🚨 Microsoft Sentinel UEBA enters a new era of behavioural analytics
SIX NEW additional high-value data sources
SOC teams know the struggle: every data point could be a security signal. The result? Analysts are drowning in logs, chasing false positives, and trying to piece together fragmented clues.
That changes with Microsoft Sentinel User and Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA).
Already proven in detecting insider threats, compromised accounts, and subtle attack patterns, Sentinel UEBA uses AI to cut through noise and surface truly anomalous behaviours.
💡 What’s new today?
We’re expanding support to six additional high-value data sources across Microsoft and third-party platforms. That means more visibility, more context, and smarter detections — all in one place.
✅ Authentication activities
MDE DeviceLogonEvents – Spot unusual device access and lateral movement
AAD Managed Identity Sign-in Logs – Detect stealthy abuse of non-human identities
AAD Service Principal Sign-in Logs – Flag anomalies in automation or token theft
✅ Cloud & identity platforms
AWS CloudTrail Login Events – Catch risky AWS console sign-ins
GCP Audit Logs (Failed IAM Access) – Uncover reconnaissance and privilege misuse
Okta MFA & Auth Security Change Events – Reveal MFA fatigue, hijacking, or policy tampering
Together with existing sources like Entra ID, Azure Activity Logs, and Windows Security Events, these enrich user, device, and service identity profiles with powerful behavioural context.
⚡ Why it matters
Correlate activity across clouds and identities in a single view
Build dynamic baselines and peer groups using AI
Focus on real anomalies, not noise
Optimise alerts with UEBA insights to boost fidelity
