  • A Netskope Cloud Exchange tenant with the Log Shipper module already configured.

  • An Azure Sentinel instance.

Note

Verify your Azure Sentinel instance permissions are secure and not set up for open public access. Only allow access to your cloud storage instance from your Cloud Exchange Host and any other addresses that need access.

  1. Obtain the Azure Sentinel Workspace ID and Primary Key.

  2. Configure the Azure Sentinel plugin.

  3. Configure Log Shipper Mapping Files.

  4. Configure Log Shipper Business Rules.

  5. Create Log Shipper SIEM mappings.

  6. Validate the plugin.

Log Shipper comes with a default mapping file for Azure Sentinel plugin. If you need all the fields in Netskope alerts and events to be ingested on Azure Sentinel, then do not make any changes to this default mapping file.

If you want only specific fields of alerts and events to be ingested on Azure Sentinel, then create a new mapping file and add those fields into the contents of the default mapping file so Log Shipper will ingest only those particular attributes.

Skip this step if you do not want to filter out alerts or events before ingestion.

  1. Go to Log Shipper > Business Rules.
