Privilege Role Elevation Attempt from Non-PAW/SAW Device
This rule detects failed attempts to elevate privileges (PIM activation) in Azure Active Directory from devices that are not designated as Privileged Access Workstations (PAW) or Secure Access Workstations (SAW). It specifically looks for messages indicating 'Add member to role completed (PIM activation)' in the sign-in logs, combined with conditions that identify non-compliant devices, unapproved IP addresses, unapproved countries, or unapproved device information. The rule is designed to flag suspicious privilege elevation attempts that originate from unauthorized or untrusted environments, which could indicate a compromised account or an attempt to bypass security controls.
