Overview of this book

Microsoft Sentinel is a security information and event management (SIEM) tool developed by Microsoft that helps you integrate cloud security and artificial intelligence (AI). This book will teach you how to implement Microsoft Sentinel and understand how it can help detect security incidents in your environment with integrated AI, threat analysis, and built-in and community-driven logic. The first part of this book will introduce you to Microsoft Sentinel and Log Analytics, then move on to understanding data collection and management, as well as how to create effective Microsoft Sentinel queries to detect anomalous behaviors and activity patterns. The next part will focus on useful features, such as entity behavior analytics and Microsoft Sentinel playbooks, along with exploring the new bi-directional connector for ServiceNow. In the next part, you’ll be learning how to develop solutions that automate responses needed to handle security incidents and find out more about the latest developments in security, techniques to enhance your cloud security architecture, and explore how you can contribute to the security community. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to implement Microsoft Sentinel to fit your needs and protect your environment from cyber threats and other security issues.

Overview of the Microsoft Sentinel connector

While there are many logic app connectors, and more are being added all the time, the one we are concerned with is the Microsoft Sentinel connector. It provides us with the triggers that can kick off our playbook. It also contains various actions that can perform tasks such as obtaining information about a specific incident, getting information about the entities associated with an alert, updating an incident, and more.

Note

At the time of writing, all the features of the Microsoft Sentinel connector were in preview, so they could have changed from what is shown and discussed here.

As discussed in the previous section, the connector currently has two triggers called When a response to an Microsoft Sentinel alert is triggered and When Microsoft Sentinel incident creation rule was triggered. This means that the trigger will fire whenever an alert or incident is created, depending on which one is selected.

It is worth noting that...
