'Identifies any Azure VM Run Command operations and links these operations with
MDE host logging. Linking these two data sources provides hunting opportunities.
Logging from AzureActivity provides the IP address and UPN of the account that
invoked the command. Joining this with logging from MDE provides insights into
what cmdlets were loaded by the command.'

This pre-configuration of required resource access drives the consent experience. The resourceAccess property of the requiredResourceAccess type is a collection of ResourceAccess.
A threat actor might update this property before granting permissions to an application.

'Detects when a Temporary Access Pass (TAP) is created for a Privileged Account.
A Temporary Access Pass is a time-limited passcode issued by an admin that satisfies strong authentication requirements and can be used to onboard other authentication methods, including Passwordless ones such as Microsoft Authenticator or even Windows Hello.
A threat actor could use a TAP to register a new authentication method to maintain persistance to an account.
Review any TAP creations to ensure they were used legitimately.
