Activity Logs are your Azure forensic record.\n\n> **This skill is instruction-only. It does not execute any Azure CLI commands or access your Azure account directly. You provide the data; Claude analyzes it.**\n\n## Required Inputs\n\nAsk the user to provide **one or more** of the following (the more provided, the better the analysis):\n\n1. **Azure Activity Log export** — operations from the suspicious time window\n   ```bash\n   az monitor activity-log list \\\n     --start-time 2025-03-15T00:00:00Z \\\n     --end-time 2025-03-16T00:00:00Z \\\n     --output json > activity-log.json\n   ```\n2. **Azure Activity Log from portal** — filtered to high-risk operations\n   ```\n   How to export: Azure Portal → Monitor → Activity log → set time range → Export to CSV\n   ```\n3. **Microsoft Sentinel incident export** — if Sentinel is enabled\n   ```\n   How to export: Azure Portal → Microsoft Sentinel → Incidents → export to CSV or paste incident details\n   ```\n\n**Minimum required Azure RBAC role to run the CLI commands above (read-only):**\n```json\n{\n  \"role\": \"Monitoring Reader\",\n  \"scope\": \"Subscription\",\n  \"note\": \"Also assign 'Security Reader' for Sentinel and Defender access\"\n}\n```\n\nIf the user cannot provide any data, ask them to describe: the suspicious activity observed, which subscription and resource group, approximate time, and what resources may have been changed.\n\n\n## High-Risk Event Patterns\n- Subscription-level role assignment changes (Owner/Contributor/User Access Administrator)\n- `Microsoft.Security/policies/write` — security policy changes\n- `Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/delete` — policy removal\n- Mass resource deletions in short time window\n- Key Vault access from unexpected geolocation or IP\n- Entra ID role elevation outside business hours\n- Failed login storms followed by success (brute force)\n- NSG rule changes opening inbound ports to internet\n- Diagnostic setting deletion (audit log blind spot)\n- Resource lock removal followed by resource deletion\n\n## Steps\n1. Parse Activity Log events — identify high-risk operation names\n2. Chain related events into attack timeline\n3. Map to MITRE ATT&CK Cloud techniques\n4. Assess false positive likelihood\n5. Generate containment recommendations\n\n## Output Format\n- **Threat Summary**: critical/high/medium finding counts\n- **Incident Timeline**: chronological suspicious events\n- **Findings Table**: operation, principal, IP, time, MITRE technique\n- **Attack Narrative**: plain-English story of the suspicious sequence\n- **Containment Actions**: Azure CLI commands (revoke access, lock resource group, etc.)\n- **Sentinel KQL Query**: to detect this pattern going forward\n\n## Rules\n- Correlate IP addresses with known threat intel where possible\n- Flag activity from service principals outside their expected resource scope\n- Note: Activity Log retention default is 90 days — flag if shorter\n- Never ask for credentials, access keys, or secret keys — only exported data or CLI/console output\n- If user pastes raw data, confirm no credentials are included before processing\n\n","tags":{"latest":"1.0.0"},"stats":{"comments":0,"downloads":591,"installsAllTime":1,"installsCurrent":1,"stars":0,"versions":1},"createdAt":1772622250031,"updatedAt":1778491718264},"latestVersion":{"version":"1.0.0","createdAt":1772622250031,"changelog":"Initial release of Azure Activity Log & Sentinel Threat Detector.\n\n- Analyze exported Azure Activity Logs and Sentinel incidents for suspicious operations and attack patterns.\n- Guide users on how to export required data securely, with no credentials needed.\n- Detect and summarize high-risk events: role changes, policy deletions, failed logins, resource tampering, and more.\n- Output includes threat summaries, incident timeline, MITRE mappings, KQL detection queries, and remediation guidance.\n- All analysis is instruction-only—no direct Azure or CLI access; user data privacy emphasized.","license":null},"metadata":null,"owner":{"handle":"anmolnagpal","userId":"s1743ht18ezy217y47byd9bda1884nqd","displayName":"Anmol Nagpal","image":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/4303310?v=4"},"moderation":null}
