When used the following MDO query of EmailEvents it is working in the Defender control panel but when applied through 'Advanced Hunting' action in Power automate application given bad gateway error. Is this query supported in this application?102Views0likes1CommentFull Automation Capabilities in Linux OS
Hello eveyone, We have configured Defender to detect viruses, and our goal is that if one of our assets downloads or encounters a virus, it is automatically hidden or removed. Based on the documentation regarding the automation levels in Automated Investigation and Remediation capabilities, we have set it to "Full - remediate threats automatically." While this works correctly on Windows devices, we have noticed that on Linux devices, the defender still detect the virus but it was not prevented. I was wondering if anyone has encountered this issue and, if so, how it was resolved? Additionally, as I am new to the Defender platform, I wanted to ask if could this issue potentially be resolved through specific Linux policies or functionalities? Best regards Mathiew89Views1like1CommentMicrosoft Sentinel MCP Entity Analyzer: Explainable risk analysis for URLs and identities
What makes this release important is not just that it adds another AI feature to Sentinel. It changes the implementation model for enrichment and triage. Instead of building and maintaining a chain of custom playbooks, KQL lookups, threat intel checks, and entity correlation logic, SOC teams can call a single analyzer that returns a reasoned verdict and supporting evidence. Microsoft positions the analyzer as available through Sentinel MCP server connections for agent platforms and through Logic Apps for SOAR workflows, which makes it useful both for interactive investigations and for automated response pipelines. Why this matters First, it formalizes Entity Analyzer as a production feature rather than a preview experiment. Second, it introduces a real cost model, which means organizations now need to govern usage instead of treating it as a free enrichment helper. Third, Microsoft’s documentation is now detailed enough to support repeatable implementation patterns, including prerequisites, limits, required tables, Logic Apps deployment, and cost behavior. From a SOC engineering perspective, Entity Analyzer is interesting because it focuses on explainability. Microsoft describes the feature as generating clear, explainable verdicts for URLs and user identities by analyzing multiple modalities, including threat intelligence, prevalence, and organizational context. That is a much stronger operational model than simple point-enrichment because it aims to return an assessment that analysts can act on, not just more raw evidence What Entity Analyzer actually does The Entity Analyzer tools are described as AI-powered tools that analyze data in the Microsoft Sentinel data lake and provide a verdict plus detailed insights on URLs, domains, and user entities. Microsoft explicitly says these tools help eliminate the need for manual data collection and complex integrations usually required for investigation and enrichment hat positioning is important. In practice, many SOC teams have built enrichment playbooks that fetch sign-in history, query TI feeds, inspect click data, read watchlists, and collect relevant alerts. Those workflows work, but they create maintenance overhead and produce inconsistent analyst experiences. Entity Analyzer centralizes that reasoning layer. For user entities, Microsoft’s preview architecture explains that the analyzer retrieves sign-in logs, security alerts, behavior analytics, cloud app events, identity information, and Microsoft Threat Intelligence, then correlates those signals and applies AI-based reasoning to produce a verdict. Microsoft lists verdict examples such as Compromised, Suspicious activity found, and No evidence of compromise, and also warns that AI-generated content may be incorrect and should be checked for accuracy. That warning matters. The right way to think about Entity Analyzer is not “automatic truth,” but “high-value, explainable triage acceleration.” It should reduce analyst effort and improve consistency, while still fitting into human review and response policy. Under the hood: the implementation model Technically, Entity Analyzer is delivered through the Microsoft Sentinel MCP data exploration tool collection. Microsoft documents that entity analysis is asynchronous: you start analysis, receive an identifier, and then poll for results. The docs note that analysis may take a few minutes and that the retrieval step may need to be run more than once if the internal timeout is not enough for long operations. That design has two immediate implications for implementers. First, this is not a lightweight synchronous enrichment call you should drop carelessly into every automation branch. Second, any production workflow should include retry logic, timeouts, and concurrency controls. If you ignore that, you will create fragile playbooks and unnecessary SCU burn. The supported access path for the data exploration collection requires Microsoft Sentinel data lake and one of the supported MCP-capable platforms. Microsoft also states that access to the tools is supported for identities with at least Security Administrator, Security Operator, or Security Reader. The data exploration collection is hosted at the Sentinel MCP endpoint, and the same documentation notes additional Entity Analyzer roles related to Security Copilot usage. The prerequisite many teams will miss The most important prerequisite is easy to overlook: Microsoft Sentinel data lake is required. This is more than a licensing footnote. It directly affects data quality, analyzer usefulness, and rollout success. If your organization has not onboarded the right tables into the data lake, Entity Analyzer will either fail or return reduced-confidence output. For user analysis, the following tables are required to ensure accuracy: AlertEvidence, SigninLogs, CloudAppEvents, and IdentityInfo. also notes that IdentityInfo depends on Defender for Identity, Defender for Cloud Apps, or Defender for Endpoint P2 licensing. The analyzer works best with AADNonInteractiveUserSignInLogs and BehaviorAnalytics as well. For URL analysis, the analyzer works best with EmailUrlInfo, UrlClickEvents, ThreatIntelIndicators, Watchlist, and DeviceNetworkEvents. If those tables are missing, the analyzer returns a disclaimer identifying the missing sources A practical architecture view An incident, hunting workflow, or analyst identifies a high-interest URL or user. A Sentinel MCP client or Logic App calls Entity Analyzer. Entity Analyzer queries relevant Sentinel data lake sources and correlates the findings. AI reasoning produces a verdict, evidence narrative, and recommendations. The result is returned to the analyst, incident record, or automation workflow for next-step action. This model is especially valuable because it collapses a multi-query, multi-tool investigation pattern into a single explainable decisioning step. Where it fits in real Sentinel operations Entity Analyzer is not a replacement for analytics rules, UEBA, or threat intelligence. It is a force multiplier for them. For identity triage, it fits naturally after incidents triggered by sign-in anomaly detections, UEBA signals, or Defender alerts because it already consumes sign-in logs, cloud app