Unlocking value with Microsoft Sentinel data lake
As security telemetry explodes and AI‑driven defense becomes the norm, it is critical to centralize and retain massive volumes of data for deep analysis and long‑term insights. Security teams are fundamentally rethinking how they manage, analyze, and act on security data. The Microsoft Sentinel data lake is a game changer for modern security operations, providing the foundation for agentic defense, deeper insights, and graph‑based enrichment. Security teams can centralize signals, simplify data management, and run advanced analytics, without compromising costs or performance. Across industries, organizations are using the Sentinel data lake to unify distributed data, search across years of telemetry, correlate sophisticated threats using graph-powered analytics, and operationalize agentic workflows at scale, turning raw security data into actionable intelligence. In this blog we will highlight some of the ways Sentinel data lake is transforming modern security operations. Unified, cost-effective security data foundation The challenge Many organizations tell us they have been forced to make difficult tradeoffs: high ingestion costs meant selectively choosing which logs to keep, often leaving data that might have been critical during an investigation. This selective logging creates blind spots, fragmented visibility, and unnecessary operational complexity across security operations. As a result, CISOs increasingly view selective logging as a material security risk to their organizations. How Sentinel data lake helps The Sentinel data lake removes these constraints by providing a cost‑effective, security‑optimized foundation for centralizing large volumes of security data. With the data lake, security teams can finally retain the breadth of telemetry they need without the financial penalties traditionally associated with long‑term security data retention. Organizations benefit from: A unified security data foundation designed to simplify investigations Long‑term, cost‑effective retention for up to 12 years Flexible querying across high‑volume data sets 6x data compression in storage, enabling significantly lower retention costs at scale Why it matters By unifying data in a purpose-built security data lake, SOC teams gain reliable, comprehensive visibility without the budget limitations that once forced them to choose between cost and completeness. This stronger foundation not only improves day‑to‑day investigations; it unlocks the advanced analytics and AI‑powered capabilities that future proof SOCs for AI driven defense. With full visibility restored, organizations are better equipped to identify emerging threats, respond with confidence, and modernize their security operations on their own terms. Historical security analysis The challenge SOC teams often struggle with short SIEM retention windows that limit how far back investigators can look. Critical logs age out before teams can fully piece together an attack, making root‑cause analysis slow and incomplete. This challenge grows when incidents span long periods, when new threat indicators emerge, or when organizations need to understand how a compromise evolved over time. Without access to historical telemetry, analysts face significant blind spots that weaken both investigations and hunting efforts. How Sentinel data lake helps The Sentinel data lake solves this by enabling organizations to retain and analyze years of security data at a fraction of the cost of traditional SIEM retention. Teams can use KQL and notebooks to run deep, long‑range investigations, perform advanced anomaly detection, and correlate older events that would have been impossible to recover in the analytics tier. Historical data enables retro analysis when new threat intel emerges. SOC teams can instantly look back to validate whether newly discovered indicators, techniques, or threat actors were already present in their environment. Organizations benefit from: Years of cost‑effective retention that extend far beyond traditional SIEM windows Deep forensic investigations using KQL and notebooks over historical data Improved anomaly detection with long‑range patterns and baselines Faster scoping of incidents with access to full historical context Why it matters By unlocking access to years of searchable telemetry, SOC teams are no longer limited by short retention windows or forced to make compromises that weaken security. They can retrace the full scope of an incident, hunt for slow‑moving threats, and quickly respond to new IOCs, powered by the historical context modern attacks demand. This long‑range visibility strengthens both detection and response, giving organizations the confidence and continuity they need to stay ahead of evolving threats. Graph-powered attack-path visibility and entity correlation The challenge Traditional investigations often rely on reviewing logs in isolation, making it difficult to connect identity activity, endpoint behavior, cloud access, and threat intelligence in a meaningful way. As a result, SOC teams find it difficult to trace attack paths, understand lateral movement, and build complete investigative context. Without a unified view of how entities relate to each other, investigations become slow, fragmented, and are prone to missed signals. How Sentinel data lake helps The Sentinel data lake enables powerful graph‑based correlation across identity, asset, activity, and threat intelligence data. Using graph models, analysts can visually explore how entities connect, identify hidden attack paths, pinpoint exposed routes to sensitive assets, and understand the full blast radius of compromised accounts or devices. This graph‑driven context turns complex telemetry into intuitive visuals that dramatically accelerate both pre‑breach context and incident response. Organizations benefit from: Graph‑powered correlation across identity, asset, activity, and threat intelligence data Visualization of attack paths and lateral movement that logs alone cannot expose Context‑rich investigations supported by relationship‑driven insights Greater cross‑domain visibility that strengthens both detection and response Why it matters With graph‑powered context, SOC teams move beyond event‑by‑event analysis and gain a deep understanding of how their environment behaves as a system. This visibility speeds investigations, strengthens posture before attackers strike, and provides analysts with a clear, intuitive way to uncover relationships that traditional