Most Microsoft cloud sources and many other clouds and on-prem systems can send to Azure Sentinel natively. Tip: Want to ingest test CEF data? here is how to do that. The table provides links to the source device's vendor documentation for configuring the device to send events in Syslog or CEF. The number of systems supporting Syslog or CEF is in the hundreds, making the table below by no means comprehensive. However, unlike many other SIEM products, Sentinel allows ingesting unparsed Syslog events and performing analytics on them using query time parsing. The advantage of CEF over Syslog is that it ensures the data is normalized, making it more immediately useful for analysis using Sentinel.

Want to scale CEF or Syslog collection? Use a VM scale set as described here.

This makes Syslog or CEF the most straightforward ways to stream security and networking events to Azure Sentinel.

Most network and security systems support either Syslog or CEF (which stands for Common Event Format) over Syslog as means for sending data to a SIEM. Therefore a built-in connector will have a type: CEF, Syslog, Direct, and so forth. Those connectors are based on one of the technologies listed below. Refer to the Azure Sentinel connector documentation for more information.īuilt-in connectors are included in the Azure Sentinel documentation and the data connectors pane in the product itself.

Please note that as the built-in list of connectors in Azure Sentinel is growing, this list is not actively maintained anymore.
