Rationale

While tailored SIEM implementations are immensely beneficial to an enterprise (and we continue to strive towards that), however there may be instances where an enterprise could be:

  • New to SIEM and would like to know how to quickly extract value from data
  • New to Azure Sentinel and would like to learn how to navigate within the product and assess its features

The intention of SOC in a Box is to provide guidance around what configurations can be made within Azure Sentinel, reducing the time to deploy and ensuring a structured outcome. The content packages outline which Connectors, Analytics Rules and Workbooks should be enabled - depending on the data sources an enterprise has, one or more content packages can be deployed.

Content Package Description
Azure Common Azure services data (e.g. Azure Activity, Azure Security Center, Azure Firewall, etc.)
M365 Common Microsoft suite data sources (e.g. AAD, Office 365, MTP solutions, etc.)
Infrastructure Common infrastructure data sources (e.g. Windows Security Events, Syslog, etc.)
Non Billable Sources Non billable data sources (e.g. Office 365, Azure Activity, etc.)

In these content packages, only a subset of all the native Connectors / Analytics Rules / Workbooks are enabled, these are the typically essential ones (based on a generic enterprise profile) - the remainder can always be enabled if deemed relevant.

For content packages on more advanced use cases, refer to the Advanced Content section in the navigation bar on the left.
