Cloud App Security & Sentinel Data Retention Storage

Hi,

I have deployed Cloud App Security & Sentinel to my environment and have reviewed the retention periods. I would like to keep the information for longer than Microsoft store it. Are there any documents or best practice guidance of how to move the information out of these platforms into long term storage.

Regards
Ben

    Thank you for your post!

    When it comes to increasing your Azure Sentinel data retention, I found some Tech Community blogs that will detail how logs from a Log Analytics workspace can easily be moved into long-term cold storage in order to comply with retention standards as well as reduce cost.

    I hope this helps, if you have any other questions, please let me know.
    Thank you!
