— What We Monitor

Every Entra ID event —
monitored in real time

Our AI ingests every security and audit event in your Entra ID tenant via Microsoft Graph API. Nothing is missed — every signal is baselined, analysed, and flagged for human investigation if anomalous.

Sign-In Monitoring

Every authentication event — successful, failed, and interactive sign-ins. AI flags brute-force patterns, legacy auth attempts, and anomalous sign-in properties in real time.

Impossible Travel Detection

AI correlates sign-in locations and timestamps to detect impossible travel — a sign-in from London followed by one from Singapore 10 minutes later means a compromised account.

Password Reset Monitoring

Every password reset, change, and self-service password registration tracked. Spike in resets across multiple accounts? AI flags it as a potential coordinated attack pattern.

MFA Event Monitoring

MFA registrations, bypasses, fraud reports, and method deregistrations monitored. A user suddenly removing their MFA method is a leading indicator of account takeover.

Privilege Escalation Tracking

Role assignments, admin group changes, consent grants, and app role assignments. Alert fires the moment a standard user gains unexpected elevated access.

Audit Log Correlation

Every audit event — directory changes, app registrations, service principal activity, group membership changes, policy modifications — ingested and correlated by AI.

Identity Protection Risk Events

Entra Identity Protection signals — leaked credentials, unfamiliar sign-in properties, infected devices, anomalous token usage — enriched with AI context for fast triage.

Conditional Access Monitoring

Policy creation, modification, and failure events tracked. A misconfigured conditional access policy can open a security gap — AI catches it before it's exploited.

— Response Actions

When a threat is confirmed,
we respond immediately

Our analysts don't just alert — they act. Pre-agreed response playbooks let us contain threats within minutes via Microsoft Graph API.

Force Sign-Out

Immediately revoke all active sessions for a compromised user — cutting off attacker access within seconds.

Revoke Sessions

Invalidate refresh tokens and session tokens via Microsoft Graph API — preventing persistent access.

Reset Credentials

Force a password reset and require re-registration of MFA — locking the attacker out while keeping the user productive.

Disable Account

Temporarily disable the Entra ID account for high-severity confirmed compromises — stopping all access immediately.

Revoke OAuth Grants

Revoke malicious consent grants and app permissions that attackers may have added to maintain access.

Notify & Report

Real-time notification to your security team with full incident context, timeline, and remediation summary.

Confirmed threats contained — sign-out, session revoke, credential reset, account disable — within minutes.

— Why Monitor Entra ID?

Why Entra ID monitoring
is critical for your business

Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) is the identity backbone of your business. Every employee, contractor, and service authenticates through it. Compromised credentials are the #1 attack vector for UK businesses — 81% of breaches involve stolen or weak credentials.

Without real-time monitoring, you're blind to identity threats until it's too late. An attacker signs in from a new location, deregisters MFA, resets a password, escalates privileges — and you find out days or weeks later when data is already stolen.

Coreitech's Entra ID monitoring closes this gap. AI watches every event in real time, baselines normal behaviour, and alerts human analysts the moment something looks wrong. From anomalous sign-in to analyst investigation in under 60 seconds.

This isn't just SIEM log collection or static rule-based alerting. It's AI-powered, behaviour-based, human-investigated identity security — purpose-built for the modern Microsoft cloud.

— FAQ

Entra ID monitoring —
your questions answered

Q.What is Microsoft Entra ID security monitoring?

Microsoft Entra ID security monitoring is the continuous, real-time surveillance of all authentication and audit events in your Entra ID tenant (formerly Azure AD). Coreitech's monitoring covers every sign-in (successful and failed), password reset, MFA change, privilege escalation, conditional access policy change, and audit log entry. AI analyses each event against learned behavioural baselines and alerts our UK-based SOC analysts in under 60 seconds when an anomaly is detected. This ensures identity-based threats — the leading cause of data breaches — are caught and contained before damage is done.

Q.How does Entra ID monitoring detect compromised accounts?

Coreitech's AI SOC detects compromised accounts by monitoring multiple Entra ID signals simultaneously: (1) impossible travel — sign-ins from geographically impossible locations; (2) anomalous sign-in properties — unfamiliar IP addresses, devices, or browsers; (3) brute-force patterns — repeated failed sign-ins followed by success; (4) MFA deregistration — a user suddenly removing their MFA method; (5) privilege escalation — unexpected admin role assignments; (6) leaked credentials — Entra Identity Protection risk events. AI correlates these signals in real time, baselines normal behaviour per user, and flags deviations for human analyst investigation.

