Prerequisites

To integrate with Illumio SaaS (using Azure Functions) make sure you have:

  • Microsoft.Web/sites permissions: Read and write permissions to Azure Functions to create a Function App is required. See the documentation to learn more about Azure Functions.
  • SQS and AWS S3 account credentials/permissions: AWS_SECRET, AWS_REGION_NAME, AWS_KEY, QUEUE_URL is required. See the documentation to learn more about data pulling. If you are using s3 bucket provided by Illumio, contact Illumio support. At your request they will provide you with the AWS S3 bucket name, AWS SQS url and AWS credentials to access them.
  • Illumio API key and secret: ILLUMIO_API_KEY, ILLUMIO_API_SECRET is required for a workbook to make connection to SaaS PCE and fetch api responses.

Vendor installation instructions

Note

This connector uses Azure Functions to connect to the AWS SQS / S3 to pull logs into Microsoft Sentinel. This might result in additional data ingestion costs. Check the Azure Functions pricing page for details.

(Optional Step) Securely store API authorization key(s) or token(s) in Azure Key Vault. Azure Key Vault provides a secure mechanism to store and retrieve key values. Follow these instructions to use Azure Key Vault with an Azure Function App.

Prerequisites

  1. Ensure AWS SQS is configured for the s3 bucket from which flow and auditable event logs are going to be pulled. In case, Illumio provides bucket, please contact Illumio support for sqs url, s3 bucket name and aws credentials.
  2. Register AAD application - For DCR (Data collection rule) to authentiate to ingest data into log analytics, you must use Entra application. 1. Follow the instructions here (steps 1-5) to get AAD Tenant Id, AAD Client Id and AAD Client Secret.
  3. Ensure you have created a log analytics workspace. Please keep note of the name and region where it has been deployed.
