Azure audit sqlserver threat detection disabled remediation

Using Console

Using CLI

Using Python

To remediate the misconfiguration of Threat Detection being disabled for SQL Servers in AZURE using Python, you can follow the below steps:

Import the necessary libraries:

from azure.common.credentials import ServicePrincipalCredentials
from azure.mgmt.sql import SqlManagementClient

Set the credentials for authentication:

subscription_id = 'your_subscription_id'
client_id = 'your_client_id'
secret = 'your_secret_key'
tenant = 'your_tenant_id'

credentials = ServicePrincipalCredentials(client_id=client_id, secret=secret, tenant=tenant)

Initialize the SQL Management Client:

sql_client = SqlManagementClient(credentials, subscription_id)

Get the list of SQL servers:

servers = sql_client.servers.list()

Loop through the servers and check if Threat Detection is enabled:

for server in servers:
    threat_detection_policy = sql_client.server_security_alert_policies.get(server.resource_group_name, server.name)
    if not threat_detection_policy.state:
        # Enable Threat Detection
        threat_detection_policy.state = 'Enabled'
        sql_client.server_security_alert_policies.create_or_update(server.resource_group_name, server.name, threat_detection_policy)

If Threat Detection is disabled, enable it:

    if not threat_detection_policy.state:
        # Enable Threat Detection
        threat_detection_policy.state = 'Enabled'
        sql_client.server_security_alert_policies.create_or_update(server.resource_group_name, server.name, threat_detection_policy)

If Threat Detection is already enabled, print a message:

    else:
        print(f'Threat Detection is already enabled for SQL server {server.name}')

Run the script to remediate the misconfiguration.

This script will check all the SQL servers in the specified subscription and enable Threat Detection if it is disabled. If Threat Detection is already enabled, it will print a message stating that it is already enabled.
