This is a domain solution and does not include any data connectors. The content in this solution requires one of the product solutions below, as well as any other connector or data source normalized to the ASIM.
Prerequisite :-
Install one or more of the listed solutions, or develop your custom ASIM parsers to unlock the value provided by this solution.
- Windows Server DNS
- Azure Firewall
- Cisco Umbrella
- Corelight Zeek
- Google Cloud Platform DNS
- Infoblox NIOS
- ISC Bind
- Vectra AI
- Zscaler Internet Access
Underlying Microsoft Technologies used:
This solution takes a dependency on the following technologies, and some of these dependencies either may be in Preview state or might result in additional ingestion or operational costs:
- Product solutions as described above
- Logic app for data summarization
Recommendation :-
It is highly recommended to use the Summarize Data for DNS Essentials Solution logic app playbook provided with this solution as it will significantly improve the performance of the Workbook, Analytic rules & Hunting queries. NOTE: This solution includes the playbook SummarizeData_DNSEssentials, which uses the legacy HTTP data collector API to ingest data. Since that API is about to be deprecated, we recommend using the SummarizeDNSData_DNS_logingestion playbook instead. It ingests data into the new tables - DNS_Summarized_Logs_sourceInfoV1_CL and DNS_Summarized_Logs_ipV1_CL