events, and behavior analytics as core evidence sources. For URL triage, it complements phishing and click-investigation workflows because it uses TI, URL activity, watchlists, and device/network context. Implementation path 1: MCP clients and security agents Microsoft states that Entity Analyzer integrates with agents through Sentinel MCP server connections to first-party and third-party AI runtime platforms. In practice, this makes it attractive for analyst copilots, engineering-side investigation agents, and guided triage experiences The benefit of this model is speed. A security engineer or analyst can invoke the analyzer directly from an MCP-capable client without building a custom orchestration layer. The tradeoff is governance: once you make the tool widely accessible, you need a clear policy for who can run it, when it should be used, and how results are validated before action is taken. Implementation path 2: Logic Apps and SOAR playbooks For SOC teams, Logic Apps is likely the most immediately useful deployment model. Microsoft documents an entity analyzer action inside the Microsoft Sentinel MCP tools connector and provides the required parameters for adding it to an existing logic app. These include: Workspace ID Look Back Days Properties payload for either URL or User The documented payloads are straightforward: { "entityType": "Url", "url": "[URL]" } And { "entityType": "User", "userId": "[Microsoft Entra object ID or User Principal Name]" } Also states that the connector supports Microsoft Entra ID, service principals, and managed identities, and that the Logic App identity requires Security Reader to operate. This makes playbook integration a strong pattern for incident enrichment. A high-severity incident can trigger a playbook, extract entities, invoke Entity Analyzer, and post the verdict back to the incident as a comment or decision artifact. The concurrency lesson most people will learn the hard way Unusually direct guidance on concurrency: to avoid timeouts and threshold issues, turn on Concurrency control in Logic Apps loops and start with a degree of parallelism of . The data exploration doc repeats the same guidance, stating that running multiple instances at once can increase latency and recommending starting with a maximum of five concurrent analyses. This is a strong indicator that the correct implementation pattern is selective analysis, not blanket analysis. Do not analyze every entity in every incident. Analyze the entities that matter most: external URLs in phishing or delivery chains accounts tied to high-confidence alerts entities associated with high-severity or high-impact incidents suspicious users with multiple correlated signals That keeps latency, quota pressure, and SCU consumption under control. KQL still matters Entity Analyzer does not eliminate KQL. It changes where KQL adds value. Before running the analyzer, KQL is still useful for scoping and selecting the right entities. After the analyzer returns, KQL is useful for validation, deeper hunting, and building custom evidence views around the analyzer’s verdict. For example, a simple sign-in baseline for a target user: let TargetUpn = "email address removed for privacy reasons"; SigninLogs | where TimeGenerated between (ago(7d) .. now()) | where UserPrincipalName == TargetUpn | summarize Total=count(), Failures=countif(ResultType != "0"), Successes=countif(ResultType == "0"), DistinctIPs=dcount(IPAddress), Apps=make_set(AppDisplayName, 20) by bin(TimeGenerated, 1d) | order by TimeGenerated desc And a lightweight URL prevalence check: let TargetUrl = "omicron-obl.com"; UrlClickEvents | where TimeGenerated between (ago(7d) .. now()) | search TargetUrl | take 50 Cost, billing, and governance GA is where technical excitement meets budget reality. Microsoft’s Sentinel billing documentation says there is no extra cost for the MCP server interface itself. However, for Entity Analyzer, customers are charged for the SCUs used for AI reasoning and also for the KQL queries executed against the Microsoft Sentinel data lake. Microsoft further states that existing Security Copilot entitlements apply The April 2026 “What’s new” entry also explicitly says that starting April 1, 2026, customers are charged for the SCUs required when using Entity Analyzer. That means every rollout should include a governance plan: define who can invoke the analyzer decide when playbooks are allowed to call it monitor SCU consumption limit unnecessary repeat runs preserve results in incident records so you do not rerun the same analysis within a short period Microsoft’s MCP billing documentation also defines service limits: 200 total runs per hour, 500 total runs per day, and around 15 concurrent runs every five minutes, with analysis results available for one hour. Those are not just product limits. They are design requirements. Limitations you should state clearly The analyze_user_entity supports a maximum time window of seven days and only works for users with a Microsoft Entra object ID. On-premises Active Directory-only users are not supported for user analysis. Microsoft also says Entity Analyzer results expire after one hour and that the tool collection currently supports English prompts only. Recommended rollout pattern If I were implementing this in a production SOC, I would phase it like this: Start with a narrow set of high-value use cases, such as suspicious user identities and phishing-related URLs. Confirm that the required tables are present in the data lake. Deploy a Logic App enrichment pattern for incident-triggered analysis. Add concurrency control and retry logic. Persist returned verdicts into incident comments or case notes. Then review SCU usage and analyst value before expanding coverage.448Views1like0CommentsCustom data collection in MDE - what is default?
So you just announced the preview of "Custom data collection in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (Preview)" which lets me ingest custom data to sentinel. Is there also an overview of what is default and what I can add? e.g. we want to examine repeating disconnects from AzureVPN clients (yes, it's most likely just Microsoft's fault, as the app ratings show 'everyone' is having them) How do I know which data I can add to DeviceCustomNetworkEvents which isnt already in DeviceNetworkEvents?Solved149Views1like1CommentObserved Automation Discrepancies
Hi Team ... I want to know the logic behind the Defender XDR Automation Engine . How it works ? I have observed Defender XDR Automation Engine Behavior contrary to expectations of identical incident and automation handling in both environments, discrepancies were observed. Specifically, incidents with high-severity alerts were automatically closed by Defender XDR's automation engine before reaching their SOC for review, raising concerns among clients and colleagues. Automation rules are clearly logged in the activity log, whereas actions performed by Microsoft Defender XDR are less transparent . A high-severity alert related to a phishing incident was closed by Defender XDR's automation, resulting in the associated incident being closed and removed from SOC review. Wherein the automation was not triggered by our own rules, but by Microsoft's Defender XDR, and sought clarification on the underlying logic.185Views2likes4CommentsWhy there is no Signature status for the new process in the DeviceProcessEvent table?