log searches simply can’t reveal. Agentic workflows powered by MCP server The challenge SOC teams are under constant pressure from rising alert volumes, repetitive manual investigative steps, and skill gaps that make consistent triage challenging. Even experienced analysts struggle to reason across large, distributed datasets, and junior analysts often lack the experience needed to understand complex threat scenarios. These challenges slow down response and increase the risk of missed signals. How the Sentinel data lake helps The Sentinel data lake, combined with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enables AI agents to reason over unified, contextual security data using natural‑language prompts. Analysts can ask questions directly: “Does this user have other suspicious activity?” or “What assets are at risk?”, and agents automatically interpret the request, query the data lake, and return actionable insights. These AI‑powered workflows reduce repetitive effort, strengthen investigative consistency, and help teams operate at a higher level of speed and precision. Organizations benefit from: AI‑assisted investigations that reduce manual effort and accelerate triage Agentic workflows powered by MCP to automate multi‑step reasoning over unified data Natural‑language interactions that make complex queries accessible to all analysts Consistent, high‑quality analysis regardless of analyst experience level Why it matters By introducing agentic, AI‑driven workflows, SOC teams can automate time‑consuming tasks, reduce alert fatigue, and empower every analyst, regardless of seniority, to quickly arrive at high‑quality insights. This shift not only accelerates investigations but also frees teams to focus on high‑value, proactive security work. As organizations continue modernizing their SOC, agentic workflows represent a major step forward in bridging the gap between human expertise and scalable, AI‑powered analysis. The future of security operations starts here The Sentinel data lake is becoming the backbone of modern security operations—unifying security data, expanding investigative reach, and enabling graph‑driven, AI‑powered analysis at scale. By centralizing telemetry on a cost‑effective, AI‑ready foundation, and running advanced analytics on that data, security teams can move beyond fragmented insights to correlate threats with clarity and act faster with confidence. These four use cases are just the beginning. Whether you’re strengthening investigations, advancing threat hunting, operationalizing AI, or preparing your SOC for what’s next, the Sentinel data lake provides the scale, intelligence, and flexibility to reduce complexity and stay ahead of evolving threats. Now is the time to accelerate toward a more resilient, adaptive, and future‑ready security posture. Get started with Microsoft Sentinel data lake todayWhat’s new in Microsoft Sentinel: February 2026

We are happy to announce a new data connector that is available to the public: the Microsoft Copilot data connector for Microsoft Sentinel. The new Microsoft Copilot data connector will allow for audit logs and activities generated by different offerings of Copilot to be ingested into Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Sentinel data lake. This allows for Copilot activities to be leveraged within Microsoft Sentinel features such as analytic rules/custom detections, Workbooks, automation, and more. This also allows for Copilot data to be sent to Sentinel data lake, which opens the possibilities for integrations with custom graphs, MCP server, and more while offering lower cost ingestion and longer retention as needed. Eligibility for the Connector The connector is available for all customers within Microsoft Sentinel, but will only ingest data for environments that have access to Copilot licenses and SCUs as the activities rely on Copilot being used. These logs are available via the Purview Unified Audit Log (UAL) feed, which is available and enabled for all users by default. A big value of this new connector is that it eliminates the need for users to go to the Purview Portal in order to see these activities, as they are proactively brought into the workspace, enabling SOCs to generate detections and proactively threat hunt on this information. Note: This data connector is a single-tenant connector, meaning that it will ingest the data for the entire tenant that it resides in. This connector is not designed to handle multi-tenant configurations. What’s Included in the Connector The following are record types from Office 365 Management API that will be supported as part of this connector: 261 CopilotInteraction 310 CreateCopilotPlugin 311 UpdateCopilotPlugin 312 DeleteCopilotPlugin 313 EnableCopilotPlugin 314 DisableCopilotPlugin 315 CreateCopilotWorkspace 316 UpdateCopilotWorkspace 317 DeleteCopilotWorkspace 318 EnableCopilotWorkspace 319 DisableCopilotWorkspace 320 CreateCopilotPromptBook 321 UpdateCopilotPromptBook 322 DeleteCopilotPromptBook 323 EnableCopilotPromptBook 324 DisableCopilotPromptBook 325 UpdateCopilotSettings 334 TeamCopilotInteraction 363 Microsoft365CopilotScheduledPrompt 371 OutlookCopilotAutomation 389 CopilotForSecurityTrigger 390 CopilotAgentManagement These are great options for monitoring users who have permission to make changes to Copilot across the environment. This data can assist with identifying if there are anomalous interactions taking place between users and Copilot, unauthorized attempts of access, or malicious prompt usage. How to Deploy the Connector The connector is available via the Microsoft Sentinel Content Hub and can be installed today. To find the connector: Within the Defender Portal, expand the Microsoft Sentinel navigation in the left menu. Expand Configuration and select Content Hub. Within the search bar, search for “Copilot”. Click on the solution that appears and click Install. Once the solution is installed, the connector can be configured by clicking on the connector within the solution and selecting Open Connector Page. To enable the connector, the user will need either Global Administrator or Security Administrator on the tenant. Once the connector is enabled, the data will be sent to the table named CopilotActivity. Note: Data ingestion costs apply when using this data connector. Pricing will be based on the settings for the Microsoft Sentinel workspace or at the Microsoft Sentinel data lake tier pricing. As this data connector is in Public Preview, users can start deploying this connector right now!

