Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence APIs are now available without a separate MDTI license

29 August 2026 at 03:19

As of August 1, 2026, Microsoft Threat Intelligence APIs in Microsoft Graph are available to customers with Microsoft Defender XDR and/or Microsoft Sentinel licensing. No separate Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence API license is required.

This means we can bring Microsoft Threat Intelligence directly into SOC investigation and response workflows instead of keeping threat intelligence as something analysts only consume manually in the portal.

The available playbooks cover enrichment scenarios such as:
πŸ”Ή Automated triage
πŸ”Ή IP/domain reputation enrichment
πŸ”Ή Passive DNS
πŸ”Ή Reverse DNS
πŸ”Ή Web components
πŸ”Ή Trackers
πŸ”Ή Cookies

The playbooks use Microsoft Graph to query threat intelligence data and can authenticate using Managed Identity with the ThreatIntelligence.Read.All application permission.

New extended User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) capabilities for Microsoft Sentinel, currently in Preview.

New extended User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) capabilities for Microsoft Sentinel, currently in Preview.

Fortinet FortiGate β€” 40+ new behaviors
Sentinel can now analyze FortiGate events from CommonSecurityLog and identify behaviors such as:
β€’ Rapid system reconfiguration
β€’ Configuration backups
β€’ Certificate changes
β€’ Security service disruptions

Expanded anomaly detection
New UEBA anomaly detection capabilities extend coverage to:
β€’ Check Point
β€’ Fortinet FortiGate
β€’ Zscaler
β€’ AWS GuardDuty

For Check Point, Fortinet, and Zscaler, Sentinel introduces new anomaly rules that analyze firewall, VPN, and web proxy activity.

Instead of relying only on static detection logic, UEBA can compare activity against historical user/device behavior and organizational patterns to identify potentially suspicious deviations.

⚠️ Important: To use extended UEBA capabilities, Microsoft Sentinel workspace must be onboarded to the Microsoft Defender portal as part of the Unified Security Operations experience.

Agent 365 connector in public preview

Agent 365 connector in public preview

Microsoft has introduced the Agent 365 connector in public preview, bringing AI agent activity telemetry directly into Microsoft Sentinel.

Also, there is Microsoft Agent Identities (preview) Data Connector

With the new connector, security teams can monitor, hunt, and investigate AI agent activity using familiar Sentinel workflows. The telemetry is streamed into the Sentinel data lake, helping analysts correlate AI agent behavior with identity, endpoint, cloud, and other security signals.

Key capabilities include:

  • Unified telemetry across Agent 365 experiences
  • AI agent observability data normalized into an ASIM-aligned schema
  • Better hunting and analytics possibilities
  • Faster investigation with enriched context
  • Centralized visibility across digital environments

Try it out! πŸ˜„ Solution could be installed from Microsoft Sentinel Content Hub.

Identify which MFA methods your users actually use.

Identify which MFA methods your users actually use.

A simple KQL query against Sign-in logs gives you visibility into the MFA methods users are actually using:

SigninLogs | where TimeGenerated > ago(90d) | where ResultType == 0 | mv-expand AuthDetails = todynamic(AuthenticationDetails) | extend AuthMethod = tostring(AuthDetails.authenticationMethod) | where isnotempty(AuthMethod) | where AuthMethod !in ("Previously satisfied") | summarize AuthEvents = count(), Users = dcount(UserPrincipalName) by AuthMethod | order by AuthEvents desc