According to the schema, there is only field for checking the initiating (parent) process digital signature, named InitiatingProcessSignatureStatus. So we have information if the process that initiated the execution is signed. However, in many security use-cases it is important to know if the spawned (child) process is digitally signed. Let's assume that Winword.exe (signed) executed unsigned binary - this is definitely different situation than Winword.exe executing some signed binary (although both may be suspicious, or legitimate). I feel that some valuable information is not provided, and I'd like to know the reason. Is it related to the logging performance? Or some memory structures, that are present only for the already existing process?148Views0likes3CommentsEndpoint and EDR Ecosystem Connectors in Microsoft Sentinel
Most SOCs operate in mixed endpoint environments. Even if Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is your primary EDR, you may still run Cisco Secure Endpoint, WithSecure Elements, Knox, or Lookout in specific regions, subsidiaries, mobile fleets, or regulatory enclaves. The goal is not to replace any tool, but to standardize how signals become detections and response actions. This article explains an engineering-first approach: ingestion correctness, schema normalization, entity mapping, incident merging, and cross-platform response orchestration. Think of these connectors as four different lenses on endpoint risk. Two provide classic EDR detections (Cisco, WithSecure). Two provide mobile security and posture signals (Knox, Lookout). The highest-fidelity outcomes come from correlating them with Microsoft signals (Defender for Endpoint device telemetry, Entra ID sign-ins, and threat intelligence). Cisco Secure Endpoint Typical signal types include malware detections, exploit prevention events, retrospective detections, device isolation actions, and file/trajectory context. Cisco telemetry is often hash-centric (SHA256, file reputation) which makes it excellent for IOC matching and cross-EDR correlation. WithSecure Elements WithSecure Elements tends to provide strong behavioral detections and ransomware heuristics, often including process ancestry and behavioral classification. It complements hash-based detections by providing behavior and incident context that can be joined to Defender process events. Samsung Knox Asset Intelligence Knox is posture-heavy. Typical signals include compliance state, encryption status, root/jailbreak indicators, patch level, device model identifiers and policy violations. This data is extremely useful for identity correlation: it helps answer whether a successful sign-in came from a device that should be trusted. Lookout Mobile Threat Defense Lookout focuses on mobile threats such as malicious apps, phishing, risky networks (MITM), device compromise indicators, and risk scores. Lookout signals are critical for identity attack chains because mobile phishing is often the precursor to token theft or credential reuse. 2. Ingestion architecture: from vendor API to Sentinel tables Most third‑party connectors are API-based. In production, treat ingestion as a pipeline with reliability requirements. The standard pattern is vendor API → connector runtime (codeless connector or Azure Function) → DCE → DCR transform → Log Analytics table. Key engineering controls: Secrets and tokens should be stored in Azure Key Vault where supported; rotate and monitor auth failures. Use overlap windows (poll slightly more than the schedule interval) and deduplicate by stable event IDs. Use DCR transforms to normalize fields early (device/user/IP/severity) and to filter obviously low-value noise. Monitor connector health and ingestion lag; do not rely on ‘Connected’ status alone. Ingestion health checks (KQL) // Freshness & lag per connector table (adapt table names to your workspace) let lookback = 24h union isfuzzy=true (<CiscoTable> | extend Source="Cisco"), (<WithSecureTable> | extend Source="WithSecure"), (<KnoxTable> | extend Source="Knox"), (<LookoutTable> | extend Source="Lookout") | where TimeGenerated > ago(lookback) | summarize LastEvent=max(TimeGenerated), Events=count() by Source | extend IngestDelayMin = datetime_diff("minute", now(), LastEvent) | order by IngestDelayMin desc // Schema discovery (run after onboarding and after connector updates) Cisco | take 1 | getschema WithSecureTable | take 1 | getschema Knox | take 1 | getschema Lookout | take 1 | getschema 3. Normalization: make detections vendor-agnostic The most common failure mode in multi-EDR SOCs is writing separate rules per vendor. Instead, build one normalization function that outputs a stable schema. Then write rules once. Recommended canonical fields: Vendor, AlertId, EventTime, SeverityNormalized DeviceName (canonical), AccountUpn (canonical), SourceIP FileHash (when applicable), ThreatName/Category CorrelationKey (stable join key such as DeviceName + FileHash or DeviceName + AlertId) // Example NormalizeEndpoint() pattern. Replace column_ifexists(...) mappings after getschema(). let NormalizeEndpoint = () { union isfuzzy=true ( Cisco | extend Vendor="Cisco" | extend DeviceName=tostring(column_ifexists("hostname","")), AccountUpn=tostring(column_ifexists("user","")), SourceIP=tostring(column_ifexists("ip","")), FileHash=tostring(column_ifexists("sha256","")), ThreatName=tostring(column_ifexists("threat_name","")), SeverityNormalized=tolower(tostring(column_ifexists("severity",""))) ), ( WithSecure | extend Vendor="WithSecure" | extend DeviceName=tostring(column_ifexists("hostname","")), AccountUpn=tostring(column_ifexists("user","")), SourceIP=tostring(column_ifexists("ip","")), FileHash=tostring(column_ifexists("file_hash","")), ThreatName=tostring(column_ifexists("classification","")), SeverityNormalized=tolower(tostring(column_ifexists("risk_level",""))) ), ( Knox | extend Vendor="Knox" | extend DeviceName=tostring(column_ifexists("device_id","")), AccountUpn=tostring(column_ifexists("user","")), SourceIP="", FileHash="", ThreatName=strcat("Device posture: ", tostring(column_ifexists("compliance_state",""))), SeverityNormalized=tolower(tostring(column_ifexists("risk",""))) ), ( Lookout | extend Vendor="Lookout" | extend DeviceName=tostring(column_ifexists("device_id","")), AccountUpn=tostring(column_ifexists("user","")), SourceIP=tostring(column_ifexists("source_ip","")), FileHash="", ThreatName=tostring(column_ifexists("threat_type","")), SeverityNormalized=tolower(tostring(column_ifexists("risk_level",""))) ) | extend CorrelationKey = iff(isnotempty(FileHash), strcat(DeviceName, "|", FileHash), strcat(DeviceName, "|", ThreatName)) | project TimeGenerated, Vendor, DeviceName, AccountUpn, SourceIP, FileHash, ThreatName, SeverityNormalized, CorrelationKey, * } 4. Entity mapping and incident merging Sentinel’s incident experience improves dramatically when alerts include entity mapping. Map Host, Account, IP, and File (hash) where possible. Incident grouping should merge alerts by DeviceName and AccountUpn within a reasonable window (e.g., 6–24 hours) to avoid alert storms. 