Looking to understand where audit activities for Sentinel Platform are surfaced? Look no further than this writeup! With the launch of the Sentinel Platform, a new suite of features for the Microsoft Sentinel service, users may find themselves wanting to monitor who is using these new features and how. This blog sets out to highlight how auditing and monitoring can be achieved and where this data can be found. *Thank you to my teammates Ian Parramore and David Hoerster for reviewing and contributing to this blog.* What are Audit Logs? Audit logs are documented activities that are eligible for usage within SOC tools, such as a SIEM. These logs are meant to exist as a paper trail to show: Who performed an action What type of action was performed When the action was performed Where the action was performed How the action was performed Audit logs can be generated by many platforms, whether they are Microsoft services or platforms outside of the Microsoft ecosystem. Each source is a great option for a SOC to monitor. Types of Audit Logs Audit logs can vary in how they are classified or where they are placed. Focusing just on Microsoft, the logs can vary based on platform. A few examples are: - Windows: Events generated by the operating system that are available in EventViewer - Azure – Diagnostic logs generated by services that can be sent to Azure Log Analytics - Defender – Audit logs generated by Defender services that are sent to M365 Audit Logs What is the CloudAppEvents Table? The CloudAppEvents table is a data table that is provided via Advanced Hunting in Defender. This table contains events of applications being used within the environment. This table is also a destination for Microsoft audit logs that are being sent to Purview. Purview’s audit log blade includes logs from platforms like M365, Defender, and now Sentinel Platform. How to Check if the Purview Unified Audit Logging is Enabled For CloudAppEvents to receive data, Audit Logging within Purview must be enabled and M365 needs to be configured to be connected as a Defender for Cloud Apps component. Enabling Audit Logs By default, Purview Auditing is enabled by default within environments. In the event that they have been disabled, Audit logs can be enabled and checked via PowerShell. To do so, the user must have the Audit Logs role within Exchange Online. The command to run is: Get-AdminAuditLogConfig | Format-List UnifiedAuditLogIngestionEnabled The result will either be true if auditing is already turned on, and false if it is disabled. If the result is false, the setting will need to be enabled. To do so: Install the Exchange Online module with: Import-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement Connect and authenticate to Exchange Online with an interactive window Connect-ExchangeOnline -UserPrincipalName USER PRINCIPAL NAME HERE Run the command to enable auditing Set-AdminAuditLogConfig -UnifiedAuditLogIngestionEnabled $true Note: It may take 60 minutes for the change to take effect. Connecting M365 to MDA To connect M365 to MDA as a connector: Within the Defender portal, go to System > Settings. Within Settings, choose Cloud Apps. Within the settings navigation, go to Connected apps > App Connectors. If Microsoft 365 is not already listed, click Connect an app. Find and select Microsoft 365. Within the settings, select the boxes for Microsoft 365 activities. Once set, click on the Connect Microsoft 365 button. Note: You have to have a proper license that includes Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps in order to have these settings for app connections. Monitoring Activities As laid out within the public documentation, there are several categories of audit logs for Sentinel platform, including: Onboarding/offboarding KQL activities Job activities Notebook activities AI tool activities Graph activities All of these events are surfaced within the Purview audit viewer and CloudAppEvents table. When querying the table, each of the activities will appear under a column called ActionType. Onboarding Friendly Name Operation Description Changed subscription of Sentinel lake SentinelLakeSubscriptionChanged User modified the billing subscription ID or resource group associated with the data lake. Onboarded data for Sentinel lake SentinelLakeDefaultDataOnboarded During onboarding, default data onboard is logged. Setup Sentinel lake SentinelLakeSetup At the time of onboarding, Sentinel data lake is set up and the details are logged. For querying these activities, one example would be: CloudAppEvents | where ActionType == ‘SentinelLakeDefaultDataOnboarded’ | project AccountDisplayName, Application, Timestamp, ActionType KQL Queries There is only one type of activity for KQL available. These logs function similarly to how LAQueryLogs work today, showing details like who ran the query, if it was successful, and what the body of the query was. Friendly Name Operation Description Completed KQL query KQLQueryCompleted User runs interactive queries via KQL on data in their Microsoft Sentinel data lake For querying these activities, one example would be: CloudAppEvents | where ActionType == ‘KQLQueryCompleted’ | project Timestamp, AccountDisplayName, Application, RawEventData.Interface, RawEventData.QueryText, RawEventData.TotalRows Jobs Jobs pertain to KQL jobs and Notebook jobs offered by the Sentinel Platform. These logs will detail job activities as well as actions taken against jobs. This will be useful for monitoring who is creating or modifying jobs, as well as monitoring that jobs are properly running. Friendly Name Operation Description Completed a job run adhoc JobRunAdhocCompleted Adhoc Job execution completed. Completed a job run scheduled JobRunScheduledCompleted Scheduled Job execution completed. Created job JobCreated A job is created. Deleted a custom table CustomTableDelete As part of a job run, the custom table was deleted. Deleted job JobDeleted A job is deleted. Disabled job JobDisabled The job is disabled. Enabled job JobEnabled A disabled job is reenabled. Ran a job adhoc JobRunAdhoc Job is triggered manually and run started. Ran a job on schedule JobRunScheduled Job run is triggered due to