Description
This alert joins Azure Information Protection Logs (InformationProtectionLogs_CL) with Microsoft Entra ID Sign in Logs (SigninLogs) to provide a correlation of sensitive data access by geo-location. Results include User Principal Name, Label Name, Activity, City, State, Country/Region, and Time Generated. Recommended configuration is to include (or exclude) Sign in geo-locations (City, State, Country and/or Region) for trusted organizational locations. There is an option for configuration of correlations against Microsoft Sentinel watchlists. Accessing sensitive data from a new or unauthorized geo-location warrants further review. For more information see [Sign-in logs in Microsoft Entra ID: Location Filtering](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/reports-monitoring/concept-sign-ins)
