The following analytic detects the resetting of the master user password for an Amazon RDS DB instance. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs from Amazon Security Lake to identify events where the `ModifyDBInstance` API call includes a new `masterUserPassword` parameter. This activity is significant because unauthorized password resets can grant attackers access to sensitive data stored in production databases, such as credit card information, PII, and healthcare data. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to data breaches, regulatory non-compliance, and significant reputational damage. Immediate investigation is required to determine the legitimacy of the password reset.
The analytic identifies a successful single-factor authentication event against Azure Active Directory. It leverages Azure SignInLogs data, specifically focusing on events where single-factor authentication succeeded. This activity is significant as it may indicate a misconfiguration, policy violation, or potential account takeover attempt. If confirmed malicious, an attacker could gain unauthorized access to the account, potentially leading to data breaches, privilege escalation, or further exploitation within the environment.
The analytic detects port security violations on Cisco switches by leveraging logs from Cisco network devices. It specifically looks for events with mnemonics indicating port security violations. This activity is significant because it indicates an unauthorized device attempting to connect to a secured port, potentially bypassing network access controls. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the network, leading to data exfiltration, network disruption, or further lateral movement within the environment.
The following analytic detects attempts to disable multi-factor authentication (MFA) for an AWS IAM user. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs to identify events where MFA devices are deleted or deactivated. This activity is significant because disabling MFA can indicate an adversary attempting to weaken account security, potentially to maintain persistence using a compromised account. If confirmed malicious, this action could allow attackers to retain access to the AWS environment without detection, posing a significant risk to the security and integrity of the cloud infrastructure.
This analytic detects the execution of AdvancedRun.exe, a utility that allows users to run programs with different administrative privileges, user accounts, or environment settings. It identifies the process by its name or original file name and flags common command-line arguments often used for configuration or specific execution parameters. Monitoring this activity is crucial as AdvancedRun can be leveraged by attackers for remote code execution, privilege escalation, or maintaining persistence within an environment, similar to tools like PsExec. If used maliciously, it could enable the execution of arbitrary commands or configuration-based automation.
This analytic detects SSL certificates with Punycode domains in the SSL issuer email domain, identified by the prefix "xn--". It leverages the Certificates Datamodel to flag these domains and uses CyberChef for decoding. This activity is significant as Punycode can be used for domain spoofing and phishing attacks. If confirmed malicious, attackers could deceive users and systems, potentially leading to unauthorized access and data breaches.
The following analytic detects attempts to disable multi-factor authentication (MFA) for an AWS IAM user. It leverages Amazon Security Lake logs, specifically monitoring for `DeleteVirtualMFADevice` or `DeactivateMFADevice` API operations. This activity is significant as disabling MFA can indicate an adversary attempting to weaken account security to maintain persistence using a compromised account. If confirmed malicious, this action could allow attackers to retain access to the AWS environment without detection, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive resources and prolonged compromise.
The analytic identifies multiple failed multi-factor authentication (MFA) requests to an AWS Console for a single user within a short timeframe (more than 10 failed MFA prompts within 5 minutes). This activity may indicate an adversary attempting to bypass MFA through 'MFA fatigue' attacks, where repeated authentication requests are sent to the user in hopes they will eventually approve one, leading to unauthorized access to the AWS environment.
This analytic identifies a successful authentication event against an Azure AD tenant using PowerShell cmdlets. This detection leverages Azure AD SignInLogs to identify successful logins where the appDisplayName is "Microsoft Azure PowerShell." This activity is significant because it is uncommon for regular, non-administrative users to authenticate using PowerShell, and it may indicate enumeration and discovery techniques by an attacker. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow attackers to perform extensive reconnaissance, potentially leading to privilege escalation or further exploitation within the Azure environment.
This analytic detects previously unseen processes within the Kubernetes environment on master or worker nodes. It leverages process metrics collected via an OTEL collector and hostmetrics receiver, with data pulled from Splunk Observability Cloud. The detection compares processes observed in the last hour against those seen in the previous 30 days. Identifying new processes is crucial as they may indicate unauthorized activity or attempts to compromise the node. If confirmed malicious, these processes could lead to data exfiltration, privilege escalation, denial-of-service attacks, or the introduction of malware, posing significant risks to the Kubernetes cluster.
