ConnectSecure scans Active Directory objects, automatically classifies them into a Problem Group, and helps identify potential security issues.

Active Directory scanning runs on the following intervals

Entra AD = automatically syncs once per day

Prem AD = syncs based on the Scheduler or every 15 minutes if AD Audit is Enabled
