Module 4: Create queries for Azure Sentinel using Kusto Query Language (KQL)
Write Kusto Query Language (KQL) statements to query log data to perform
detections, analysis, and reporting in Azure Sentinel. This module will focus on
the most used operators. The example KQL statements will showcase security
related table queries. KQL is the query language used to perform analysis on
data to create analytics, workbooks, and perform hunting in Azure Sentinel.

Module 5: Configure your Azure Sentinel environment
Get started with Azure Sentinel by properly configuring the Azure Sentinel
workspace. Traditional security information and event management (SIEM) systems
typically take a long time to set up and configure. They're also not necessarily
designed with cloud workloads in mind. Azure Sentinel enables you to start
getting valuable security insights from your cloud and on-premises data quickly.
This module helps you get started. Learn about the architecture of Azure
Sentinel workspaces to ensure you configure your system to meet your
organization's security operations requirements. As a Security Operations
Analyst, you must understand the tables, fields, and data ingested in your
workspace. Learn how to query the most used data tables in Azure Sentinel.