The following analytic identifies unsuccessful login attempts to the AWS Management Console using a specific user identity. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs to detect failed authentication events associated with the AWS ConsoleLogin action. This activity is significant for a SOC because repeated failed login attempts may indicate a brute force attack or unauthorized access attempts. If confirmed malicious, an attacker could potentially gain access to AWS account services and resources, leading to data breaches, resource manipulation, or further exploitation within the AWS environment.
This analytic identifies an unusual number of failed authentication attempts to the AWS Console originating from a single source IP address, targeting multiple valid user accounts. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs and statistical analysis (3-sigma rule) to detect anomalies in failed login attempts. This behavior is indicative of a password spraying attack, where an adversary attempts to gain initial access or elevate privileges by trying a single password against many accounts. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or further compromise of the AWS environment.
The following analytic detects an attempt to disable multi-factor authentication (MFA) for a Google Cloud Platform (GCP) user. It leverages Google Workspace Admin log events, specifically the UNENROLL_USER_FROM_STRONG_AUTH command. This activity is significant because disabling MFA can allow an adversary to maintain persistence within the environment using a compromised account without raising suspicion. If confirmed malicious, this action could enable attackers to bypass additional security layers, potentially leading to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or further exploitation of the compromised account.
The following analytic identifies a spike in failed authentication attempts within an Office 365 environment, indicative of a potential distributed password spraying attack. It leverages UserLoginFailed events from O365 Management Activity logs, focusing on ErrorNumber 50126. This detection is significant as it highlights attempts to bypass security controls using multiple IP addresses and user agents. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, privilege escalation, and lateral movement within the organization. Early detection is crucial to prevent account takeovers and mitigate subsequent threats.
The analytic identifies AWS console login events by users from a new city within the last hour. It leverages AWS CloudTrail events and compares them against a lookup file of previously seen user locations. This activity is significant for a SOC as it may indicate unauthorized access or credential compromise, especially if the login originates from an unusual location. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access to AWS resources, data exfiltration, or further exploitation within the cloud environment.
The following analytic detects the presence of punycode within x509 certificates using Zeek x509 logs. It identifies punycode in the subject alternative name email and other fields by searching for the "xn--" prefix. This activity is significant as punycode can be used in phishing attacks or to bypass domain filters, posing a security risk. If confirmed malicious, attackers could use these certificates to impersonate legitimate domains, potentially leading to unauthorized access or data breaches.
The analytic detects a single source IP failing to authenticate with 30 unique valid users within 5 minutes in Azure Active Directory. It leverages Azure AD SignInLogs with error code 50126, indicating invalid passwords. This behavior is significant as it may indicate a Password Spraying attack, where an adversary attempts to gain initial access or elevate privileges by trying common passwords across many accounts. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or privilege escalation within the Azure AD environment.
The following analytic identifies instances where more than 10 unique user accounts fail to authenticate from a single IP address within a 5-minute window. This detection leverages O365 audit logs, specifically Azure Active Directory login failures (AzureActiveDirectoryStsLogon). Such activity is significant as it may indicate brute-force attacks or password spraying attempts. If confirmed malicious, this behavior suggests an external entity is attempting to breach security by targeting multiple accounts, potentially leading to unauthorized access. Immediate action is required to block or monitor the suspicious IP and notify affected users to enhance their security measures.
The following analytic detects emails in Gsuite containing links to known abuse web services such as Pastebin, Telegram, and Discord. It leverages Gsuite Gmail logs to identify emails with these specific domains in their links. This activity is significant because these services are commonly used by attackers to deliver malicious payloads. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to the delivery of malware, phishing attacks, or other harmful activities, potentially compromising sensitive information or systems within the organization.
The following analytic detects CrowdStrike alerts for Medium Identity Risk Severity with a risk score of 55% or higher. These alerts indicate significant vulnerabilities in user identities, such as suspicious behavior or compromised credentials. Promptly investigating and addressing these alerts is crucial to prevent potential security breaches and ensure the integrity and protection of sensitive information and systems.
The analytic detects an AWS account successfully authenticating from multiple unique IP addresses within a 5-minute window. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs, specifically monitoring `ConsoleLogin` events and counting distinct source IPs. This behavior is significant as it may indicate compromised credentials, potentially from a phishing attack, being used concurrently by an adversary and a legitimate user. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow unauthorized access to corporate resources, leading to data breaches or further exploitation within the AWS environment.
