The Infoblox Data Connector allows you to easily connect your Infoblox TIDE data and Dossier data with Microsoft Sentinel. By connecting your data to Microsoft Sentinel, you can take advantage of search & correlation, alerting, and threat intelligence enrichment for each log.

Tables Ingested

This connector ingests data into the following tables:

Table Transformations Ingestion API Lake-Only
Failed_Range_To_Ingest_CL 🔶 ? ?
Infoblox_Failed_Indicators_CL 🔶 ? ?
dossier_atp_CL 🔶 ? ?
dossier_atp_threat_CL 🔶 ? ?

💡 Tip: Tables with Ingestion API support allow data ingestion via the Azure Monitor Data Collector API, which also enables custom transformations during ingestion.

Permissions

Resource Provider Permissions: - Workspace (Workspace): read and write permissions on the workspace are required. - Keys (Workspace): read permissions to shared keys for the workspace are required. See the documentation to learn more about workspace keys.

Custom Permissions: - Azure Subscription: Azure Subscription with owner role is required to register an application in Microsoft Entra ID and assign role of contributor to app in resource group. - 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. - REST API Credentials/permissions: Infoblox API Key is required. See the documentation to learn more about API on the Rest API reference

Setup Instructions

⚠️ Note: These instructions were automatically generated from the connector's user interface definition file using AI and may not be fully accurate. Please verify all configuration steps in the Microsoft Sentinel portal.

NOTE: This connector uses Azure Functions to connect to the Infoblox API to create Threat Indicators for TIDE and pull Dossier data into Microsoft Sentinel. This might result in additional data ingestion costs. Check the Azure Functions pricing page for details.

(Optional Step) Securely store workspace and 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.

STEP 1 - App Registration steps for the Application in Microsoft Entra ID

This integration requires an App registration in the Azure portal. Follow the steps in this section to create a new application in Microsoft Entra ID: 1. Sign in to the Azure portal. 2. Search for and select Microsoft Entra ID. 3. Under Manage, select App registrations > New registration. 4. Enter a display Name for your application. 5. Select Register to complete the initial app registration. 6. When registration finishes, the Azure portal displays the app registration's Overview pane. You see the Application (client) ID and Tenant ID. The client ID and Tenant ID is required as configuration parameters for the execution of the TriggersSync playbook.

STEP 2 - Add a client secret for application in Microsoft Entra ID

Sometimes called an application password, a client secret is a string value required for the execution of TriggersSync playbook. Follow the steps in this section to create a new Client Secret: 1. In the Azure portal, in App registrations, select your application. 2. Select Certificates & secrets > Client secrets > New client secret. 3. Add a description for your client secret. 4. Select an expiration for the secret or specify a custom lifetime. Limit is 24 months. 5. Select Add. 6. Record the secret's value for use in your client application code. This secret value is never displayed again after you leave this page. The secret value is required as configuration parameter for the execution of TriggersSync playbook.

STEP 3 - Assign role of Contributor to application in Microsoft Entra ID

Follow the steps in this section to assign the role: 1. In the Azure portal, Go to Resource Group and select your resource group. 2. Go to Access control (IAM) from left panel. 3. Click on Add, and then select Add role assignment. 4. Select Contributor as role and click on next. 5. In Assign access to, select User, group, or service principal. 6.
