Microsoft Sentinel security alert schema reference

  • Άρθρο

Microsoft Sentinel analytics rules create incidents as the result of security alerts. Security alerts can come from different sources, and accordingly use different kinds of analytics rules to create incidents:

  • Scheduled analytics rules generate alerts as the result of their regular queries of data in logs ingested from external sources, and those same rules create incidents from those alerts. (For the purposes of this document, "scheduled" rule alerts include NRT rule alerts.)

  • Microsoft Security analytics rules create incidents from alerts that are ingested as-is from other Microsoft security products, for example, Microsoft Defender XDR and Microsoft Defender for Cloud.

Regardless of the source, these alerts are all stored together in the SecurityAlert table in your Log Analytics workspace. This article describes the schema of this table.

Because alerts come from many sources, not all fields are used by all providers. Some fields may be left blank.
