Microsoft Sentinel user management normalization schema reference (preview)

  • Straipsnis

The Microsoft Sentinel user management normalization schema is used to describe user management activities, such as creating a user or a group, changing user attribute, or adding a user to a group. Such events are reported, for example, by operating systems, directory services, identity management systems, and any other system reporting on its local user management activity.

For more information about normalization in Microsoft Sentinel, see Normalization and the Advanced Security Information Model (ASIM).

Important

The user management normalization schema is currently in preview. This feature is provided without a service level agreement. We don't recommend it for production workloads.

The Azure Preview Supplemental Terms include additional legal terms that apply to Azure features that are in beta, preview, or otherwise not yet released into general availability.

Schema overview

The ASIM user management schema describes user management activities. The activities typically include the following entities:

  • Actor - the user performing the management activity.
  • Acting Process - the process used by the actor to perform the management activity.
  • Src - when the activity is performed over the network, the source device from which the activity was initiated.
  • Target User - the user who's account is managed.
  • Group the target user is added or removed from, or being modified.

Some activities, such as UserCreated, GroupCreated, UserModified, and GroupModified*, set or update user properties. The property set or updated is documented in the following fields:
