As described in previous guidance, Nobelium may re-purpose legitimate existing OAuth Applications in the environment to their own ends. However, malicious activity patterns may be discernable from legitimate ones.
The following query returns OAuth Applications that access mail both directly and via Graph, allowing review of whether such dual access methods follow expected use patterns.

This query helps you review all OAuth applications accessing user mail via Graph. It could return a significant number of results depending on how many applications are deployed in the environment.
One of the indicators of compromise for the Nobelium (formerly Solorigate) campaign was that unexpected service principals have been added to privileged roles. This query looks for service principals that have been added to any role.

Looks for users who had a risky sign in (based on Entra ID Identity Protection risk score) and then performed and ElevateAccess action. ElevateAccess operations can be used by Global Admins to obtain permissions over Azure resources.
'Detects a user's consent to an OAuth application being blocked due to it being too risky.
These events should be investigated to understand why the user attempted to consent to the applicaiton and what other applicaitons they may have consented to.

Detects changes and updates to the user risk and MFA registration policy.
Attackers can modified the policies to Bypass MFA, weaken security thresholds, facilitate further attacks, maintain persistence.

This query looks for Entra ID role adds identified by Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps. It will require an corresponding app connector in Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
'This hunting query looks for users who have run queries calling a watchlist template relating to sensitive data that have not previously been seen calling these watchlists.'
The analytic detects a spike in the number of API calls made to cloud infrastructure by a user. It leverages cloud infrastructure logs and compares the current API call volume against a baseline probability density function to identify anomalies. This activity is significant because an unusual increase in API calls can indicate potential misuse or compromise of cloud resources. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or disruption of cloud services, posing a significant risk to the organization's cloud environment.
The analytic detects cloud API calls executed by user roles that have not previously run these commands. It leverages the Change data model in Splunk to identify commands executed by users with the user_type of AssumedRole and a status of success. This activity is significant because new commands from different user roles can indicate potential malicious activity or unauthorized actions. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or other damaging outcomes by exploiting new or unmonitored commands within the cloud environment.
The analytic detects the creation of cloud compute instances using previously unseen image IDs. It leverages cloud infrastructure logs to identify new image IDs that have not been observed before. This activity is significant because it may indicate unauthorized or suspicious activity, such as the deployment of malicious payloads or unauthorized access to sensitive information. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to data breaches, unauthorized access, or further compromise of the cloud environment. Immediate investigation is required to determine the legitimacy of the instance creation and to mitigate potential threats.
This analytic detects AWS console login events by users who have not previously logged into the AWS console. It uses AWS CloudTrail events and compares them against a baseline of known users. A new user logging into the AWS console could indicate the creation of new accounts or potential unauthorized access, which could lead to unauthorized access to AWS resources, data exfiltration, or further exploitation within the cloud environment.
The following analytic detects a spike in the number of API calls made to cloud security groups by a user. It leverages data from the Change data model, focusing on successful firewall-related changes. This activity is significant because an abnormal increase in security group API calls can indicate potential malicious activity, such as unauthorized access or configuration changes. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to manipulate security group settings, potentially exposing sensitive resources or disrupting network security controls.
The following analytic identifies the registration of a new Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) method for an AWS account, as logged through Amazon Security Lake (ASL). It detects this activity by monitoring the `CreateVirtualMFADevice` API operation within ASL logs. This behavior is significant because adversaries who gain unauthorized access to an AWS account may register a new MFA method to maintain persistence. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow attackers to secure their access, making it harder to detect and remove their presence from the compromised environment.
The analytic identifies cloud instances being modified by users who have not previously modified them. This activity is significant because it can indicate unauthorized or suspicious changes by potentially compromised or malicious users. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, configuration changes, or potential disruption of cloud services, posing a significant risk to the organization's cloud infrastructure.
Detects attempts by an identity to enumerate its Kubernetes Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) permissions. This activity is often observed in the early stages of a breach as attackers try to understand their access within a compromised Kubernetes environment. This can be achieved by querying the Kubernetes API server's SelfSubjectRulesReview API, for example, using the "kubectl auth can-i --list" command.
This rule detects when an Azure Container Registry is either created or deleted. Monitoring these operations can help identify unauthorized infrastructure changes, potential resource manipulation, or attempts to cover tracks by removing evidence. An adversary might create a new container registry to host malicious images or delete an existing one to disrupt services or remove forensic artifacts.
Identifies when a Kubernetes account accesses sensitive objects such as ConfigMaps or Secrets within Azure Kubernetes Service. This rule specifically looks for write or delete operations on these objects, which could indicate unauthorized access or malicious activity.
This rule identifies when sensitive ClusterRoles or Roles are being modified, deleted, or when their permissions are being escalated or bound in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). These operations can indicate an attempt to gain elevated privileges or disrupt access within the Kubernetes cluster.
This rule detects suspicious activity following a successful login to the Azure AD PowerShell application. Specifically, it looks for a user performing multiple administrative actions within a short timeframe after logging in. These actions include adding or updating applications, adding delegated permission grants, or managing certificates and secrets for applications. This behavior is indicative of an attacker attempting to establish persistence or escalate privileges within an Entra ID environment after initial access.
Detects the modification or deletion of Kubernetes RoleBindings or ClusterRoleBindings within Azure Kubernetes Service. These actions can indicate an adversary attempting to escalate privileges, maintain persistence, or disrupt services by altering access control configurations.
