Correct Answer:
ā
C. A Log Analytics workspace
Explanation:
To analyze Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) sign-in logs using Azure Monitor, you need to configure diagnostic settings to send the logs to an appropriate destination.
š¹ Log Analytics workspace is the recommended and most effective destination for analyzing sign-in logs because:
It integrates with Azure Monitor and Microsoft Sentinel for advanced security insights.
You can run Kusto Query Language (KQL) queries to analyze sign-in patterns and detect anomalies.
It supports log retention, alerting, and visualization in Azure Monitor.
Why Are the Other Options Incorrect?
A. An Azure Event Hub ā Used for streaming logs to third-party SIEMs or external systems, not for direct analysis in Azure Monitor.
B. An Azure SQL Database ā Not supported as a destination for Microsoft Entra sign-in logs. SQL is used for structured data storage, not log analytics.
D. An Azure Storage Account ā Used for archiving logs, but does not provide built-in analytics, search, or visualization like Log Analytics.