5. Correlation patterns that raise confidence High-confidence detections come from confirmation across independent sensors. These patterns reduce false positives while catching real compromise chains. 5.1 Multi-vendor confirmation (two EDRs agree) NormalizeEndpoint() | where TimeGenerated > ago(24h) | summarize Vendors=dcount(Vendor), VendorSet=make_set(Vendor, 10) by DeviceName | where Vendors >= 2 5.2 Third-party detection confirmed by Defender process telemetry let tp = NormalizeEndpoint() | where TimeGenerated > ago(6h) | where ThreatName has_any ("powershell","ransom","credential","exploit") | project TPTime=TimeGenerated, DeviceName, AccountUpn, Vendor, ThreatName tp | join kind=inner ( DeviceProcessEvents | where Timestamp > ago(6h) | where ProcessCommandLine has_any ("EncodedCommand","IEX","FromBase64String","rundll32","regsvr32") | project MDETime=Timestamp, DeviceName=tostring(DeviceName), Proc=ProcessCommandLine ) on DeviceName | where MDETime between (TPTime .. TPTime + 30m) | project TPTime, MDETime, DeviceName, Vendor, ThreatName, Proc 5.3 Mobile phishing signal followed by successful sign-in let mobile = NormalizeEndpoint() | where TimeGenerated > ago(24h) | where Vendor == "Lookout" and ThreatName has "phish" | project MTDTime=TimeGenerated, AccountUpn, DeviceName, SourceIP mobile | join kind=inner ( SigninLogs | where TimeGenerated > ago(24h) | where ResultType == 0 | project SigninTime=TimeGenerated, AccountUpn=tostring(UserPrincipalName), IPAddress, AppDisplayName ) on AccountUpn | where SigninTime between (MTDTime .. MTDTime + 30m) | project MTDTime, SigninTime, AccountUpn, DeviceName, SourceIP, IPAddress, AppDisplayName 5.4 Knox posture and high-risk sign-in let noncompliant = NormalizeEndpoint() | where TimeGenerated > ago(7d) | where Vendor=="Knox" and ThreatName has "NonCompliant" | project DeviceName, AccountUpn, KnoxTime=TimeGenerated noncompliant | join kind=inner ( SigninLogs | where TimeGenerated > ago(7d) | where RiskLevelDuringSignIn in ("high","medium") | project SigninTime=TimeGenerated, AccountUpn=tostring(UserPrincipalName), RiskLevelDuringSignIn, IPAddress ) on AccountUpn | where SigninTime between (KnoxTime .. KnoxTime + 2h) | project KnoxTime, SigninTime, AccountUpn, DeviceName, RiskLevelDuringSignIn, IPAddress 6. Response orchestration (SOAR) design Response should be consistent across vendors. Use a scoring model to decide whether to isolate a device, revoke tokens, or enforce Conditional Access. Prefer reversible actions, and log every automation step for audit. 6.1 Risk scoring to gate playbooks let SevScore = (s:string) { case(s=="critical",5,s=="high",4,s=="medium",2,1) } NormalizeEndpoint() | where TimeGenerated > ago(24h) | extend Score = SevScore(SeverityNormalized) | summarize RiskScore=sum(Score), Alerts=count(), Vendors=make_set(Vendor, 10) by DeviceName, AccountUpn | where RiskScore >= 8 | order by RiskScore desc High-severity playbooks typically execute: (1) isolate device via Defender (if onboarded), (2) revoke tokens in Entra ID, (3) trigger Conditional Access block, (4) notify and open ITSM ticket. Medium-severity playbooks usually tag the incident, add watchlist entries, and notify analysts.380Views8likes1CommentThreat Intelligence & Identity Ecosystem Connectors
Microsoft Sentinel’s capability can be greatly enhanced by integrating third-party threat intelligence (TI) feeds (e.g. GreyNoise, Team Cymru) with identity and access logs (e.g. OneLogin, PingOne). This article provides a detailed dive into each connector, data types, and best practices for enrichment and false-positive reduction. We cover how GreyNoise (including PureSignal/Scout), Team Cymru, OneLogin IAM, PingOne, and Keeper integrate with Sentinel – including available connectors, ingested schemas, and configuration. We then outline technical patterns for building TI-based lookup pipelines, scoring, and suppression rules to filter benign noise (e.g. GreyNoise’s known scanners), and enrich alerts with context from identity logs. We map attack chains (credential stuffing, lateral movement, account takeover) to Sentinel data, and propose KQL analytics rules and playbooks with MITRE ATT&CK mappings (e.g. T1110: Brute Force, T1595: Active Scanning). The report also includes guidance on deployment (ARM/Bicep examples), performance considerations for high-volume TI ingestion, and comparison tables of connector features. A mermaid flowchart illustrates the data flow from TI and identity sources into Sentinel analytics. All recommendations are drawn from official documentation and industry sources. Threat Intel & Identity Connectors Overview GreyNoise (TI Feed): GreyNoise provides “internet background noise” intelligence on IPs seen scanning or probing the Internet. The Sentinel GreyNoise Threat Intelligence connector (Azure Marketplace) pulls data via GreyNoise’s API into Sentinel’s ThreatIntelligenceIndicator table. It uses a daily Azure Function to fetch indicators (IP addresses and metadata like classification, noise, last_seen) and injects them as STIX-format indicators (Network IPs with provider “GreyNoise”). This feed can then be queried in KQL. Authentication requires a GreyNoise API key and a Sentinel workspace app with Contributor rights. GreyNoise’s goal is to help “filter out known opportunistic traffic” so analysts can focus on real threats. Official docs describe deploying the content pack and workbook template. Ingested data: IP-based indicators (malicious vs. benign scans), classifications (noise, riot, etc.), organization names, last-seen