Q.What Entra ID logs does the AI SOC monitor?

Coreitech monitors all Entra ID security and audit logs via Microsoft Graph API, including: sign-in logs (interactive, non-interactive, service principal, managed identity), audit logs (directory changes, app registrations, group membership, role assignments), Identity Protection risk events (risky users, risky sign-ins, leaked credentials), conditional access policy logs, MFA activity logs, and password activity logs. Every event is ingested in real time, baselined by AI, and analysed for anomalies. No log source is missed — comprehensive coverage of your entire Entra ID environment.

Q.How fast are Entra ID security alerts?

Coreitech's AI SOC generates Entra ID alerts in under 60 seconds from the triggering event. The AI ingests events via Microsoft Graph API in real time, analyses them against learned behavioural baselines, and fires an alert immediately when an anomaly is detected. The alert is then picked up by a UK-based SOC analyst — typically within minutes, 24/7. For comparison, traditional SOC models using batch processing or manual log review can take hours or days to surface the same threat.

Q.Can you respond to Entra ID threats or just alert?

Coreitech provides full response capability, not just alerting. When a threat is confirmed by a human analyst, we can take immediate containment actions via Microsoft Graph API: force user sign-out (revoke all sessions), invalidate refresh tokens, reset credentials and require MFA re-registration, temporarily disable the account, and revoke malicious OAuth grants. Response actions are pre-agreed with you via an incident response playbook, so analysts can act immediately without waiting for approval — critical during an active account takeover.

Q.Do I need Microsoft 365 to use Entra ID monitoring?

You need a Microsoft Entra ID tenant, which is included with any Microsoft 365 business plan (Business Basic, Standard, Premium) or available as a standalone Azure AD/Entra ID licence. Coreitech connects via Microsoft Graph API with read-only audit permissions — no agents, no servers, no additional infrastructure. If your business uses Microsoft 365 for email, Teams, SharePoint, or any Microsoft cloud service, you already have Entra ID and can be monitored within 24 hours.

Q.What is the difference between Entra ID monitoring and SIEM?

SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) is a log aggregation platform that requires rules, tuning, and manual analysis — it generates raw alerts without context and causes alert fatigue. Entra ID monitoring (as delivered by Coreitech's AI SOC) is purpose-built for identity threats: it uses AI to baseline normal behaviour per user, filter false positives automatically, enrich alerts with context before analyst review, and includes human investigation and response. SIEM is a tool; our AI SOC is a complete service — monitoring, detection, investigation, and response — with no setup, tuning, or management required from your team.

Q.How much does Entra ID security monitoring cost?

Coreitech's Entra ID security monitoring starts from £15 per user per month, which includes real-time sign-in and audit log monitoring, AI-powered anomaly detection, 24/7 UK-based human analyst investigation, and full incident response (sign-out, session revoke, account disable). For a 50-user business that's £750/month — compared to building an in-house SOC (£500,000+/year) or a traditional managed SOC (£25–£40/user/month with less coverage). Contact us for a tailored quote based on your Entra ID tenant size and risk profile.

Q.Can Entra ID monitoring prevent account takeover?

Yes. Account takeover via compromised credentials is the #1 attack vector for UK businesses. Coreitech's Entra ID monitoring prevents account takeover by: (1) detecting impossible travel and anomalous sign-ins before the attacker can act; (2) flagging MFA deregistration — a key step in many takeover attacks; (3) alerting on brute-force patterns before they succeed; (4) catching privilege escalation attempts in real time; (5) responding with immediate session revocation and credential reset. The combination of AI speed (under 60-second alerts) and human analyst judgement (investigate and respond) dramatically reduces the risk of successful account takeover.

Q.Is Entra ID monitoring the same as Entra Identity Protection?

No. Microsoft Entra Identity Protection is a Microsoft feature that provides risk-based identity protection (risky users, risky sign-ins, leaked credentials). Coreitech's monitoring includes Identity Protection risk events but goes much further: we monitor ALL Entra ID logs (sign-ins, audit logs, MFA, conditional access, password activity), use AI to correlate signals and baseline behaviour (Identity Protection uses static rules), include human analyst investigation of every alert (Identity Protection is automated only), and provide full response capability (sign-out, revoke, disable). Think of our monitoring as Identity Protection on steroids — with human intelligence and response built in.
