The analytic detects when a user deletes a repository in GitHub Enterprise. The detection monitors GitHub Enterprise audit logs for repository deletion events, which could indicate unauthorized removal of critical source code and project resources. For a SOC, identifying repository deletions is crucial as it may signal account compromise, insider threats, or malicious attempts to destroy intellectual property and disrupt development operations. The impact could be severe, potentially resulting in permanent loss of source code, documentation, project history, and other critical assets if proper backups are not maintained. Repository deletion could halt development workflows, cause significant business disruption, and require substantial effort to restore from backups if available. Additionally, unauthorized repository removal could be part of a larger attack campaign aimed at destroying or compromising enterprise assets.
This analytic identifies when a self-hosted runner is created in GitHub Enterprise. The detection monitors GitHub Enterprise audit logs for actions related to creating new self-hosted runners at the organization or enterprise level. This behavior warrants monitoring because self-hosted runners execute workflow jobs on customer-controlled infrastructure, which could be exploited by attackers to execute malicious code, access sensitive data, or pivot to other systems. While self-hosted runners are a legitimate feature, their creation should be carefully controlled as compromised runners pose significant security risks. The impact includes potential remote code execution, data exfiltration, and lateral movement within the environment if a runner is compromised. SOC teams should investigate unexpected runner creation events to verify they are authorized and properly secured, especially if created by unfamiliar users or in unusual contexts.
The following analytic detects multiple Okta accounts being locked out within a short period. It uses the user.account.lock event from Okta logs, aggregated over a 5-minute window, to identify this behavior. This activity is significant as it may indicate a brute force or password spraying attack, where an adversary attempts to guess passwords, leading to account lockouts. If confirmed malicious, this could result in potential account takeovers or unauthorized access to sensitive Okta accounts, posing a significant security risk.
Detects a spike in undeliverable emails, this can be an early indication of a targeted phishing campaign or a compromised user account.
The following analytic detects outbound emails with attachments sent from an internal email domain to an external domain. It leverages Gsuite Gmail logs, parsing the source and destination email domains, and flags emails with fewer than 20 outbound instances. This activity is significant as it may indicate potential data exfiltration or insider threats. If confirmed malicious, an attacker could use this method to exfiltrate sensitive information, leading to data breaches and compliance violations.
The analytic detects patterns of successful and failed Okta MFA push attempts to identify potential MFA exhaustion attacks. It leverages Okta event logs, specifically focusing on push verification events, and uses statistical evaluations to determine suspicious activity. This activity is significant as it may indicate an attacker attempting to bypass MFA by overwhelming the user with push notifications. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, compromising the security of the affected accounts and potentially the entire environment.
This analytic identifies multiple failed multi-factor authentication (MFA) requests for a single user within an Okta tenant. It triggers when more than 10 MFA attempts fail within 5 minutes, using Okta event logs to detect this pattern. This activity is significant as it may indicate an adversary attempting to bypass MFA by bombarding the user with repeated authentication requests, a technique used by threat actors like Lapsus and APT29. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, potentially compromising sensitive information and systems.
The following analytic detects multiple failed multi-factor authentication (MFA) requests for a single user within a Google Cloud Platform (GCP) tenant. It triggers when 10 or more MFA prompts fail within a 5-minute window, using Google Workspace login failure events. This behavior is significant as it may indicate an adversary attempting to bypass MFA by bombarding the user with repeated authentication requests. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, allowing attackers to compromise accounts and potentially escalate privileges within the GCP environment.
The following analytic detects the registration of a new Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) method for a PingID (PingOne) account. It leverages JSON logs from PingID, specifically looking for successful device pairing events. This activity is significant as adversaries who gain unauthorized access to a user account may register a new MFA method to maintain persistence. If confirmed malicious, this could allow attackers to bypass existing security measures, maintain long-term access, and potentially escalate their privileges within the compromised environment.
The analytic detects when a user removes an organization from GitHub Enterprise. The detection monitors GitHub Enterprise audit logs for organization deletion events, which could indicate unauthorized removal of critical business resources. For a SOC, identifying organization removals is crucial as it may signal account compromise, insider threats, or malicious attempts to disrupt business operations by deleting entire organizational structures. The impact could be severe, potentially resulting in loss of source code, repositories, team structures, access controls, and other critical organizational assets. This disruption could halt development workflows, cause data loss, and require significant effort to restore from backups if available. Additionally, unauthorized organization removal could be part of a larger attack campaign aimed at destroying or compromising enterprise assets.
