Event to Log Workspace Delays

Brass Contributor

Guys, is their a delay/latency in say the export of sign-in logs from AzureAD into a log analytics workspace? My security team have asked for real-time alerts on certain account sign ins. Should I look at Event hubs?

This lists the latency details.

You can measure it with the queries in the link or via my Usage Workbook, which has a whole Tab (page) for latency  https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-sentinel/usage-reporting-for-azure-sentinel/ba-p/126738... 

 

Other solutions may decrease latency, but you need to weigh that against complexity and costs etc...

@CliveWatson Thanks! We are using a 3rd party SIEM so we don't have Azure Sentinel. Specifically for the AzureAD sign in logs, would an event hub have less latency than a LA workspace?
