Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.
Level: 2
Ensure that VNet Flow logs are captured and sent to Log Analytics for monitoring and analysis.
Virtual Network Flow Logs provide valuable insight into the flow of traffic within your virtual network and feed into both Azure Monitor and Azure Sentinel (if in use), permitting the generation of visual flow diagrams to aid with analyzing for lateral movement, etc. This is an enhancement over NSG Flow Logs as it captures traffic at the virtual network level rather than just network security group level.
