Microsoft Teams Suspicious App Installation and Bot Abuse
Detects suspicious app installations, custom app creation, and bot additions within Microsoft Teams. This rule identifies activities such as sideloaded app installations, which can bypass standard vetting processes and serve as a persistence mechanism for attackers. It also flags custom app creation outside of typical development teams, which could indicate the deployment of command and control (C2) bots or data exfiltration applications. Additionally, the rule looks for the addition of bots to teams and suspicious keywords in app names that might suggest impersonation or malicious tooling.
