Policy: Azure > CIS v3.0 > 02 - Identity > 02.14 - Ensure That 'Users Can Register Applications' Is Set to 'No'

Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 1

Require administrators or appropriately delegated users to register third-party applications.

It is recommended to only allow an administrator to register custom-developed applications. This ensures that the application undergoes a formal security review and approval process prior to exposing Microsoft Entra ID data. Certain users like developers or other high-request users may also be delegated permissions to prevent them from waiting on an administrative user. Your organization should review your policies and decide your needs.
