List *.All MS Graph Permissions Added


Description

This rule detects the usage of *.All Microsoft Graph permissions that are added. *.All permissions should be scoped if possible, this ensures that the least privilege principle can still be applied. You should monitor for overpermissive applications and rare permissions that are added to applications.

#### Description
This rule detects the usage of *.All Microsoft Graph permissions that are added. *.All permissions should be scoped if possible, this ensures that the least privilege principle can still be applied. You should monitor for overpermissive applications and rare permissions that are added to applications.

#### Risk
*.All permissions are very permissive and should be limited, adversaries can use those credentials to access *.All data when those permissions are assigned.
