Description

Azure Security Center allows for the automatic provisioning of data collection agents on compute resources (virtual machines) in a given Azure subscription, as described in the docs here.

In summary this is a subscription wide setting and is a simple toggle "on" or "off", the enforcement of this setting is left to Azure Security Center

This setting can not be configured via Terraform today, but is needed by customers wishing to enforce certain policies and governance on subscriptions managed through Terraform.
This setting is available in the Go SDK and the Azure ARM API.

New or Affected Resource(s)

I propose a new resource under the Security Center Resources group, namely:

• azurerm_security_center_auto_provisioning

This resource would be nearly identical to the existing azurerm_security_center_subscription_pricing resource, it would accept a string value for the auto provisioning setting, namely "on" or "off", as described in the Azure API docs

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "azurerm_security_center_auto_provisioning" "example" {
  auto_provision = "On"
}
