| **PowerZure exploitation toolkit used to enumerate storage containers, shares, and tables**<br>(ARM_PowerZure.ShowStorageContent) | PowerZure exploitation toolkit was used to enumerate storage shares, tables, and containers. This was detected by analyzing Azure Resource Manager operations in your subscription. | - | High |

| **PREVIEW - Activity from a risky IP address**<br>(ARM.MCAS_ActivityFromAnonymousIPAddresses) | Users activity from an IP address that has been identified as an anonymous proxy IP address has been detected.<br>These proxies are used by people who want to hide their device's IP address, and can be used for malicious intent. This detection uses a machine learning algorithm that reduces false positives, such as mis-tagged IP addresses that are widely used by users in the organization.<br>Requires an active Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps license. | - | Medium |

| **PREVIEW - Activity from infrequent country**<br>(ARM.MCAS_ActivityFromInfrequentCountry) | Activity from a location that wasn't recently or ever visited by any user in the organization has occurred.<br>This detection considers past activity locations to determine new and infrequent locations. The anomaly detection engine stores information about previous locations used by users in the organization.<br>Requires an active Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps license. | - | Medium |

| **PREVIEW - Azurite toolkit run detected**<br>(ARM_Azurite) | A known cloud-environment reconnaissance toolkit run has been detected in your environment. The tool [Azurite](https://github.com/mwrlabs/Azurite) can be used by an attacker (or penetration tester) to map your subscriptions' resources and identify insecure configurations. | Collection | High |

| **PREVIEW - Impossible travel activity**<br>(ARM.MCAS_ImpossibleTravelActivity) | Two user activities (in a single or multiple sessions) have occurred, originating from geographically distant locations. This occurs within a time period shorter than the time it would have taken the user to travel from the first location to the second. This indicates that a different user is using the same credentials.<br>This detection uses a machine learning algorithm that ignores obvious false positives contributing to the impossible travel conditions, such as VPNs and locations regularly used by other users in the organization. The detection has an initial learning period of seven days, during which it learns a new user's activity pattern.<br>Requires an active Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps license. | - | Medium |

| **PREVIEW - Suspicious creation of compute resources detected**<br>(ARM_SuspiciousComputeCreation) | Microsoft Defender for Resource Manager identified a suspicious creation of compute resources in your subscription utilizing Virtual Machines/Azure Scale Set. The identified operations are designed to allow administrators to efficiently manage their environments by deploying new resources when needed. While this activity may be legitimate, a threat actor might utilize such operations to conduct crypto mining.<br> The activity is deemed suspicious as the compute resources scale is higher than previously observed in the subscription. <br> This can indicate that the principal is compromised and is being used with malicious intent. | Impact | Medium |

| **PREVIEW - Suspicious key vault recovery detected**<br>(Arm_Suspicious_Vault_Recovering) | Microsoft Defender for Resource Manager detected a suspicious recovery operation for a soft-deleted key vault resource.<br> The user recovering the resource is different from the user that deleted it. This is highly suspicious because the user rarely invokes such an operation. In addition, the user logged on without multi-factor authentication (MFA).<br> This might indicate that the user is compromised and is attempting to discover secrets and keys to gain access to sensitive resources, or to perform lateral movement across your network. | Lateral movement | Medium/high |
397391
| **PREVIEW - Suspicious management session using an inactive account detected**<br>(ARM_UnusedAccountPersistence) | Subscription activity logs analysis has detected suspicious behavior. A principal not in use for a long period of time is now performing actions that can secure persistence for an attacker. | Persistence | Medium |
398392
| **PREVIEW - Suspicious invocation of a high-risk 'Credential Access' operation by a service principal detected**<br>(ARM_AnomalousServiceOperation.CredentialAccess) | Microsoft Defender for Resource Manager identified a suspicious invocation of a high-risk operation in your subscription which might indicate an attempt to access credentials. The identified operations are designed to allow administrators to efficiently manage their environments. While this activity may be legitimate, a threat actor might utilize such operations to access restricted credentials and compromise resources in your environment. This can indicate that the service principal is compromised and is being used with malicious intent. | Credential access | Medium |
