Microsoft Graph Security V1
The Sumo Logic app for Microsoft Graph Security V1 enables you to identify security threats by analyzing alert logs and helps you to improve web security posture, proactively detect and mitigate potential security risks, and improve compliance with security policies and regulations.
This version of the app uses alerts from Microsoft Graph API and continues to be supported for existing customers who are bringing in alerts from that source. If you are setting up a new cloud-to-cloud source, it will use API V2 which is covered by the Microsoft Graph Security V2 app.
Key features of the Microsoft Graph Security app include:
- Detect and mitigate potential ransomware attacks.
- Monitor endpoint security and identify potential threats.
- High-level overview of the organizational security posture, including metrics such as the number of alerts, alert severity, and status.
- Allows security teams to identify potential threats and take appropriate action based on the trends and patterns of security alerts over time.
Log types
This app uses Sumo Logic’s Microsoft Graph Security Source to collect Alerts from Microsoft Graph Security.

Collection configuration and app installation
Depending on the set up collection method, you can configure and install the app in three ways:
- Create a new collector and install the app. Create a new Sumo Logic Cloud-to-Cloud (C2C) source under a new Sumo Logic Collector and later install the app; Or
- Use an existing collector and install the app. Create a new Sumo Logic Cloud-to-Cloud (C2C) source under an existing Sumo Logic Collector and later install the app; Or
- Use existing source and install the app. Use your existing configured Sumo Logic Cloud-to-Cloud (C2C) source and install the app.
Use the Cloud-to-Cloud Integration for Microsoft Graph Security to create the source and use the same source category while installing the app. By following these steps, you can ensure that your Microsoft Graph Security app is properly integrated and configured to collect and analyze your Microsoft Graph Security data.
Create a new collector and install the app
To set up collection and install the app, do the following:
- Select App Catalog.
- In the 🔎 Search Apps field, run a search for your desired app, then select it.
- Click Install App.
note
Sometimes this button says Add Integration.
- In the Set Up Collection section of your respective app, select Create a new Collector.
- Collector Name. Enter a Name to display for the Source in the Sumo Logic web application. The description is optional.
- Timezone. Set the default time zone when it is not extracted from the log timestamp. Time zone settings on Sources override a Collector time zone setting.
- (Optional) Metadata. Click the +Add Metadata link to add custom log Metadata Fields. Define the fields you want to associate, each metadata field needs a name (key) and value.
A green circle with a check mark is shown when the field exists and is enabled in the Fields table schema.
An orange triangle with an exclamation point is shown when the field doesn't exist, or is disabled, in the Fields table schema. In this case, an option to automatically add or enable the nonexistent fields to the Fields table schema is provided. If a field is sent to Sumo that does not exist in the Fields schema or is disabled it is ignored, known as dropped.
- Click Next.

Viewing Microsoft Graph Security dashboards
All dashboards have a set of filters that you can apply to the entire dashboard. Use these filters to drill down and examine the data to a granular level.
- You can change the time range for a dashboard or panel by selecting a predefined interval from a drop-down list, choosing a recently used time range, or specifying custom dates and times. Learn more.
- You can use template variables to drill down and examine the data on a granular level. For more information, see Filtering Dashboards with Template Variables.
- Most Next-Gen apps allow you to provide the scope at the installation time and are comprised of a key (
_sourceCategoryby default) and a default value for this key. Based on your input, the app dashboards will be parameterized with a dashboard variable, allowing you to change the dataset queried by all panels. This eliminates the need to create multiple copies of the same dashboard with different queries.