schedule. Read from table TableRead As part of the job run, a table is read. Stopped a job run JobRunStopped User manually cancels or stops an ongoing job run. Updated job JobUpdated The job definition and/or configuration and schedule details of the job if updated. Writing to a custom table CustomTableWrite As part of the job run, data was written to a custom table. For querying these activities, one example would be: CloudAppEvents | where ActionType == ‘JobCreated’ | project Timestamp, AccountDisplayName, Application, ActionType, RawEventData.JobName, RawEventData.JobType, RawEventData.Interface AI Tools AI tool logs pertain to events being generated by MCP server usage. This is generated any time that users operate with MCP server and leverage one of the tools available today to run prompts and sessions. Friendly Name Operation Description Completed AI tool run SentinelAIToolRunCompleted Sentinel AI tool run completed Created AI tool SentinelAIToolCreated User creates a Sentinel AI tool Started AI tool run SentinelAIToolRunStarted Sentinel AI tool run started For querying these activities, the query would be: CloudAppEvents | where ActionType == ‘SentinelAIToolRunStarted’ | project Timestamp, AccountDisplayName, ActionType, Application, RawEventData.Interface, RawEventData.ToolName Notebooks Notebook activities pertain to actions performed by users via Notebooks. This can include querying data via a Notebook, writing to a table via Notebooks, or launching new Notebook sessions. Friendly Name Operation Description Deleted a custom table CustomTableDelete User deleted a table as part of their notebook execution. Read from table TableRead User read a table as part of their notebook execution. Started session SessionStarted User started a notebook session. Stopped session SessionStopped User stopped a notebook session. Wrote to a custom table CustomTableWrite User wrote to a table as part of their notebook execution. For querying these activities, one example would be: CloudAppEvents | where ActionType == ‘TableRead’ Graph Usage Graph activities pertain to users modifying or running a graph based scenario within the environment. This can include creating a new graph scenario, deleting one, or running a scenario. Created a graph scenario GraphScenarioCreated User created a graph instance for a pre-defined graph scenario. Deleted a graph scenario GraphScenarioDeleted User deleted or disable a graph instance for a pre-defined graph scenario. Ran a graph query GraphQueryRun User ran a graph query. For querying these activities, one example would be: CloudAppEvents | where ActionType == 'GraphQueryRun' | project AccountDisplayName, IsExternalUser, IsImpersonated, RawEventData.['GraphName'], RawEventData.['CreationTime'] Monitoring without Access to the CloudAppSecurity Table If accessing the CloudAppSecurity table is not possible in the environment, both Defender and Purview allow for manually searching for activities within the environment. For Purview (https://purview.microsoft.com), the audit page can be found by going to the Audit blade within the Purview portal. For Defender, the audit blade can be found under Permissions > Audit To run a search that will match Sentinel Platform related activities, the easiest method is using the Activities – friendly names field to filter for Sentinel Platform. Custom Ingestion of Audit Logs If looking to ingest the data into a table, a custom connector can be used to fetch the information. The Purview Audit Logs use the Office Management API when calling events programmatically. This leverages registered applications with proper permissions to poll the API and forward the data into a data collection rule. As the Office Management API does not support filtering entirely within the content URI, making a custom connector for this source is a bit more tricky. For a custom connector to work, it will need to: Call the API Review each content URL Filter for events that are related to Sentinel Platform This leaves two options for accomplishing a custom connector route: A code-based connector that is hosted within an Azure Function A codeless connector paired with a filtering data collection rule This blog will just focus on the codeless connector as an example. A codeless connector can be made from scratch or by referencing an existing connector within the Microsoft Sentinel GitHub repository. For the connector, an example API call would appear as such: https://manage.office.com/api/v1.0/{tenant-id}/activity/feed/subscriptions/content?contentType=Audit.General&startTime={startTime}&endTime={endTime} When using a registered application, it will need ActivityFeed.Read read permissions on the Office Management API for it to be able to call the API and view the information returned. The catch with the Management API is that it uses a content URL in the API response, thus requiring one more step. Luckily, Codeless Connectors support nested actions and JSON. An example of a connector that does this today is the Salesforce connector. When looking to filter the events to be specifically the Sentinel Platform audit logs, the queries listed above can be used in the body of a data collection rule. For example: "streams": [ "Custom-PurviewAudit" ], "destinations": [ "logAnalyticsWorkspace" ], "transformKql": "source | where ActionType has_any (‘GraphQueryRun’, ‘TableRead’… etc) "outputStream": "Custom-SentinelPlatformAuditLogs” Note that putting all of the audit logs may lead to a schema mismatch depending on how they are being parsed. If concerned about this, consider placing each event into different tables, such as SentinelLakeQueries, KQLJobActions, etc. This can all be defined within the data collection rule, though the custom tables for each action will need to exist before defining them within the data collection rule. Closing Now that audit logs are flowing, actions taken by users within the environment can be used for detections, hunting, Workbooks, and automation. Since the logs are being ingested via a data collection rule, they can also be sent to Microsoft Sentinel data lake if desired. May this blog lead to some creativity and stronger monitoring of the Sentinel Platform!

