cyberhaven application for integration with your Microsoft 365 tenant.
  • Audit logging must be enabled in Office 365 for your organization. The cloud sensor relies on the audit log API to track user activities in OneDrive.
  • Cyberhaven recommends using Browser Extension version 25.3 or higher. Earlier versions are supported but will show device information as “Unmanaged” in event details.

Limitations

  • The OneDrive Cloud Sensor relies on Microsoft audit logs, so events may take several minutes to appear in Cyberhaven.
  • Activities performed in OneDrive through local sync folders (e.g., OneDrive desktop client) may not be captured.
  • Download and upload events may occasionally display the device as “Unmanaged” if event correlation is not possible.
  • File previews or views without an explicit download action may not be logged as downloads.
  • The sensor tracks activities for all users via Microsoft audit logs; it does not support filtering or limiting to specific users.
