The AI Vectra Detect connector allows users to connect Vectra Detect logs with Microsoft Sentinel, to view dashboards, create custom alerts, and improve investigation. This gives users more insight into their organization's network and improves their security operation capabilities.
Additional Information
🛠️ Device Configuration: From Vectra UI: Settings > Notifications > Edit syslog configuration. Add Destination with port 514, UDP, CEF format. Enable all log types and Test.
Tables Ingested
This connector ingests data into the following tables:
| Table | Selection Criteria | Transformations | Ingestion API | Lake-Only |
|---|---|---|---|---|
CommonSecurityLog |
DeviceEventClassID == "hsc"DeviceEventClassID !in "health,audit,campaigns,hsc,asc"DeviceProduct == "X Series"DeviceVendor == "Vectra Networks" |
✓ | ✓ | ? |
💡 Tip: Tables with Ingestion API support allow data ingestion via the Azure Monitor Data Collector API, which also enables custom transformations during ingestion.

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.
1. Kindly follow the steps to configure the data connector
Step A. Configure the Common Event Format (CEF) via AMA data connector
Note:- CEF logs are collected only from Linux Agents
-
Navigate to Microsoft Sentinel workspace ---> configuration ---> Data connector blade .
-
Search for 'Common Event Format (CEF) via AMA' data connector and open it.
-
Check If there is no existing DCR configured to collect required facility of logs, Create a new DCR (Data Collection Rule)
Note:- It is recommended to install minimum 1.27 version of AMA agent Learn more and ensure there is no duplicate DCR as it can cause log duplicacy
-
Run the command provided in the CEF via AMA data connector page to configure the CEF collector on the machine
Step B. Forward AI Vectra Detect logs to Syslog agent in CEF format
Configure Vectra (X Series) Agent to forward Syslog messages in CEF format to your Microsoft Sentinel workspace via the Syslog agent.
From the Vectra UI, navigate to Settings > Notifications and Edit Syslog configuration. Follow below instructions to set up the connection:
-
Add a new Destination (which is the host where the Microsoft Sentinel Syslog Agent is running)
-
Set the Port as 514
-
Set the Protocol as UDP
-
Set the format to CEF
-
Set Log types (Select all log types available)
-
Click on Save
User can click the Test button to force send some test events.
For more information, refer to Cognito Detect Syslog Guide which can be downloaded from the ressource page in Detect UI.
Step C. Validate connection
Follow the instructions to validate your connectivity:
Open Log Analytics to check if the logs are received using the CommonSecurityLog schema.
It may take about 20 minutes until the connection streams data to your workspace.
If the logs are not received, run the following connectivity validation script:
-
Make sure that you have Python on your machine using the following command: python -version
-
You must have elevated permissions (sudo) on your machine - Run the following command to validate your connectivity::
sudo wget -O Sentinel_AMA_troubleshoot.py https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Azure/Azure-Sentinel/master/DataConnectors/Syslog/Sentinel_AMA_troubleshoot.py&&sudo python Sentinel_AMA_troubleshoot.py --cef
2. Secure your machine
Make sure to configure the machine's security according to your organization's security policy