In this blog, I will walk through how you can build functions based on a Microsoft Sentinel Log Analytics workspace for use in custom KQL-based plugins for Security Copilot. The same approach can be used for Azure Data Explorer and Defender XDR, so long as you follow the specific guidance for either platform. A link to those steps is provided in the Additional Resources section at the end of this blog. But first, it’s helpful to clarify what parameterized functions are and why they are important in the context of Security Copilot KQL-based plugins. Parameterized functions accept input details (variables) such as lookback periods or entities, allowing you to dynamically alter parts of a query without rewriting the entire logic Parameterized functions are important in the context of Security Copilot plugins because of: Dynamic prompt completion: Security Copilot plugins often accept user input (e.g., usernames, time ranges, IPs). Parameterized functions allow these inputs to be consistently injected into KQL queries without rebuilding query logic. Plugin reusability: By using parameters, a single function can serve multiple investigation scenarios (e.g., checking sign-ins, data access, or alerts for any user or timeframe) instead of hardcoding different versions. Maintainability and modularity: Parameterized functions centralize query logic, making it easier to update or enhance without modifying every instance across the plugin spec. To modify the logic, just edit the function in Log Analytics, test it then save it- without needing to change the plugin at all or re-upload it into Security Copilot. It also significantly reduces the need to ensure that the query part of the YAML is perfectly indented and tabbed as is required by the Open API specification, you only need to worry about formatting a single line vs several-potentially hundreds. Validation: Separating query logic from input parameters improves query reliability by avoiding the possibility of malformed queries. No matter what the input is, it's treated as a value, not as part of the query logic. Plugin Spec mapping: OpenAPI-based Security Copilot plugins can map user-provided inputs directly to function parameters, making the interaction between user intent and query execution seamless. Practical example In this case, we have a 139-line KQL query that we will reduce to exactly one line that goes into the KQL plugin. In other cases, this number could be even higher. Without using functions, this entire query would have to form part of the plugin Note: The rest of this blog assumes you are familiar with KQL custom plugins-how they work and how to upload them into Security Copilot.

query (BEFORE creating the parameters in the UI). This will put the query in a “temporary” unusable state because the parameters will cause syntax problems in this state. However, since the plan is to run the query as a function this is ok Create the parameters in the Log Analytics UI Give the function a name and define the parameters exactly as they show up in the query in step 1 above. In this example, we are defining two parameters: lookback – to store the lookback period to be passed to the time filter and User_Dept to the user’s department. 3. Test the query. Note the order of parameter definition in the UI. i.e. first the User_Dept THEN the lookback period. You can interchange them if you like but this will determine how you submit the query using the function. If the User_Dept parameter was defined first then it needs to come first when executing the function. See the below screenshot. Switching them will result in the wrong parameter being passed to the query and consequently 0 results will be returned. Effect of switched parameters: To edit the function, follow the steps below: Navigate to the Logs menu for your Log Analytics workspace then select the function icon Once satisfied with the query and function, build your spec file for the Security Copilot plugin. Note the parameter definition and usage in the sections highlighted in red below And that’s it, from 139 unwieldy KQL lines to one very manageable one! You are welcome 😊 Let’s now put it through its paces once uploaded into Security Copilot. We start by executing the plugin using its default settings via the direct skill invocation method. We see indeed that the prompt returns results based on the default values passed as parameters to the function: Next, we still use direct skill invocation, but this time specify our own parameters: Lastly, we test it out with a natural language prompt: tment Tip: The function does not execute successfully if the default summarize function is used without creating a variable i.e. If the summarize count() command is used in your query, it results in a system-defined output variable named count_. To bypass this issue, ensure to use a user-defined variable such as Event_Count as shown in line 77 below: Conclusion In conclusion, leveraging parameterized functions within KQL-based custom plugins in Microsoft Security Copilot can significantly streamline your data querying and analysis capabilities. By encapsulating reusable logic, improving query efficiency, and ensuring maintainability, these functions provide an efficient approach for tapping into data stored across Microsoft Sentinel, Defender XDR and Azure Data Explorer clusters.

