 ## DESCRIPTION
 
 Auditing for Azure SQL Database tracks database events and writes them to an audit log.
-Audit logs help you find suspicious events, unusual activity, and trends.
+Data collected from auditing can be used to help find suspicious events, unusual activity, and trends.
+
+When managing security events at scale, it is important to have a centralized location to store and analyze security data.
+A security information and event management (SIEM) system to consolidate security data in a central location.
+Once the security data is in a central location it can be correlated across various services.
+Security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) tools can be used to automate responses to security events.
+
+Microsoft Sentinel is a scalable, cloud-native solution that provides:
+
+- Security information and event management (SIEM).
+- Security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR).
 
 ## RECOMMENDATION
 
 Consider enabling auditing for each SQL Database logical server and review reports on a regular basis.
+Also consider enforcing this setting using Azure Policy.