The analytic identifies discrepancies between the source and response events for Okta Verify Push requests, indicating potential suspicious behavior. It leverages Okta System Log events, specifically `system.push.send_factor_verify_push` and `user.authentication.auth_via_mfa` with the factor "OKTA_VERIFY_PUSH." The detection groups events by SessionID, calculates the ratio of successful sign-ins to push requests, and checks for session roaming and new device/IP usage. This activity is significant as it may indicate push spam or unauthorized access attempts. If confirmed malicious, attackers could bypass MFA, leading to unauthorized access to sensitive systems.
The following analytic identifies attempts by users to access Okta applications that have not been assigned to them. It leverages Okta Identity Management logs, specifically focusing on failed access attempts to unassigned applications. This activity is significant for a SOC as it may indicate potential unauthorized access attempts, which could lead to exposure of sensitive information or disruption of services. If confirmed malicious, such activity could result in data breaches, non-compliance with data protection laws, and overall compromise of the IT environment.
The analytic detects the disablement of security steps in a CircleCI pipeline. This activity is significant because disabling security steps can introduce vulnerabilities, unauthorized changes, or malicious code into the pipeline. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to potential attacks, data breaches, or compromised infrastructure. The rule leverages CircleCI logs, using field renaming, joining, and statistical analysis to identify instances where mandatory security steps are not executed. Investigation should focus on reviewing job names, commit details, and user information associated with the disablement, and examining any relevant artifacts and concurrent processes.
The following analytic identifies instances where more than 10 unique user accounts have failed to authenticate from a single IP address within a 5-minute window in an Okta tenant. This detection uses OktaIm2 logs ingested via the Splunk Add-on for Okta Identity Cloud. 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 compromise multiple user accounts, potentially leading to unauthorized access to organizational resources and data breaches.
The following analytic identifies discrepancies between the IP address of an authentication event and the IP address of the verification response event, focusing on differences in the originating countries. It leverages JSON logs from PingID, comparing the 'auth_Country' and 'verify_Country' fields. This activity is significant as it may indicate suspicious sign-in behavior, such as account compromise or unauthorized access attempts. If confirmed malicious, this could allow attackers to bypass authentication mechanisms, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive systems and data.
The following analytic detects when two-factor authentication (2FA) requirements are disabled in GitHub Enterprise. The detection monitors GitHub Enterprise audit logs for 2FA requirement changes by tracking actor details, organization information, and associated metadata. For a SOC, identifying disabled 2FA requirements is critical as it could indicate attempts to weaken account security controls. Two-factor authentication is a fundamental security control that helps prevent unauthorized access even if passwords are compromised. Disabling 2FA requirements could allow attackers to more easily compromise accounts through password-based attacks. The impact of disabled 2FA includes increased risk of account takeover, potential access to sensitive code and intellectual property, and compromise of the software supply chain. This activity could be part of a larger attack chain where an adversary first disables security controls before attempting broader account compromises.
This analytic detects suspicious attachment file extensions in GSuite emails, potentially indicating a spear-phishing attack. It leverages GSuite Gmail logs to identify emails with attachments having file extensions commonly associated with malware, such as .exe, .bat, and .js. This activity is significant as these file types are often used to deliver malicious payloads, posing a risk of compromising targeted machines. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized code execution, data breaches, or further network infiltration.
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 analytic identifies failed user authentication attempts in Okta where FastPass explicitly declined a phishing attempt. This indicates that users are being targeted by real-time phishing proxies attempting to capture credentials. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized account access and further compromise.
The analytic identifies multiple failed multi-factor authentication (MFA) requests for a single user within a PingID environment. It triggers when 10 or more MFA prompts fail within 10 minutes, using JSON logs from PingID. This activity is significant as it may indicate an adversary attempting to bypass MFA by bombarding the user with repeated authentication requests. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, as the user might eventually accept the fraudulent request, compromising the security of the account and potentially the entire network.
This analytic identifies failed authentication attempts during the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) challenge in an Okta tenant. It specifically looks for events where the authentication signature is `user.authentication.auth_via_mfa` and the action is `failure`. This activity is significant as it may indicate an adversary attempting to authenticate with compromised credentials on an account with MFA enabled, potentially suggesting an ongoing attempt to bypass MFA protections and gain unauthorized access.
