About Quest Enterprise Reporter 3.5.1

Enterprise Reporter provides a unified solution for data discovery and report generation. Using the Enterprise Reporter Configuration Manager, administrators can easily configure and deploy discovery jobs to collect and store data. Once the data has been collected, the Report Manager allows users to produce reports that help organizations ensure they comply with industry regulations and standards, internal security policies, monitor hardware and software requirements, and many other reporting requirements.

Enterprise Reporter 3.5.1 is a maintenance release, with enhanced features and functionality. See New features and Resolved issues.

New features

New features in Enterprise Reporter 3.5.1:
 
* 
NOTE: Azure Active Directory is now Microsoft Entra ID.
Support for OAuth2 authentication for email delivery
If you need OAuth2 authentication for sending email, you can use Exchange Online to send email notifications or to email reports. To use Exchange Online accounts to send email, you must register an application for Enterprise Reporter with Azure Active Directory, using certificate-based authentication.
When you configure email settings for the Configuration Manager or the default email server for the Report Manager, you now have the option to select Exchange Online as the service type.
For more information, see the section titled “Configuring Email Notifications” in the Configuration Manager User Guide and the section titled “Configuring a Default Email Server” in the Report Manager User Guide.
Support for GCC and GCC High tenants for email notifications

When you are configuring email notifications for Exchange Online you can select between Azure Cloud (Default), US Government Cloud L, and US Government Cloud L5 (DoD) as the cloud instance.

Credential Manager improvements

The Credential Manager has added the following enhancements:

•
Support for UPN format for user accounts.
•
Ability to identify Azure accounts and authenticate through Microsoft.
Ability to collect and report on password protection settings

Users can create passwords that use common words and can be exposed by dictionary-based attacks. To enforce strong passwords, you can use Azure Active Directory Password Protection to enforce a global and custom banned password list. A password change request fails if there is a match in the banned password lists.

Enterprise Reporter now collects and reports the following Azure and on-premises password protection settings fields:

 
Table 1. Collected Password Protection settings fields
Field Name
Description

Lockout duration

Lockout duration in seconds after the threshold is reached for unsuccessful password attempts.

Lockout threshold

Lockout threshold for how many unsuccessful attempts to enter a password are allowed.

Custom banned password list enforced

Enforcing the custom banned passwords list is enabled.

Banned passwords

List of banned passwords.

On-premises password protection mode

Mode, such as audit or enforce, for checking on-premises banned passwords. For audit, event log messages are generated but passwords are changed. For enforce, a password change request fails if there is a match in the banned password list.

Enable on-premises password protection

Checking for on-premises banned passwords is enabled.

The password protection fields are collected by the Azure Active Directory discovery and are included in the Azure | Active Directory | Azure Tenant Information report. The fields are also visible in the list of available fields in Edit Report if you are creating a custom report.

Ability to collect Azure user activity information

You can select an option in the Scope page for Azure Active Directory discoveries to collect user activity information such as what licenses a user has assigned, when a license was assigned to a user, and the last activity dates for different license services.

New library reports

The following new library reports were added:

Active Directory | Health Check | Active Directory

•
Accounts Where SID History Attribute Contains SID From Same Domain

Updates to libraries

NOTE: Due updates to libraries, after upgrade to Enterprise Reporter 3.5.1, you must reconfigure all tenant applications and authenticate all existing Azure credentials. See Upgrade and compatibility.
•
Upgraded Microsoft Graph for all cloud discoveries. Microsoft Graph version 5.7 is used.
•
The Azure Active Directory PowerShell and MSOnline PowerShell modules have been deprecated by Microsoft. As a result, some Azure Active Directory collections have been migrated to use Microsoft Graph. See Deprecated features.

•
AzureRM PowerShell module has been deprecated by Microsoft and replace with MSAL (Microsoft.Identity.Client version 4.49.1).
AD discovery enhancements

Multiple improvement have been made for the Active Directory discovery including improved exception handling and retry logic for large collections. See Resolved issues.

Updated cryptographic algorithms

Enterprise Reporter Version 3.5.1 has updated and validated all cryptographic algorithms used within each component of the product. Enterprise Reporter 3.5.1 is using FIPS 140-2 validated algorithms and functions. For all encryption, the product uses AES-256 algorithms.