dates. All fields from GreyNoise’s IP lookup (e.g. classification, last_seen) appear in ThreatIntelligenceIndicator.NetworkDestinationIP, IndicatorProvider="GreyNoise", and related fields. Query: ThreatIntelligenceIndicator | where IndicatorProvider == "GreyNoise" | summarize arg_max(TimeGenerated, *) by NetworkDestinationIP This yields the latest GreyNoise record per IP. Team Cymru Scout (TI Context): Team Cymru’s PureSignal™ Scout is a TI enrichment platform. The Team Cymru Scout connector (via Azure Marketplace) ingests contextual data (not raw logs) about IPs, domains, and account usage into Sentinel custom tables. It runs via an Azure Function that, given IP or domain inputs, populates tables like Cymru_Scout_IP_Data_* and Cymru_Scout_Domain_Data_CL. For example, an IP query yields multiple tables: Cymru_Scout_IP_Data_Foundation_CL, ..._OpenPorts_CL, ..._PDNS_CL, etc., containing open ports, passive DNS history, X.509 cert info, fingerprint data, etc. This feed requires a Team Cymru account (username/password) to access the Scout API. Data types: Structured TI metadata by IP/domain. No native ThreatIndicator insertion; instead, analysts query these tables to enrich events (e.g. join on SourceIP). The Sentintel TechCommunity notes that Scout “enriches alerts with real-time context on IPs, domains, and adversary infrastructure” and can help “reduce false positives”. OneLogin IAM (Identity Logs): The OneLogin IAM solution (Microsoft Sentinel content pack) ingests OneLogin platform events and user info via OneLogin’s REST API. Using the Codeless Connector Framework, it pulls from OneLogin’s Events API and Users API, storing data in custom tables OneLoginEventsV2_CL and OneLoginUsersV2_CL. Typical events include user sign-ins, MFA actions, app accesses, admin changes, etc. Prerequisites: create an OpenID Connect app in OneLogin (for client ID/secret) and register it in Azure (Global Admin). The connector queries hourly (or on schedule), within OneLogin’s rate limit of 5000 calls/hour. Data mapping: OneLoginEventsV2_CL (CL suffix indicates custom log) holds event records (time, user, IP, event type, result, etc.); OneLoginUsersV2_CL contains user account attributes. These can be joined or used in analytics. For example, a query might look for failed login events: OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where Event_type_s == "UserSessionStart" and Result_s == "Failed" (Actual field names depend on schema.) PingOne (Identity Logs): The PingOne Audit connector ingests audit activity from the PingOne Identity platform via its REST API. It creates the table PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL. This includes administrator actions, user logins, console events, etc. You configure a PingOne API client (Client ID/Secret) and set up the Codeless Connector Framework. Logs are retrieved (with attention to PingOne’s license-based rate limits) and appended to the custom table. Analysts can query, for instance, PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL for events like MFA failures or profile changes. Keeper (Password Vault Logs – optional): Keeper, a password management platform, can forward security events to Sentinel via Azure Monitor. As of latest docs, logs are sent to a custom log table (commonly KeeperLogs_CL) using Azure Data Collection Rules. In Keeper’s guide, you register an Azure AD app (“KeeperLogging”) and configure Azure Monitor data collection; then in the Keeper Admin Console you specify the DCR endpoint. Keeper events (e.g. user logins, vault actions, admin changes) are ingested into the table named (e.g.) Custom-KeeperLogs_CL. Authentication uses the app’s client ID/secret and a monitor endpoint URL. This is a bulk ingest of records, rather than a scheduled pull. Data ingested: custom Keeper events with fields like user, action, timestamp. Keeper’s integration is essentially via Azure Monitor (in the older Azure Sentinel approach). Connector Configuration & Data Ingestion Authentication and Rate Limits: Most connectors require API keys or OAuth credentials. GreyNoise and Team Cymru use single keys/credentials, with the Azure Function secured by a Managed Identity. OneLogin and PingOne use client ID/secret and must respect their API limits (OneLogin ~5k calls/hour; PingOne depends on licensing). GreyNoise’s enterprise API allows bulk lookups; the community API is limited (10/day for free), so production integration requires an Enterprise plan. Sentinel Tables: Data is inserted either into built-in tables or custom tables. GreyNoise feeds the ThreatIntelligenceIndicator table, populating fields like NetworkDestinationIP and ThreatSeverity (higher if classified “malicious”). Team Cymru’s Scout connector creates many Cymru_Scout_*_CL tables. OneLogin’s solution populates OneLoginEventsV2_CL and OneLoginUsersV2_CL. PingOne yields PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL. Keeper logs appear in a custom table (e.g. KeeperLogs_CL) as shown in Keeper’s guide. Note: Sentinel’s built-in identity tables (IdentityInfo, SigninLogs) are typically for Microsoft identities; third-party logs can be mapped to them via parsers or custom analytic rules but by default arrive in these custom tables. Data Types & Schema: Threat Indicators: In ThreatIntelligenceIndicator, GreyNoise IPs appear as NetworkDestinationIP with associated fields (e.g. ThreatSeverity, IndicatorProvider="GreyNoise", ConfidenceScore, etc.). (Future STIX tables may be used after 2025.) Custom CL Logs: OneLogin events may include fields such as user_id_s, user_login_s, client_ip_s, event_time, etc. (The published parser issues indicate fields like app_name_s, role_id_d, etc.) PingOne logs include eventType, user, clientIP, result. Keeper logs contain Action, UserName, etc. These raw fields can be normalized in analytic rules or parsed by data transformations. Identity Info: Although not directly ingested, identity attributes from OneLogin/PingOne (e.g. user roles, group IDs) could be periodically fetched and synced to Sentinel (via custom logic) to populate IdentityInfo records, aiding user-centric hunts. Configuration Steps : GreyNoise: In Sentinel Content Hub, install the GreyNoise ThreatIntel solution. Enter your GreyNoise API key when prompted. The solution deploys an Azure Function (requires write access to