Detects unauthorized attempts to disable, delete, or weaken AWS CloudTrail logging and supporting infrastructure. This includes stopping log delivery, deleting trails, reducing scope via event selectors, removing VPC flow logs or CloudWatch log groups, and unauthorized administrative actions against the S3 bucket designated for CloudTrail logs.
Detects anomalous GCP IAM Service Account Credential API calls where a principal impersonates multiple distinct service accounts within a short time window. This behavior often indicates a credential delegation chain or a multi-stage privilege escalation attempt within a GCP environment.
Detects unauthorized attempts to disable, delete, or weaken AWS CloudTrail logging and supporting infrastructure. This includes stopping log delivery, deleting trails, reducing scope via event selectors, removing VPC flow logs or CloudWatch log groups, and unauthorized administrative actions against the S3 bucket designated for CloudTrail logs.
Detects the deployment of virtual machines with public IP addresses (in Azure) or compute instances with external IP addresses (in GCP) by a single principal within a 15-minute window. This behavior is indicative of a newly-privileged identity or an compromised account establishing externally-accessible infrastructure for further malicious activity.
Detects potential abuse of Cloud Shell to persist access in cloud environments. For GCP, it monitors the injection of SSH keys into instance or project metadata from a Cloud Shell session. For Azure, it detects a pattern involving Cloud Shell storage provisioning followed by a subsequent VM run-command or SSH public key update, indicating potential unauthorized management of virtual machines.
Detects the rapid, bulk launch of GPU-optimized or compute-intensive EC2 instances via API calls such as RunInstances, CreateFleet, or RequestSpotFleet within a short time window. This behavior is often indicative of cloud resource hijacking or cryptojacking, where compromised credentials are used to spin up expensive compute resources for illicit mining or intensive processing.
Detects potential privilege escalation in AWS where a user performs an iam:PassRole action to attach a highly privileged role (e.g., containing 'admin' or 'poweruser' in the name) to a newly created resource (Lambda, EC2 instance, or CloudFormation stack) within a short timeframe. This behavior is a known technique to gain elevated permissions by executing code within the context of a higher-privilege identity.
Detects modifications to AWS EBS or RDS snapshot attributes to grant access to unauthorized or external AWS accounts, or the copying of snapshots to unauthorized accounts, which are common techniques for data exfiltration from cloud environments.
Detects various administrative actions in AWS that result in the disabling, deletion, or suppression of security monitoring services and configurations, including CloudTrail, Security Hub, and AWS Config. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to evade detection by blinding security teams.
Detects anomalous or suspicious creation of AWS IAM access keys, particularly those targeting highly privileged accounts (e.g., 'root') or involving cross-user key generation by non-administrative entities. This behavior is indicative of potential account takeover, persistence establishment, or privilege escalation within the AWS environment.
Detects attempts to disable, degrade, or bypass cloud-native security monitoring services in GCP and Azure. This includes disabling GCP Security Command Center, creating broad mute configurations for security findings, downgrading Azure Defender for Cloud pricing tiers, or deleting Azure security automation workflows. These actions are common indicators of defense evasion during an incident.
Detects modifications to AWS S3 bucket permissions or public access block settings that result in publicly accessible buckets. The rule specifically monitors CloudTrail events such as PutBucketAcl, PutBucketPolicy, and PutPublicAccessBlock for configurations that permit AllUsers/AuthenticatedUsers access, overly permissive bucket policies with wildcard principals, or the deactivation of all four block-public-access settings.
Detects potential backdoored persistence in AWS Lambda functions. The rule monitors for two patterns: 1) A Lambda function creation followed by granting cross-account 'lambda:InvokeFunction' permissions to an untrusted or wildcard principal. 2) A privilege escalation event (such as attaching policies) followed by a 'lambda:UpdateFunctionCode' operation on the same function by the same principal, which may indicate an attempt to inject malicious code into a serverless function.
Detects instances where a long-dormant Entra ID (Azure AD) service principal is reactivated shortly after having a new credential added or a new app role assigned. This activity is a potential persistence technique where an attacker repurposes a legitimate, high-privileged, but unused service principal to blend in as legacy automation.
Detects instances where an administrative user grants 'AllPrincipals' OAuth consent to a multi-tenant application that is unverified or lacks a trusted publisher. This behavior is indicative of an attacker tricking a global admin into granting broad permissions (e.g., Mail.Read, Files.ReadWrite.All) to a malicious application, bypassing per-user consent restrictions.
Detects the addition of a new client secret or certificate to an existing Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) application or service principal. This behavior is often used by adversaries to establish persistence following the compromise of an existing identity with administrative permissions, allowing continued access even if the original compromised credentials are revoked.
Detects when a user is added as an owner to an Azure AD Application or Service Principal, specifically highlighting instances where the new owner does not currently hold a privileged directory role. This pattern is often used as a persistence mechanism to maintain long-term access to an environment without requiring high-level administrative credentials.
Detects the addition of secrets or certificates to service principals by identities that are not currently registered as owners of those applications, or modifications occurring outside of standard business hours. This behavior is often indicative of an adversary with compromised administrative privileges (e.g., Application Administrator) attempting to establish persistent, lateral access without alerting legitimate application owners.
Detects a potential Business Email Compromise (BEC) persistence chain where a user grants an OAuth application mail-read or mail-write permissions, followed by the creation of a malicious inbox rule designed to forward, move, or delete sensitive email threads. This combination enables persistent exfiltration and stealth, bypassing password resets as the OAuth token remains active.
This rule detects non-interactive sign-in events using AzureAD tokens from unmanaged devices. This pattern is indicative of potential session or refresh token hijacking, where an adversary replays a stolen session token from their own environment. While a single event is not definitive for impossible travel, it serves as a high-confidence seed for identifying compromised sessions when combined with other indicators.
Detects unauthorized or suspicious modifications to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) Conditional Access Policies. This includes deleting a policy, disabling an enabled policy, narrowing the scope of users or groups targeted by a policy, or removing MFA requirements from existing policies.
