# Ensure that Intune logs are captured and sent to Log Analytics

## Description

Ensure that Intune logs are captured and fed into a central log analytics workspace.

## Rationale

Intune includes built-in logs that provide information about your environments. Sending logs to a Log Analytics workspace enables centralized analysis, correlation, and alerting for faster threat detection and response.

## Impact

A Microsoft Intune plan is required to access Intune. The amount of data logged and, thus, the cost incurred can vary significantly depending on the tenant size.

## Audit Procedure

### Using Azure Portal

1. Go to `Intune`.
2. Click `Reports`.
3. Under `Azure monitor`, click `Diagnostic settings`.
4. Next to each diagnostic setting, click `Edit setting`, and review the selected log categories and destination details.
5. Ensure that at least one diagnostic setting is configured to send the following logs to a Log Analytics workspace:
   - `AuditLogs`
   - `OperationalLogs`
   - `DeviceComplianceOrg`
   - `Devices`
   - `Windows365AuditLogs`

## Expected Result

At least one Intune diagnostic setting should exist that sends AuditLogs, OperationalLogs, DeviceComplianceOrg, Devices, and Windows365AuditLogs to a Log Analytics workspace.

## Remediation

### Remediate from Azure Portal

1. Go to `Intune`.
2. Click `Reports`.
3. Under `Azure monitor`, click `Diagnostic settings`.
4. Click `+ Add diagnostic setting`.
5. Provide a `Diagnostic setting name`.
6. Under `Logs > Categories`, check the box next to each of the following logs:
   - `AuditLogs`
   - `OperationalLogs`
   - `DeviceComplianceOrg`
   - `Devices`
   - `Windows365AuditLogs`
7. Under `Destination details`, check the box next to `Send to Log Analytics workspace`.
8. Select a `Subscription`.
9. Select a `Log Analytics workspace`.
10. Click `Save`.

## Default Value

By default, Intune diagnostic settings do not exist.
