Detects when a user account that has exhibited anomalous or risky sign-in behavior subsequently grants mailbox delegation, full-access, or Send-As permissions to another user (who is not the mailbox owner). This activity is indicative of a compromised account being used to establish persistence or facilitate email exfiltration and spoofing by expanding access to sensitive mailboxes.
This rule detects anomalous Privileged Identity Management (PIM) or Just-in-Time (JIT) role activation events. It identifies when a user activates a privileged role following suspicious activity such as a risky sign-in, during unusual (off-hours) time windows, or from an unfamiliar source IP address, potentially indicating session hijacking or credential abuse.
Detects sign-in events to high-privileged cloud management consoles (e.g., Azure Portal, Microsoft Entra, Intune, Okta, AWS, GCP) originating from sessions with elevated risk or anomalous characteristics. The detection monitors for factors such as the use of anonymized IP addresses, unmanaged devices, sessions marked as 'atRisk' by identity providers, or non-interactive service-based access to management APIs that deviate from standard administrative workflow patterns.
Detects 'Add member to role' operations in Entra ID where high-privileged directory roles are assigned to a user or service principal. This pattern is often a critical indicator of privilege escalation in account compromise scenarios where an attacker attempts to elevate their own or a secondary account's permissions within the tenant.
Detects the addition of new client secrets or certificates to existing applications or service principals in Azure AD. This activity is a common method for adversaries to establish persistence in a cloud environment by ensuring they maintain MFA-exempt application-level access even if compromised user accounts or session cookies expire.
Detects modifications to AWS CloudTrail logging configurations, specifically changes to trails or subscription filters that could be used to suppress, redirect, or disrupt the collection of audit logs, potentially masking malicious activity.
Detects the creation of an AWS Lambda function that is assigned an excessively privileged execution role (e.g., AdministratorAccess). Attackers often leverage this technique to establish persistence or facilitate privilege escalation by creating backdoored functions that run with broad administrative permissions.
Detects the modification or attachment of IAM policies to users or roles that contain wildcard 'Allow' permissions for all actions and resources. This behavior is indicative of privilege escalation where an identity is granted full administrative control over the AWS account.
This rule detects the initialization of an AWS CloudShell environment or session where Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) was not explicitly recorded in the event data. Unauthorized access to CloudShell can provide an adversary with a command-line interface to interact with AWS APIs, potentially facilitating further malicious activities.
Detects potential privilege escalation where an identity with iam:PassRole permissions deploys or updates compute resources (CloudFormation, EC2, or Lambda) to assume a more privileged IAM role than the user currently holds.
Detects the use of sts:AssumeRole or sts:GetFederationToken to request temporary security credentials in a different AWS account than the one initiating the request. This can indicate cross-account privilege escalation or lateral movement using identity federation or assumed roles.
Detects modifications to AWS S3 bucket Access Control Lists (ACLs) using the 'PutBucketAcl' API call that grant public read or write permissions. This could indicate an attempt to make sensitive data stored in S3 publicly accessible, potentially leading to data exfiltration.
Detects potential privilege escalation where an identity with iam:PassRole permissions deploys or updates compute resources (CloudFormation, EC2, or Lambda) to assume a more privileged IAM role than the user currently holds.
Detects the use of sts:AssumeRole or sts:GetFederationToken to request temporary security credentials in a different AWS account than the one initiating the request. This can indicate cross-account privilege escalation or lateral movement using identity federation or assumed roles.
Detects modifications to AWS S3 bucket Access Control Lists (ACLs) using the 'PutBucketAcl' API call that grant public read or write permissions. This could indicate an attempt to make sensitive data stored in S3 publicly accessible, potentially leading to data exfiltration.
Detects unauthorized attempts to stop, delete, modify, or change event selectors for AWS CloudTrail logs. This activity is indicative of an attacker attempting to disable audit logging to evade detection while performing further malicious actions in the environment.
Detects the use of AWS CloudShell to execute commands that download or install external files (e.g., using curl, wget, pip, or git), excluding those originating from known approved sources such as AWS-owned domains or standard package registries. This behavior may indicate an adversary attempting to download offensive tooling or backdoors into the cloud environment.
Detects 'PutBucketPolicy' API calls in AWS CloudTrail where the policy is modified to grant 'Allow' access to a wildcard ('*') or anonymous principal, without including restrictive conditional requirements such as VPC endpoints or organizational ID constraints. This behavior is a common precursor to data exfiltration from misconfigured S3 buckets.
Detects modifications to AWS EC2 snapshot or AMI attributes that grant cross-account permissions, including making them publicly accessible. This activity may indicate an attempt to exfiltrate volume data, such as credentials, configuration, or database contents, to an external AWS account.
Detects unauthorized attempts to disable, suppress, or modify security monitoring services in AWS, including GuardDuty, Security Hub, and AWS Config. This rule monitors for API calls that effectively reduce cloud visibility or detection capabilities, explicitly excluding actions performed by authorized security-engineering roles.
Detects the creation of recurring EventBridge rules or EventBridge Scheduler schedules configured with cron or rate expressions that trigger Lambda functions or SSM automation documents. This activity is a common method for cloud-native persistence, allowing for durable, recurring execution of malicious code that persists across credential rotations or resource deletions, provided the actor is not a recognized platform-engineering entity.