In March, Case Management went to GA status within the unified portal for customers. This introduced new functionality and experiences such as: A new case queue Custom statuses New Case task experience Linking incidents to cases This can be a little confusing for existing users who are familiar with incidents and the incident experience for either Microsoft Defender or Sentinel. Let’s break this down into more detail. What are Incidents? Incidents are artifacts that act as containers for alerts to signal that a noteworthy event took place that involves one or more malicious activities. These serve to be a single landing page for alerts, activities, entities, and more. When to use Incidents? Incidents are the default experience for analysts as they perform incident investigations and response. Incidents are where they will find any and all details available for alerts and entities while performing the basic tasks of a SOC analyst. Incidents should be used when investigating and responding to malicious activity within the environment. The current incident experience provides features such as: Alert timeline Entity mapping and tracking Entity investigation graph Copilot for Security Pre-performed investigations and responses What are Cases? Cases are artifacts that represent an actionable or trackable item, such as incident investigation, validating a threat hunting hypothesis, reviewing threat intelligence review, managing endpoint vulnerabilities, and more. They can exist without alerts or incidents. When to use Cases vs. Incidents? This section is not meant to put one over the other, but is meant to clear up some confusion. Cases serve as items that can be created to track important activities within the SOC, they don’t have to just be for incident response. A case can be created for any notable activity that the SOC performs, as mentioned above. Cases can be used as a collaboration tool within your SOC team. While cases may seem redundant to incident, that is not true one bit. Here are a few distinguishing points: As incidents are a container for alerts, cases can be a container for incidents, allowing multiple incidents to be worked on at once if they are related by threat actor, impacted entities, and more. Cases offer a native task experience, similar to the experience within Microsoft Sentinel in Azure. Cases offer attachment support, allowing analysts a more traditional case management experience that incidents do not have. Cases allow for more customization, such as custom statuses. Incidents do not offer custom statuses. Let’s look at two example scenarios: Cases with Incidents I am a SOC Analyst that is reviewing the incident queue. I find an incident that involves multiple threat types and scripts. I would like to work on this incident with my colleagues while tracking notable artifacts that we find in our investigation. For example: I visit the unified incident queue and see that I have a multi-stage incident, involving multiple alerts for multiple assets. I perform my initial triage and confirm that this is a true positive that should be addressed. I will then cut a case and attach this incident to it for collaboration. Within the case, I can add a code block to list any query that I have performed within Advanced Hunting, as well as paste results from my queries directly in the case for tracking. If using Copilot for Security, I can copy and paste the Copilot incident summary in the case so that my colleagues can get an incident summary without having to leave the case. Cases without Incidents I am a SOC Analyst that is responsible for remediating device vulnerabilities. I check our current CVE’s within Exposure Management and see that I have several devices that are currently vulnerable to CVE-2025-5419, a Microsoft Edge Chromium vulnerability. I save my list of devices to a CSV file so that I can attach it to my case. I also copy the description of the CVE to add the case notes to make it more convenient for my colleagues to join the case and not need to leave it. I then pivot to Advanced Hunting to review activities by any of these vulnerable devices. I have a match and would like to connect that result to my case, so I use Export > Copy to Clipboard so that I can paste it in the case. Back within the case, I begin uploading the CSV of exposed devices as evidence, I leave a message that is formatted to draw attention to the findings, and I paste my findings based on my query. Based on my findings, I begin generating new tasks for each device owner and pasting the instructions for remediation of the CVE. These are just some examples of the many uses for cases within the Defender Portal. Hopefully this highlights the versatility of case management today and how it can operate both with and without an incident involved. Keep an eye out for more improvements as Case Management matures.

