What Changed
Added new CCF (Codeless Connector Framework) template for Azure Storage Blob data ingestion at DataConnectors/Templates/Connector_StorageBlob_CCF_template.json.
Ingestion Mechanism
Event-driven blob ingestion:
- Uses Event Grid topic to monitor blob creation events in storage account
- Automatic notification queue and dead-letter queue creation
- Role assignments grant Microsoft Sentinel access to blob container and storage queues
- Data flows through DCR (Data Collection Rule) with KQL transform capabilities
Configuration requirements:
- Blob container URL and optional folder path
- Storage account location, resource group, and subscription details
- Existing Event Grid topic name (if present) or creates new one
Detection Surface Unlocked
Enables collection of security logs from:
- Custom applications writing structured logs to blob storage
- Third-party security tools using blob storage for log export
- Archive data recovery for historical analysis
- Any system capable of writing JSON/text logs to Azure Storage blobs
Template includes customizable table schema and transform KQL for data normalization.
