DisplayName: "Azure Virtual Network Deleted"
Enabled: true
LogTypes:
  - Azure.MonitorActivity
Severity: High
Description: >
  Detects when an Azure Virtual Network (VNet) is deleted.
  VNet deletion removes the entire network infrastructure and disconnects all resources within it, causing significant service disruption.
  This may indicate ransomware activity, sabotage, or unauthorized infrastructure destruction.
Reports:
  MITRE ATT&CK:
    - TA0040:T1485 # Impact: Data Destruction
    - TA0040:T1499 # Impact: Endpoint Denial of Service
Runbook: |
  1. Find all Azure Monitor Activity resource deletion operations by the callerIpAddress in the 24 hours before and after the alert to identify if multiple resources are being destroyed
  2. Query for Azure Monitor Activity events related to the deleted VNet resourceId in the 6 hours before deletion to identify connected resources and assess service impact
  3. Check if the callerIpAddress is associated with known VPN services or corporate IP ranges and compare to the caller's authentication patterns in the past 30 days
