# Enterprise Applications Reference

> Complete reference for all ContraForce enterprise applications, their permissions, and what each enables in your environment.

## Overview

ContraForce uses a modular application architecture designed around the **principle of least privilege**. Rather than requesting all permissions through a single application, ContraForce distributes responsibilities across purpose-built enterprise applications registered in your Microsoft Entra ID tenant. Each application only receives the permissions necessary for its specific function.

This means you only grant permissions for the capabilities you actually use. For example, if you don't use Gamebooks to respond to endpoint threats, you never need to consent the ContraForce Gamebooks for MDE application.

<Info>
  All enterprise applications require a **Cloud App Admin**, **Application Admin**, or **Global Admin** in the target Microsoft Entra tenant to complete the consent flow.

## Permission Types Explained

ContraForce uses two types of Microsoft Entra ID permissions:

| Type            | Description                                                                                                   | Use Case                                           |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| **Delegated**   | Runs on behalf of a signed-in user. The application can only do what the signed-in user has permission to do. | Interactive portal sessions, on-behalf-of flows    |
| **Application** | Runs without a user context. The application acts with its own identity.                                      | Background operations, service provider automation |

By default, ContraForce requests **delegated permissions**. Application permissions are available for select Gamebook applications to support **Service Provider Mode**, where MSPs/MSSPs need to execute response actions in customer tenants without requiring an operator to be signed into each tenant.

## Managing Permissions

After onboarding, you can review and manage enterprise application permissions in two locations:

**From the ContraForce Portal:**
Navigate to **Settings → Permissions** to consent additional service principals or review existing consent status.

**From Microsoft Entra Admin Center:**
Go to **Enterprise Applications** to review all ContraForce applications registered in your tenant and their granted permissions.

***

## Revoking Consent

If you need to revoke consent for any ContraForce enterprise application:

1. Go to **Azure Portal → Microsoft Entra ID → Enterprise Applications**
2. Find the ContraForce application you want to revoke
3. Click **Properties**
4. Set **Enabled for users to sign-in** to **No** (to disable) or **Delete** the application entirely

<Warning>
  Revoking consent will disable the associated ContraForce capabilities for that workspace. For example, revoking the ContraForce for MDE application will cause the Endpoints page to stop showing devices.
</Warning>
