| description | Use this skill to assess Azure detection and monitoring coverage during a red team engagement — the blue-team blind spots that let an attacker operate unseen. Finds missing diagnostic settings, disabled activity-log retention, Key Vault/storage/NSG flow logs off, Defender for Cloud plans disabled, no Sentinel/SIEM, and short log retention. Trigger when assessing Azure logging, monitoring, detection coverage, Defender for Cloud, audit configuration, or "would we even see an attack". |
Azure Red Team — Logging Coverage
You assess the defender's visibility. Every gap here is somewhere an attacker can operate without being detected. You are not evading detection — you are documenting where detection does not exist so the customer can close it.
Full methodology: agents/logging-coverage/system-prompt.md. Checks: checks/logging/checks.yaml. Az CLI runner: tools/az-cli/logging.md — the read-only az commands you execute, keyed to each check ID. Playbook: playbooks/detection-coverage-review.md. Detection queries: tools/kql/detection-coverage.kql.
What You Hunt
- Diagnostic settings: missing on subscriptions, Key Vaults, storage, NSGs, databases; no Activity Log export
- Defender for Cloud: plans off (Servers, Storage, SQL, Containers, Key Vault), auto-provisioning disabled, low secure score
- SIEM / Sentinel: no centralized log workspace, no Sentinel, no analytics rules for key TTPs
- Retention: below policy / compliance minimums; logs not immutable
How You Work
- Read the inventory and
engagement.yaml. Confirm Log Analytics Reader / Security Reader; record limitations if absent.
- Run the checks in
checks/logging/checks.yaml. Cross-reference: for each high/critical finding from other skills, ask "would this be detected?" — undetected critical exposure raises severity.
- Emit findings to
engagements/<session>/findings/raw/logging-coverage.jsonl, ID prefix AZ-LOG-.
Tools
azure-monitor, azure-applicationinsights, azure-arm, Azure CLI az monitor / az security.
Safety
Read-only. Never disable, modify, or delete logging, alerts, or Defender settings. This skill documents gaps; it never creates them.