For more details on how to connect Sentinel to Defender review these sources: Microsoft Sentinel in the Microsoft Defender portal 3. In what regions is Sentinel data lake available? For supported regions see: Geographical availability and data residency in Microsoft Sentinel | Microsoft Learn 4. Is there an expected release date for Microsoft Sentinel data lake in Government clouds? While the exact date is not yet finalized, we anticipate support for these clouds soon. 5. How will URBAC and Entra RBAC work together to manage the data lake given there is no centralized model? Entra RBAC will provide broad access to the data lake (URBAC maps the right permissions to specific Entra role holders: GA/SA/SO/GR/SR). URBAC will become a centralized pane for configuring non-global delegated access to the data lake. For today, you will use this for the “default data lake” workspace. In the future, this will be enabled for non-default Sentinel workspaces as well – meaning all workspaces in the data lake can be managed here for data lake RBAC requirements. Azure RBAC on the Log Analytics (LA) workspace in the data lake is respected through URBAC as well today. If you already hold a built-in role like log analytics reader, you will be able to run interactive queries over the tables in that workspace. Or, if you hold log analytics contributor, you can read and manage table data. For more details see: Roles and permissions in the Microsoft Sentinel platform | Microsoft Learn Data ingestion and storage 1. How do I ingest data into the Sentinel data lake? To ingest data into the Sentinel data lake, you can use existing Sentinel data connectors or custom connectors to bring data from Microsoft and third-party sources. Data can be ingested into the analytic tier and/or data lake tier. Data ingested into the analytics tier is automatically mirrored to the lake, while lake-only ingestion is available for select tables. Data retention is configured in table management. Note: Certain tables do not support data lake-only ingestion via either API or data connector UI. See here for more information: Custom log tables. 2. What is Microsoft’s guidance on when to use analytics tier vs. the data lake tier? Sentinel data lake offers flexible, built-in data tiering (analytics and data lake tiers) to effectively meet diverse business use cases and achieve cost optimization goals. Analytics tier: Is ideal for high-performance, real-time, end-to-end detections, enrichments, investigation and interactive dashboards. Typically, high-fidelity data from EDRs, email gateways, identity, SaaS and cloud logs, threat intelligence (TI) should be ingested into the analytics tier. Data in the analytics tier is best monitored proactively with scheduled alerts and scheduled analytics to enable security detections Data in this tier is retained at no cost for up to 90 days by default, extendable to 2 years. A copy of the data in this tier is automatically available in the data lake tier at no extra cost, ensuring a unified copy of security data for both tiers. Data lake tier: Is designed for cost-effective, long-term storage. High-volume logs like NetFlow logs, TLS/SSL certificate logs, firewall logs and proxy logs are best suited for data lake tier. Customers can use these logs for historical analysis, compliance and auditing, incident response (IR), forensics over historical data, build tenant baselines, TI matching and then promote resulting insights into the analytics tier. Customers can run full Kusto queries, Spark Notebooks and scheduled jobs over a single copy of their data in the data lake. Customers can also search, enrich and restore data from the data lake tier to the analytics tier for full analytics. For more details see documentation. 3. What does it mean that a copy of all new analytics tier data will be available in the data lake? When Sentinel data lake is enabled, a copy of all new data ingested into the analytics tier is automatically duplicated into the data lake tier. This means customers don’t need to manually configure or manage this process—every new log or telemetry added to the analytics tier becomes instantly available in the data lake. This allows security teams to run advanced analytics, historical investigations, and machine learning models on a single, unified copy of data in the lake, while still using the analytics tier for real-time SOC workflows. It’s a seamless way to support both operational and long-term use cases—without duplicating effort or cost. 4. Is there any cost for retention in the analytics tier? You will get 90 days of analytics retention free. Simply set analytics retention to 90 days or less. Total retention setting – only the mirrored portion that overlaps with the free analytics retention is free in the data lake. Retaining data in the lake beyond the analytics retention period incurs additional storage costs. See documentation for more details: Manage data tiers and retention in Microsoft Sentinel | Microsoft Learn 5. What is the guidance for Microsoft Sentinel Basic and Auxiliary Logs customers? If you previously enabled Basic or Auxiliary Logs plan in Sentinel: You can view Basic Logs in the Defender portal but manage it from the Log Analytics workspace. To manage it in the Defender portal, you must change the plan from Basic to Analytics. Existing Auxiliary Log tables will be available in the data lake tier for use once the Sentinel data lake is enabled. Prior to the availability of Sentinel data lake, Auxiliary Logs provided a long-term retention solution for Sentinel SIEM. Now once the data lake is enabled, Auxiliary Log tables will be available in the Sentinel data lake for use with the data lake experiences. Billing for Auxiliary Logs will switch to Sentinel data lake meters. Microsoft Sentinel customers are recommended to start planning their data management strategy with the data lake. While Basic and auxiliary Logs are still available, they are not being enhanced further. Please plan on onboarding your security data to the Sentinel data lake. Azure Monitor customers can continue to use Basic and Auxiliary Logs for observability scenarios. 