Planned Changes
Litware plans to implement the following changes:
1. Create and configure Azure Sentinel in the Azure subscription.
2. Validate Azure Sentinel functionality by using Azure AD test user accounts.
Business Requirements
Litware identifies the following business requirements:
1. The principle of least privilege must be used whenever possible.
2. Costs must be minimized, as long as all other requirements are met.
3. Logs collected by Log Analytics must provide a full audit trail of user activities.
4. All domain controllers must be protected by using Microsoft Defender for Identity.
Azure Information Protection Requirements
All files that have security labels and are stored on the Windows 10 computers must be available from the Azure Information Protection - Data discovery dashboard.
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint requirements
All Cloud App Security unsanctioned apps must be blocked on the Windows 10 computers by using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.
Microsoft Cloud App Security requirements
Cloud App Security must identify whether a user connection is anomalous based on tenant-level data.
Azure Defender Requirements
All servers must send logs to the same Log Analytics workspace.
Azure Sentinel Requirements
Litware must meet the following Azure Sentinel requirements:
1. Integrate Azure Sentinel and Cloud App Security.
2. Ensure that a user named admin1 can configure Azure Sentinel playbooks.
3. Create an Azure Sentinel analytics rule based on a custom query. The rule must automatically initiate the execution of a playbook.
4. Add notes to events that represent data access from a specific IP address to provide the ability to
reference the IP address when navigating through an investigation graph while hunting.
5. Create a test rule that generates alerts when inbound access to Microsoft Office 365 by the Azure AD test user accounts is detected. Alerts generated by the rule must be grouped into individual incidents, with one incident per test user account.
