📚 Usage Examples

Example 1: Threat Event Analysis

# In-depth incident analysis
{
  "tool": "threat_event_analysis",
  "parameters": {
    "incident_number": 12345,
    "timespan": "24h"
  }
}

# Results:
# - MITRE ATT&CK mapping
# - Extracted IoC list
# - Threat summary and recommendations

Example 2: Next Attack Stage Prediction

# Prediction based on observed TTPs

🛡️ Security Considerations

⚠️ Important: Test Environment Only

This MCP server is designed for use in test/development environments only.

Additional Considerations for Production Use:

1. Action Execution Permissions: Automation Executor requires strong permissions - strict RBAC configuration essential
2. Approval Workflow: Critical actions must implement multi-stage approval processes
3. Audit Logs: Record all action execution history in separate logging system
4. Data Exposure: Sentinel data may contain sensitive information - consider data masking
5. Network Isolation: MCP server should operate in secure network segment

Permission Requirements

Azure Sentinel:

• Microsoft.OperationalInsights/workspaces/read
• Microsoft.OperationalInsights/workspaces/query/*/read
• Microsoft.SecurityInsights/*/read

Automation Execution (Optional):

• Microsoft.SecurityInsights/incidents/write
• Microsoft.Logic/workflows/run/action

🔧 Extension and Customization

Adding New Playbooks

# Add to playbooks/executor.py

custom_playbook = ResponsePlaybook(
    playbook_id="pb_custom_001",
    name="Custom Response Playbook",
    description="Response for specific scenario",
    trigger_conditions={
        "severity": ["Critical"],
        "techniques": ["T1234"]
    },
    actions=[
        ResponseAction(
            action_id="act_custom_001",
            action_type=ActionType.BLOCK_IP,
            target="malicious_ips",
            requires_approval=False
        )
    ],
    execution_mode="semi_auto"
)

Adding New Tools

# tools/custom_tools.py

from tools.base import MCPToolBase

class MyCustomTool(MCPToolBase):
    name = "my_custom_tool"
    description = "Custom analysis tool"

    async def run(self, ctx: Context, **kwargs) -> Dict:
        # Implementation
        return self.wrap_result({"data": "result"})

def register_tools(mcp: FastMCP):
    MyCustomTool.register(mcp)

📊 Performance Optimization

• Caching: Frequently accessed data uses TTL cache (default 10 minutes)
• Parallel Processing: Independent queries executed in parallel
• Query Optimization: KQL queries select only necessary columns

🐛 Troubleshooting

Authentication Errors

# Re-authenticate Azure CLI
az logout
az login
az account set --subscription your-subscription-id

Query Timeouts

# Increase timeout in task_manager.py
timeout=120.0  # default 60 seconds

Module Import Errors

# Check Python path
export PYTHONPATH="${PYTHONPATH}:$(pwd)"