Functions) and sets up an ingestion schedule. Verify the ThreatIntelligenceIndicator table is receiving GreyNoise entries Team Cymru: From Marketplace install “Team Cymru Scout”. Provide Scout credentials. The solution creates an Azure Function app. It defines a workflow to ingest or lookup IPs/domains. (Often, analysts trigger lookups rather than scheduled ingestion, since Scout is lookup-based.) Ensure roles: the Function’s managed identity needs Sentinel contributor rights. OneLogin: Use the Data Connectors UI. Authenticate OneLogin by creating a new Sentinel Web API authentication (with OneLogin’s client ID/secret). Enable both “OneLogin Events” and “OneLogin Users”. No agent is needed. After setup, data flows into OneLoginEventsV2_CL. PingOne: Similarly, configure the PingOne connector. Use the PingOne administrative console to register an OAuth client. In Sentinel’s connector blade, enter the client ID/secret and specify desired log types (Audit, maybe IDP logs). Confirm PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL populates hourly. Keeper: Register an Azure AD app (“KeeperLogging”) and assign it Monitoring roles (Publisher/Contributor) to your workspace and data collection endpoint. Create an Azure Data Collection Rule (DCR) and table (e.g. KeeperLogs_CL). In Keeper’s Admin Console (Reporting & Alerts → Azure Monitor), enter the tenant ID, client ID/secret, and the DCR endpoint URL (format: https://<DCE>/dataCollectionRules/<DCR_ID>/streams/<table>?api-version=2023-01-01). Keeper will then push logs. KQL Lookup: To enrich a Sentinel event with these feeds, you might write: OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where EventType == "UserLogin" and Result == "Success" | extend UserIP = ClientIP_s | join kind=inner ( ThreatIntelligenceIndicator | where IndicatorProvider == "GreyNoise" and ThreatSeverity >= 3 | project NetworkDestinationIP, Category ) on $left.UserIP == $right.NetworkDestinationIP This joins OneLogin sign-ins with GreyNoise’s list of malicious scanners. Enrichment & False-Positive Reduction IOC Enrichment Pipelines: A robust TI pipeline in Sentinel often uses Lookup Tables and Functions. For example, ingested TI (from GreyNoise or Team Cymru) can be stored in reference data or scheduled lookup tables to enrich incoming logs. Patterns include: - Normalization: Normalize diverse feeds into common STIX schema fields (e.g. all IPs to NetworkDestinationIP, all domains to DomainName) so rules can treat them uniformly. - Confidence Scoring: Assign a confidence score to each indicator (from vendor or based on recency/frequency). For GreyNoise, for instance, you might use classification (e.g. “malicious” vs. “benign”) and history to score IP reputation. In Sentinel’s ThreatIntelligenceIndicator.ConfidenceScore field you can set values (higher for high-confidence IOCs, lower for noisy ones). - TTL & Freshness: Some indicators (e.g. active C2 domains) expire, so setting a Time-To-Live is critical. Sentinel ingestion rules or parsers should use ExpirationDateTime or ValidUntil on indicators to avoid stale IOCs. For example, extend ValidUntil only if confidence is high. - Conflict Resolution: When the same IOC comes from multiple sources (e.g. an IP in both GreyNoise and TeamCymru), you can either merge metadata or choose the highest confidence. One approach: use the highest threat severity from any source. Sentinel’s ThreatType tags (e.g. malicious-traffic) can accommodate multiple providers. False-Positive Reduction Techniques: - GreyNoise Noise Scoring: GreyNoise’s primary utility is filtering. If an IP is labeled noise=true (i.e. just scanning, not actively malicious), rules can deprioritize alerts involving that IP. E.g. suppress an alert if its source IP appears in GreyNoise as benign scanner. - Team Cymru Reputation: Use Scout data to gauge risk; e.g. if an IP’s open port fingerprint or domain history shows no malicious tags, it may be low-risk. Conversely, known hostile IP (e.g. seen in ransomware networks) should raise alert level. Scout’s thousands of context tags help refine a binary IOC. - Contextual Identity Signals: Leverage OneLogin/PingOne context to filter alerts. For instance, if a sign-in event is associated with a high-risk location (e.g. new country) and the IP is a GreyNoise scan, flag it. If an IP is marked benign, drop or suppress. Correlate login failures: if a single IP causes many failures across multiple users, it might be credential stuffing (T1110) – but if that IP is known benign scanner, consider it low priority. - Thresholding & Suppression: Build analytic suppression rules. Example: only alert on >5 failed logins in 5 min from IP and that IP is not noise. Or ignore DNS queries to domains that TI flags as benign/whitelisted. Apply tag-based rules: some connectors allow tagging known internal assets or trusted scan ranges to avoid alerts. Use GreyNoise to suppress alerts: SecurityEvent | where EventID == 4625 and Account != "SYSTEM" | join kind=leftanti ( ThreatIntelligenceIndicator | where IndicatorProvider == "GreyNoise" and Classification == "benign" | project NetworkSourceIP ) on $left.IPAddress == $right.NetworkSourceIP This rule filters out Windows 4625 login failures originating from GreyNoise-known benign scanners. Identity Attack Chains & Detection Rules Modern account attacks often involve sequential activities. By combining identity logs with TI, we can detect advanced patterns. Below are common chains and rule ideas: Credential Stuffing (MITRE T1110): Often seen as many login failures followed by a success. Detection: Look for multiple failed OneLogin/PingOne sign-ins for the same or different accounts from a single IP, then a success. Enrich with GreyNoise: if the source IP is in GreyNoise (indicating scanning), raise severity. Rule: let SuspiciousIP = OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where EventType == "UserSessionStart" and Result == "Failed" | summarize CountFailed=count() by ClientIP_s | where CountFailed > 5; OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where EventType == "UserSessionStart" and Result == "Success" and ClientIP_s in (SuspiciousIP | project ClientIP_s) | join kind=inner ( ThreatIntelligenceIndicator | where ThreatType == "ip" | extend GreyNoiseClass = tostring(Classification) | project IP=NetworkSourceIP, GreyNoiseClass ) on $left.ClientIP_s == $right.IP | where GreyNoiseClass == "malicious" | project TimeGenerated, Account_s, ClientIP_s, GreyNoiseClass Tactics: Initial Access (T1110) – Severity: High. Account Takeover / Impossible Travel (T1198): Sign-ins from unusual geographies or devices. Detection: Compare user’s current sign-in location against historical baseline. Use OneLogin/PingOne logs: if two logins by same user occur in different countries with insufficient time to travel, trigger. Enrich: if the login IP is also known infrastructure (Team Cymru PDNS, etc.), raise alert. Rule: PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL | where EventType_s == "UserLogin" | extend loc = tostring(City_s) + ", " + tostring(Country_s) | sort by TimeGenerated desc | partition by User_s ( where TimeGenerated < ago(24h) // check last day | summarize count(), min(TimeGenerated), max(TimeGenerated) ) | where max_TimeGenerated - min_TimeGenerated < 1h and count_>1 and (range(loc) contains ",") | project User_s, TimeGenerated, loc (This pseudo-query checks multiple locations in <1 hour.) Tactics: Reconnaissance / Initial Access – Severity: Medium. Lateral Movement (T1021): Use of an account on multiple systems/apps. Detection: Two or more distinct application/service authentications by same user within a short time. Use OneLogin app-id fields or audit logs for access. If these are followed by suspicious network activity (e.g. contacting C2 via GreyNoise), escalate. Tactics: Lateral Movement – Severity: High. Privilege Escalation (T1098): If an admin account is changed or MFA factors reset in OneLogin/PingOne, especially after anomalous login. Detection: Monitor OneLogin admin events (“User updated”, “MFA enrolled/removed”). Cross-check the actor’s IP against threat feeds. Tactics: Credential Access – Severity: High. Analytics Rules (KQL) Below are six illustrative Sentinel analytics rules combining TI and identity logs. Each rule shows logic, tactics, severity, and MITRE IDs. (Adjust field names per your schemas and normalize CL tables as needed.) Multiple Failed Logins from Malicious Scanner (T1110) – High severity. Detect credential stuffing by identifying >5 failed login attempts from the same IP, where that IP is classified as malicious by GreyNoise. let BadIP = OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where EventType == "UserSessionStart" and Result == "Failed" | summarize attempts=count() by SourceIP_s | where attempts >= 5; OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where EventType == "UserSessionStart" and Result == "Success" and SourceIP_s in (BadIP | project SourceIP_s) | join ( ThreatIntelligenceIndicator | where IndicatorProvider == "GreyNoise" and ThreatSeverity >= 4 | project MaliciousIP=NetworkDestinationIP ) on $left.SourceIP_s == $right.MaliciousIP | extend AttackFlow="CredentialStuffing", MITRE="T1110" | project TimeGenerated, UserName_s, SourceIP_s, MaliciousIP Logic: Correlate failed-then-success login from same IP plus GreyNoise-malign classification. Impossible Travel / Anomalous Geo (T1198) – Medium severity. A user signs in from two distant locations within an hour. // Get last two logins per user let lastLogins = PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL | where EventType_s == "UserLogin" and Outcome_s == "Success" | sort by TimeGenerated desc | summarize first_place=arg_max(TimeGenerated, City_s, Country_s, SourceIP_s, TimeGenerated) by User_s; let prevLogins = PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL | where EventType_s == "UserLogin" and Outcome_s == "Success" | sort by TimeGenerated desc | summarize last_place=arg_min(TimeGenerated, City_s, Country_s, SourceIP_s, TimeGenerated) by User_s; lastLogins | join kind=inner prevLogins on User_s | extend dist=geo_distance_2points(first_place_City_s, first_place_Country_s, last_place_City_s, last_place_Country_s) | where dist > 1000 and (first_place_TimeGenerated - last_place_TimeGenerated) < 1h | project Time=first_place_TimeGenerated, User=User_s, From=last_place_Country_s, To=first_place_Country_s, MITRE="T1198" Logic: Compute geographic distance between last two logins; flag if too far too fast. Suspicious Admin Change (T1098) – High severity. Detect a change to admin settings (like role assign or MFA reset) via PingOne, from a high-risk IP (Team Cymru or GreyNoise) or after failed logins. PingOne_AuditActivitiesV2_CL | where EventType_s in ("UserMFAReset", "UserRoleChange") // example admin events | extend ActorIP = tostring(InitiatingIP_s) | join ( ThreatIntelligenceIndicator | where ThreatSeverity >= 3 | project BadIP=NetworkDestinationIP ) on $left.ActorIP == $right.BadIP | extend MITRE="T1098" | project TimeGenerated, ActorUser_s, Action=EventType_s, ActorIP Logic: Raise if an admin action originates from known bad IP. Malicious Domain Access (T1498): Medium severity. Internal logs (e.g. DNS or Web proxy) show access to a domain listed by Team Cymru Scout as C2 or reconnaissance. DeviceDnsEvents | where QueryType == "A" | join kind=inner ( Cymru_Scout_Domain_Data_CL | where ThreatTag_s == "Command-and-Control" | project DomainName_s ) on $left.QueryText == $right.DomainName_s | extend MITRE="T1498" | project TimeGenerated, DeviceName, QueryText Logic: Correlate internal DNS queries with Scout’s flagged C2 domains. (Requires that domain data is ingested or synced.) Brute-Force Firewall Blocked IP (T1110): Low to Medium severity. Firewall logs show an IP blocked for many attempts, and that IP is not noise per GreyNoise (i.e., malicious scanner). AzureDiagnostics | where Category == "NetworkSecurityGroupFlowEvent" and msg_s contains "DIRECTION=Inbound" and Action_s == "Deny" | summarize attemptCount=count() by IP = SourceIp_s, FlowTime=bin(TimeGenerated, 1h) | where attemptCount > 50 | join kind=leftanti ( ThreatIntelligenceIndicator | where IndicatorProvider == "GreyNoise" and Classification == "benign" | project NoiseIP=NetworkDestinationIP ) on $left.IP == $right.NoiseIP | extend MITRE="T1110" | project IP, attemptCount, FlowTime Logic: Many inbound denies (possible brute force) from an IP not whitelisted by GreyNoise. New Device Enrolled (T1078): Low severity. A user enrolls a new device or location for MFA after unusual login. OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where EventType == "NewDeviceEnrollment" | join kind=inner ( OneLoginEventsV2_CL | where EventType == "UserSessionStart" and Result == "Success" | top 1 by TimeGenerated asc // assume prior login | project User_s, loginTime=TimeGenerated, loginIP=ClientIP_s ) on User_s | where loginIP != DeviceIP_s | extend MITRE="T1078" | project TimeGenerated, User_s, DeviceIP_s, loginIP Logic: Flag if new device added (strong evidence of account compromise). Note: The above rules are illustrative. Tune threshold values (e.g. attempt counts) to your environment. Map the event fields (EventType, Result, etc.) to your actual schema. Use Severity mapping in rule configs as indicated and tag with MITRE IDs for context. TI-Driven Playbooks and Automation Automated response can amplify TI. Patterns include: - IOC Blocking: On alert (e.g. suspicious IP login), an automation runbook can call Azure Firewall, Azure Defender, or external firewall APIs to block the offending IP. For instance, a Logic App could trigger on the analytic alert, use the TI feed IP, and call AzFWNetworkRule PowerShell to add a deny rule. - Enrichment Workflow: After an alert triggers, an Azure Logic App playbook can enrich the incident by querying TI APIs. E.g., given an IP from the alert, call GreyNoise API or Team Cymru Scout API in real-time (via HTTP action), add the classification into incident details, and tag the incident accordingly (e.g. GreyNoiseStatus: malicious). This adds context for the analyst. - Alert Suppression: Implement playbook-driven suppression. For example, an alert triggered by an external IP can invoke a playbook that checks GreyNoise; if the IP is benign, the playbook can auto-close the alert or mark as false-positive, reducing analyst load. - Automated TI Feed Updates: Periodically fetch open-source or commercial TI and use a playbook to push new indicators into Sentinel’s TI store via the Graph API. - Incident Enrichment: On incident creation, a playbook could query OneLogin/PingOne for additional user details (like department or location via their APIs) and add as note in the incident. Performance, Scalability & Costs TI feeds and identity logs can be high-volume. Key considerations: - Data Ingestion Costs: Every log and TI indicator ingested into Sentinel is billable by the GB. Bulk TI indicator ingestion (like GreyNoise pulling thousands of IPs/day) can add storage costs. Use Sentinel’s Data Collection Rules (DCR) to apply ingestion-time filters (e.g. only store indicators above a confidence threshold) to reduce volume. GreyNoise feed is typically modest (since it’s daily, maybe thousands of IPs). Identity logs (OneLogin/PingOne) depend on org size – could be megabytes per day. Use sentinel ingestion sl analytic filters to drop low-value logs. - Query Performance: Custom log tables (OneLogin, PingOne, KeeperLogs_CL) can grow large. Periodically archive old data (e.g. export >90 days to storage, then purge). Use materialized views or scheduled summary tables for heavy queries (e.g. pre-aggregate hourly login counts). For threat indicator tables, leverage built-in indices on IndicatorId and NetworkIP for fast joins. Use project-away _* to remove metadata from large join queries. - Retention & Storage: Configure retention per table. If historical TI is less needed, set shorter retention. Use Azure Monitor’s tiering/Archive for seldom-used data. For large TI volumes (e.g. feeding multiple TIPs), consider using Sentinel Data Lake (or connecting Log Analytics to ADLS Gen2) to offload raw ingest cheaply. - Scale-Out Architecture: For very large environments, use multiple Sentinel workspaces (e.g. regional) and aggregate logs via Azure Lighthouse or Sentinel Fusion. TI feeds can be shared: one workspace collects TI, then distribute to others via Azure Sentinel’s TI management (feeds can be published and shared cross-workspaces). - Connector Limits: API rate limits dictate update frequency. Schedule connectors accordingly (e.g. daily for TI, hourly for identity events). Avoid hourly pulls of already static data (users list can be daily). For OneLogin/PingOne, use incremental tokens or webhooks if possible to reduce load. - Monitoring Health: Use Sentinel’s Log Analytics and Monitor metrics to track ingestion volume and connector errors. For example, monitor the Functions running GreyNoise/Scout for failures or throttling. Deployment Checklist & Guide Prepare Sentinel Workspace: Ensure a Log Analytics workspace with Sentinel enabled. Record the workspace ID and region. Register Applications: In Azure AD, create and note any Service Principal needed for functions or connectors (e.g. a Sentinel-managed identity for Functions). In each vendor portal, register API apps and credentials (OneLogin OIDC App, PingOne API client, Keeper AD app). Network & Security: If needed, configure firewall rules to allow outbound to vendor APIs. Install Connectors: In Sentinel Content Hub or Marketplace, install the solutions for GreyNoise TI, Team Cymru Scout, OneLogin IAM, PingOne. Follow each wizard to input credentials. Verify the “Data Types” (Logs, Alerts, etc.) are enabled. Create Tables & Parsers (if manual): For Keeper or unsupported logs, manually create custom tables (via DCR in Azure portal). Import JSON to define fields as shown in Keeper’s docs Test Data Flow: After each setup, wait 1–24 hours and run a simple query on the destination table (e.g. OneLoginEventsV2_CL | take 5) to confirm ingestion. Deploy Ingestion Rules: Use Sentinel Threat intelligence ingestion rules to fine-tune feeds (e.g. mark high-confidence feeds to extend expiration). Optionally tag/whitelist known good. Configure Analytics: Enable or create rules using the KQL above. Place them in the correct threat hunting or incident rule categories (Credential Access, Lateral Movement, etc.). Assign appropriate alert severity. Set up Playbooks: For automated actions (alert enrichment, IOC blocking), create Logic App playbooks. Test with mock alerts (dry run) to ensure correct API calls. Tuning & Baseline: After initial alerts, tune queries (thresholds, whitelists) to reduce noise. Maintain suppression lists (e.g. internal pentest IPs). Use the MITRE mapping in rule details for clarity. Documentation & Training: Document field mappings (e.g. OneLoginEvents fields), and train SOC staff on new TI-enriched alert fields.
