Azure Logs

Normalize various Azure Logs to the Cortex Data Model (XDM) schema, including Azure Entra ID events ingested via the Office 365 data source, and Azure Logs ingested via the Azure Event Hub data source.

What does this pack do

The Azure Logs pack contains data normalization rules for ingesting various Azure log types that are collected via the Office 365 and Azure Event Hub data sources, and modeling them to the Cortex Data Model (XDM).

Supported Log Types

The normalization rules included in this pack supports the following log types:

Log Type Target Dataset XSIAM Collector Timestamp Field
Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) authentication logs msft_azure_ad_raw Office 365 CreatedDateTime
Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) audit logs msft_azure_ad_audit_raw Office 365 ActivityDateTime
Active Directory Federation Service Sign-in logs (ADFSSignInLogs) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub ActivityDateTime
Audit logs for Azure Active Directory (AuditLogs) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub ActivityDateTime
Managed identity Azure Active Directory sign-in logs (ManagedIdentitySignInLogs) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub CreatedDateTime
Non-interactive Azure Active Directory sign-in logs from user (NonInteractiveUserSignInLogs) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub CreatedDateTime
Logs generated by Azure AD Provisioning (ProvisioningLogs) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub ActivityDateTime
Logs generated by identity protection for Azure AD risky service principals (RiskyServicePrincipals) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub RiskLastUpdatedDateTime
Logs generated by Identity Protection for Azure AD Risky Users (RiskyUsers) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub RiskLastUpdatedDateTime
Logs generated by identity protection for Azure AD service principal risk events (ServicePrincipalRiskEvents) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub ActivityDateTime
Service principal Azure Active Directory sign-in logs (ServicePrincipalSignInLogs) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub CreatedDateTime
Sign-in Logs (SignInLogs) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub CreatedDateTime
Logs generated by Identity Protection for Azure AD User Risk Events (UserRiskEvents) msft_azure_raw Azure Event Hub ActivityDateTime

Other Azure Log Types

There are additional Azure log types which are collected via the Azure Event Hub data source that are normalized into XDM via separate dedicated packs.
See the table below that lists these additional log types, along the relevant marketplace pack that handles their XDM modeling.

Data Collection

Azure Entra ID Logs

To collect Azure Entra ID logs and ingest them into the msft_azure_ad_raw and msft_azure_ad_audit_raw datasets, you will need to configure an instance of the Office 365 data source as described here.

When configuring the Office 365 data source, mark the following checkboxes under the Microsoft Graph API section, as demonstrated in the screenshot below:

  • Azure AD Authentication Logs
    • Collect all sign-in event types
  • Azure AD Audit Logs

MicrosoftEntraID_Office_365

Azure Event Hub Logs

To collect Azure Logs from an Azure Event Hub and ingest them into the msft_azure_raw dataset, you will need to configure an instance of the Azure Event Hub data source as described here.

When configuring the Azure Event Hub data source, mark the following checkbox under the Enhanced Cloud Protection section, as demonstrated in the screenshot below:

  • Use audit logs in analytics
