This rule detects two suspicious activities within a user's mailbox: (1) An email flood, where a recipient receives more than 500 emails within a 5-minute window, potentially indicating an attempt to overwhelm or hide secondary emails; and (2) The creation or modification of inbox rules that include actions like deleting or moving messages, which is a common persistence and evasion technique used by attackers to hide C2 or phishing communications.

This pattern can be indicative of phishing campaigns attempting to deliver malware or gather information.

This rule detects suspicious activity within Microsoft Graph API where an account is querying mailbox contents for sensitive payroll and HR-related keywords. This pattern is often observed following an Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) session compromise, where threat actors (such as those associated with the Payroll Pirate campaign) leverage stolen session tokens to exfiltrate sensitive employee information by searching for specific financial and payroll keywords across multiple mailboxes.

This rule detects potential phishing attempts by identifying emails with subject lines and attachment names related to Income Tax or official tax filings. The detection logic correlates indicators such as specific tax-related subject phrases, common tax utility attachments, suspicious URLs (govtop.one), and sender spoofing (impersonating 'Government of India' without a valid .gov.in domain).

This rule detects anomalous or risky sign-in events for user accounts that have recently configured an active out-of-office (OOF) auto-reply. An attacker may leverage a user's known absence to gain access to their email or other corporate resources using compromised credentials, as the user is less likely to notice suspicious account activity while away.

Detects a multi-stage attack pattern involving a 'spam bomb' (high volume of inbound emails) followed by an external Microsoft Teams message and the subsequent execution of Windows Quick Assist (quickassist.exe or msra.exe) on the target endpoint. This behavior is highly indicative of a tech support scam or social engineering attack where an adversary floods a user's inbox to create urgency, contacts them via Teams, and convinces them to initiate a remote support session.

Detects spearphishing emails delivered through Google Workspace infrastructure that fail DMARC strict alignment check. Specifically, this monitors instances where the DKIM signing domain is a gappssmtp.com subdomain that fails alignment with the envelope sender domain, while concurrently carrying a PDF attachment, consistent with known phishing campaign patterns.

This rule detects potential email spoofing or relay abuse by identifying emails that claim to be from the 'gasparinutrition.com' domain but fail DMARC authentication, despite showing a DKIM pass status specifically associated with 'gappssmtp.com' subdomains. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to bypass email authentication mechanisms by leveraging legitimate third-party mail relay infrastructure to send spoofed messages.

Detects incoming emails purportedly from a specific domain ('gasparinutrition.com') that exhibit signs of spoofing or malicious activity. The rule looks for DMARC failures, DKIM misalignment, and presence of specific document attachments or subject lines (e.g., 'Distribution Settlement Agreement') that mimic business correspondence often used in social engineering or phishing campaigns.
