analyzing-azure-activity-logs-for-threats

analyzing-azure-activity-logs-for-threats is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from adriannoes/awesome-agentic-ai. It costs 68 tokens per session (546 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of analyzing-azure-activity-logs-for-threats, MIT.

A guide to searching Azure Monitor activity and sign-in logs, which record changes and access events in Microsoft's cloud platform. It uses KQL, Azure's query language, to look for suspicious administration and sign-in behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for Azure threat hunting, incident investigations, detection-rule development, and checking suspicious role assignments or sign-in activity in Log Analytics workspaces.
Why use it?
It helps security teams examine large volumes of Azure logs with repeatable queries instead of reviewing events one by one. The checks target unusual administrative actions, travel patterns, privilege changes, and resource modifications.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

analyzing-azure-activity-logs-for-threats scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/agent.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Analyzing Azure Activity Logs for Threats

When to Use

  • When investigating security incidents that require analyzing azure activity logs for threats
  • When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
  • When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
  • When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques

Prerequisites

  • Familiarity with security operations concepts and tools
  • Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
  • Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
  • Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

Instructions

Use azure-monitor-query to execute KQL queries against Azure Log Analytics workspaces, detecting suspicious admin operations and sign-in anomalies.

from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.monitor.query import LogsQueryClient
from datetime import timedelta

credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = LogsQueryClient(credential)

response = client.query_workspace(
    workspace_id="WORKSPACE_ID",
    query="AzureActivity | where OperationNameValue has 'MICROSOFT.AUTHORIZATION/ROLEASSIGNMENTS/WRITE' | take 10",
    timespan=timedelta(hours=24),
)

Key detection queries:

  1. Role assignment changes (privilege escalation)
  2. Resource group and subscription modifications
  3. Key vault secret access from new IPs
  4. Network security group rule changes
  5. Conditional access policy modifications

Examples

# Detect new Global Admin role assignments
query = '''
AuditLogs
| where OperationName == "Add member to role"
| where TargetResources[0].modifiedProperties[0].newValue has "Global Administrator"
'''
Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
