Attribute	Value
Connector ID	ProofpointTAP
Publisher	Proofpoint
Used in Solutions	ProofPointTap
Collection Method	Azure Function
Connector Definition Files	ProofpointTAP_API_FunctionApp.json
Ingestion API	HTTP Data Collector API — Connector definition requires workspace key (SharedKey pattern)
Custom Log V1 Tables	Yes 🔶 — ingests into tables with type-suffixed columns

The Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) connector provides the capability to ingest Proofpoint TAP logs and events into Microsoft Sentinel. The connector provides visibility into Message and Click events in Microsoft Sentinel to view dashboards, create custom alerts, and to improve monitoring and investigation capabilities.

NOTE: This data connector has been deprecated, consider moving to the CCP data connector available in the solution which replaces ingestion via the deprecated HTTP Data Collector API.

Tables Ingested

This connector ingests data into the following tables:

Table	Selection Criteria	Transformations	Ingestion API	Lake-Only
ProofPointTAPClicksBlocked_CL 🔶		?	✓	?
ProofPointTAPClicksPermitted_CL 🔶		?	✓	?
ProofPointTAPMessagesBlocked_CL 🔶		?	✓	?
ProofPointTAPMessagesDelivered_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:

• 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.
• Proofpoint TAP API Key: A Proofpoint TAP API username and password is required. See the documentation to learn more about Proofpoint SIEM API.

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 Proofpoint TAP to pull its logs 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 - Configuration steps for the Proofpoint TAP API

1. Log into the Proofpoint TAP console
2. Navigate to Connect Applications and select Service Principal
3. Create a Service Principal (API Authorization Key)

STEP 2 - Choose ONE from the following two deployment options to deploy the connector and the associated Azure Function

IMPORTANT: Before deploying the Proofpoint TAP connector, have the Workspace ID and Workspace Primary Key (can be copied from the following), as well as the Proofpoint TAP API Authorization Key(s), readily available.

• Workspace ID: WorkspaceId

  Note: The value above is dynamically provided when these instructions are presented within Microsoft Sentinel.

• Primary Key: PrimaryKey

  Note: The value above is dynamically provided when these instructions are presented within Microsoft Sentinel.

Option 1 - Azure Resource Manager (ARM) Template

Use this method for automated deployment of the Proofpoint TAP connector.

1. Click the Deploy to Azure button below.

   

2. Select the preferred Subscription, Resource Group and Location.

3. Enter the Workspace ID, Workspace Key, API Username, API Password, and validate the Uri.

• The default URI is pulling data for the last 300 seconds (5 minutes) to correspond with the default Function App Timer trigger of 5 minutes. If the time interval needs to be modified, it is recommended to change the Function App Timer Trigger accordingly (in the function.json file, post deployment) to prevent overlapping data ingestion.
• Note: If using Azure Key Vault secrets for any of the values above, use the@Microsoft.KeyVault(SecretUri={Security Identifier})schema in place of the string values. Refer to Key Vault references documentation for further details.

4. Mark the checkbox labeled I agree to the terms and conditions stated above.
5. Click Purchase to deploy.

Option 2 - Manual Deployment of Azure Functions

This method provides the step-by-step instructions to deploy the Proofpoint TAP connector manually with Azure Function (Deployment via Visual Studio Code). Step 1 - Deploy a Function App

1. Download the [Azure Function App](https://aka.ms/sentinelproofpointtapazurefunctionzip) file. Extract archive to your local development computer.

2. Follow the function app manual deployment instructions to deploy the Azure Functions app using VSCode.

3. After successful deployment of the function app, follow next steps for configuring it.

   Step 2 - Configure the Function App

   1. Go to Azure Portal for the Function App configuration.

4. In the Function App, select the Function App Name and select Configuration.

5. In the Application settings tab, select + New application setting.

6. Add each of the following six (6) application settings individually, with their respective string values (case-sensitive): apiUsername apipassword workspaceID workspaceKey uri logAnalyticsUri (optional)

5. Once all application settings have been entered, click Save.

• Set the uri value to: https://tap-api-v2.proofpoint.com/v2/siem/all?format=json&sinceSeconds=300
• The default URI is pulling data for the last 300 seconds (5 minutes) to correspond with the default Function App Timer trigger of 5 minutes. If the time interval needs to be modified, it is recommended to change the Function App Timer Trigger accordingly to prevent overlapping data ingestion.
• Note: If using Azure Key Vault secrets for any of the values above, use the@Microsoft.KeyVault(SecretUri={Security Identifier})schema in place of the string values. Refer to Key Vault references documentation for further details.
• Use logAnalyticsUri to override the log analytics API endpoint for dedicated cloud. For example, for public cloud, leave the value empty; for Azure GovUS cloud environment, specify the value in the following format: https://<CustomerId>.ods.opinsights.azure.us