6. What happens to customers that already have Archive logs enabled? If a customer has already configured tables for Archive retention, those settings will be inherited by the Sentinel data lake and will not change. Data in the Archive logs will continue to be accessible through Sentinel search and restore experiences. Mirrored data (in the data lake) will be accessible via lake explorer and notebook jobs. Example: If a customer has 12 months of total retention enabled on a table, 2 months after enabling ingestion into the Sentinel data lake, the customer will still have access to 12 months of archived data (through Sentinel search and restore experiences), but access to only 2 months of data in the data lake (since the data lake was enabled). Key considerations for customers that currently have Archive logs enabled: The existing archive will remain, with new data ingested into the data lake going forward; previously stored archive data will not be backfilled into the lake. Archive logs will continue to be accessible via the Search and Restore tab under Sentinel. If analytics and data lake mode are enabled on table, which is the default setting for analytics tables when Sentinel data lake is enabled, data will continue to be ingested into the Sentinel data lake and archive going forward. There will only be one retention billing meter going forward. Archive will continue to be accessible via Search and Restore. If Sentinel data lake-only mode is enabled on table, new data will be ingested only into the data lake; any data that’s not already in the Sentinel data lake won’t be migrated/backfilled. Data that was previously ingested under the archive plan will be accessible via Search and Restore. 7. What is the guidance for customers using Azure Data Explorer (ADX) alongside Microsoft Sentinel? Some customers might have set up ADX cluster to augment their Sentinel deployment. Customers can choose to continue using that setup and gradually migrate to Sentinel data lake for new data to receive the benefits of a fully managed data lake. For all new implementations it is recommended to use the Sentinel data lake. 8. What happens to the Defender XDR data after enabling Sentinel data lake? By default, Defender XDR retains threat hunting data in the XDR default tier, which includes 30 days of analytics retention, which is included in the XDR license. You can extend the table retention period for supported Defender XDR tables beyond 30 days. For more information see Manage XDR data in Microsoft Sentinel. Note: Today you can't ingest XDR tables directly to the data lake tier without ingesting into the analytics tier first. 9. Are there any special considerations for XDR tables? Yes, XDR tables are unique in that they are available for querying in advanced hunting by default for 30 days. To retain data beyond this period, an explicit change to the retention setting is required, either by extending the analytics tier retention or the total retention period. A list of XDR advanced hunting tables supported by Sentinel are documented here: Connect Microsoft Defender XDR data to Microsoft Sentinel | Microsoft Learn. KQL queries and jobs 1. Is KQL and Notebook supported over the Sentinel data lake? Yes, via the data lake KQL query experience along with a fully managed Notebook experience which enables spark-based big data analytics over a single copy of all your security data. Customers can run queries across any time range of data in their Sentinel data lake. In the future, this will be extended to enable SQL query over lake as well. 2. Why are there two different places to run KQL queries in Sentinel experience? Consolidating advanced hunting and KQL Explorer user interfaces is on the roadmap. Security analysts will benefit from unified query experience across both analytics and data lake tiers. 3. Where is the output from KQL jobs stored? KQL jobs are written into existing or new analytics tier table. 4. Is it possible to run KQL queries on multiple data lake tables? Yes, you can run KQL interactive queries and jobs using operators like join or union. 5. Can KQL queries (either interactive or via KQL jobs) join data across multiple workspaces? Yes, security teams can run multi-workspace KQL queries for broader threat correlation. Pricing and billing 1. How does a customer pay for Sentinel data lake? Sentinel data lake is a consumption-based service with disaggregated storage and compute business model. Customers continue to pay for ingestion. Customers set up billing as a part of their onboarding for storage and analytics over data in the data lake (e.g. Queries, KQL or Notebook Jobs). See Sentinel pricing page for more details. 2. What are the pricing components for Sentinel data lake? Sentinel data lake offers a flexible pricing model designed to optimize security coverage and costs. For specific meter definitions, see documentation. 3. What are the billing updates at GA? We are enabling data compression billed with a simple and uniform data compression rate of 6:1 across all data sources, applicable only to data lake storage. Starting October 1, 2025, the data storage billing begins on the first day data is stored. To support ingestion and standardization of diverse data sources, we are introducing a new Data Processing feature that applies a $0.10 per GB charge for all uncompressed data ingested into the data lake for tables configured for data lake only retention. (does not apply to tables configured for both analytic and data lake tier retention). 4. How is retention billed for tables that use data lake-only ingestion & retention? During the public preview, data lake-only tables included the first 30 days of retention at no cost. At GA, storage costs will be billed. In addition, when retention billing switches to using compressed data size (instead of ingested size), this will change, and charges will apply for the entire retention period. Because billing will be based on compressed data size, customers can expect significant savings on storage costs. 5. Does “Data processing” meter apply to analytics tier data duplicated in the data lake? No. 6. What happens to billing for customers that activate Sentinel data lake on a table with archive logs enabled? Customers will automatically be billed using the data lake storage meter. Note: This means that customers will be charged using the 6X compression rate for data lake retention. 7. How do I control my Sentinel data lake costs? Sentinel is billed based on consumption and prices vary based on usage. An important tool in managing the majority of the cost is usage of analytics “Commitment Tiers”. The data lake complements this strategy for higher-volume data like network and firewall data to reduce analytics tier costs. Use the Azure pricing calculator and the Sentinel pricing page to estimate costs and understand pricing. 8. How do I manage Sentinel data lake costs? We are introducing a new cost management experience (public preview) to help customers with cost predictability, billing transparency, and operational efficiency. These in-product reports provide customers with insights into usage trends over time, enabling them to identify cost drivers and optimize data retention and processing strategies. Customers will also be able to set usage-based alerts on specific meters to monitor and control costs. For example, you can receive alerts when query or notebook usage passes set limits, helping avoid unexpected expenses and manage budgets. See documentation to learn more. 9. If I’m an Auxiliary Logs customer, how will onboarding to the Sentinel data lake affect my billing? Once a workspace is onboarded to Sentinel data lake, all Auxiliary Logs meters will be replaced by new data lake meters.
