This rule detects suspicious Okta login attempts where a user successfully passes the initial authentication factor but then fails or abandons a subsequent Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) challenge, originating from a new IP address, device (user agent), and city combination. It filters out events from known corporate VPN IP addresses to reduce false positives.

The analytic detects the installation of a Linux kernel module using the `modprobe` utility. This activity is significant because installing a kernel module can indicate an attempt to deploy a rootkit or other malicious kernel-level code, potentially leading to elevated privileges and bypassing security detections. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to gain persistent, high-level access to the system, compromising its integrity and security.

Detects potential DLL Sideloading activity as used by LockBit ransomware operators. This rule identifies when a legitimate, signed application (e.g., MpCmdRun.exe, jarsigner.exe) loads a corresponding DLL from the same, non-standard directory, a common TTP for defense evasion.

The following analytic detects the installation of a Linux kernel module using the modprobe utility. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names and command-line executions. This activity is significant because installing a kernel module can indicate an attempt to deploy a rootkit or other malicious kernel-level code, potentially leading to elevated privileges and bypassing security detections. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to gain persistent, high-level access to the system, compromising its integrity and security.

Detects suspicious activities in Salesforce environments consistent with the TTPs of the ShinyHunters threat group (also tracked as UNC6040/UNC6240). The attack involves social engineering (vishing) to trick users into authorizing malicious OAuth applications that impersonate legitimate tools like 'Salesforce Data Loader'. This rule looks for key indicators such as the installation of unreviewed packages, creation of impersonating connected apps, elevation of permissions to 'full' API access, and large data exports.

Detects instances where NodeJS (node.exe) spawns the Command Processor (cmd.exe) to execute the 'reg add' command. This behavior is a known persistence technique used by the NodeInitRAT backdoor, associated with the Mocha Manakin threat actor, to add a run key to the Windows Registry.

Detects changes to the "DisableRestrictedAdmin" registry value in order to disable or enable RestrictedAdmin mode.
RestrictedAdmin mode prevents the transmission of reusable credentials to the remote system to which you connect using Remote Desktop.
This prevents your credentials from being harvested during the initial connection process if the remote server has been compromise

Detects when a Group Policy Object (GPO) is modified to include Client-Side Extensions (CSEs) for managing local group memberships or user rights assignments. While this can be a legitimate administrative action, attackers can abuse this capability to escalate privileges by adding accounts to sensitive local groups (e.g., Administrators) or granting powerful user rights. This alert serves as an early warning to investigate the specific changes made within the GPO.

This rule detects attempts to disable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) within Microsoft 365 services. Specifically, it looks for audit log entries containing the operation 'Disable Strong Authentication.' This action could be performed by an attacker to maintain persistent access to compromised accounts by removing an important security layer.

Detects when an application or service principal performs sensitive configuration changes, likely via the Microsoft Graph API. This can indicate an attacker using a compromised or malicious application for persistence (adding credentials), privilege escalation (adding owners), or defense evasion (modifying Conditional Access policies). This aligns with the "Consent & Compromise" research where attackers abuse application permissions.
