In the last article we found out that KQL transformation at ingestion time is not available for Auxiliary Logs. But in real cases you want to have the ability to send selective log lines to Analytics while sending the rest to Auxiliary. In this article we will discover the possibilities.

In real world scenarios you have a data source with field names which are not identical to those in your table. Beside of renaming the fields in your agent which sending logs also Data Collection Rules provide the ability to map fields with transformkql.

Microsoft provides a new type of Log Analytics tables called Auxiliary Logs. Currently this is in Public Preview and I did some lab testing which I documented in this blog post.

Microsoft provides an Enterprise Attack Surface Management (EASM) tool. In this blog series I want to disover the tool and the possibilities. This is part 3 of this series and covers my conclusions.

Azure Batch is quite powerful tool if you want to scale compute intensive tasks in your environment due it lets you manage scaled workload in Azure. This article will present counter measure to reduce the risk of misuse.

If using Microsoft Defender for Office 365 (MDO) as a Security Analyst and want to mitigate stuff (eg. add a domain to the Tenant Level Allow/Block list) you have an issue with the current role model Microsoft provides.

If using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) often you need to tag devices according some rules. In the past this was a manual task or you automated it by using the API. Now Microsoft provides a way to tag systems automatically according rules.

In previous post I wrote about several possibilities to automate tasks in Azure. In this post I will show you an additional possibility to automate tasks in a cloud native environment with the help of Automation Account.

In another post I already wrote about managed identities and using API. There I also showed how to adapt the required permissions. In this post you will see how to set up required permissions for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (internally called WindowsDefenderATP).

In the first part of this serie we checked the basics of the Graph API. Now in this part we will use Logic App to query the API. This opens new way to automate tasks.

Nextcloud is a file sharing platform like Sharepoint. Providing SSO for this application for your Azure Active Directory users is easy - especially if you know which SAML properties you have to setup on both ends, Nextcloud and AAD. This article shows you how to do it.

In the first part of this serie we checked the basics of the Graph API. Now in this part we will use a dedicated PowerShell module to explore the API further more.

If you are using Microsoft Azure - more specifically the SaaS products like Exchange Online, SharePoint Online or Teams you have the opportunity to get many information through the Graph API. In this article you will get a short introduction into the Graph API.
