Business value
When new connectors are introduced to Microsoft Power Platform, they can be used immediately by all makers. This requires admins to constantly monitor the connector ecosystem and reactively update the organization's data loss prevention (DLP) policies to prevent makers from inadvertently exfiltrating data. Such occurrences must be avoided at all costs in US government clouds where strict federal compliance is mandated. Administrators can now rely on this safeguard mechanism in GCC High and DoD to better control the use of connectors.
Feature details
New connectors that are introduced by Microsoft and partners to Microsoft Power Platform will be disabled by default for customers operating in the following US government clouds: GCC High and DoD. Administrators will be able to review these new connectors before explicitly authorizing their use across the organization. Connectors currently available in GCC High and DoD will remain enabled, but admins can still leverage the new tenant-level setting to disable them. This setting will be located in the "Data policies" section of the Power Platform admin center.
