Detects creation and deletion of an Azure SQL firewall rule by the same caller within a short window, which can provide temporary database access while reducing later evidence. This behavior is often indicative of an adversary attempting to gain temporary access to a database, perform actions, and then remove their tracks by deleting the firewall rule.

Detects suspicious activities within GitHub repository logs that indicate potential supply chain attacks, including the use of unauthorized workflow names, the creation of orphan snapshot branches, dependabot impersonation attempts, commit messages containing known campaign markers, exposure of internal secrets (HAS_GCR_TOKEN), and the push of suspicious files or configuration modifications.

Detects the execution of remote commands on cloud virtual machines (Azure RunCommand or AWS SSM SendCommand) during defined off-hours (18:00 to 06:00). This rule identifies potentially unauthorized administrative or management activity occurring outside of standard business hours across cloud environments.

Detects rapid failed local Windows account logon attempts consistent with Pony malware's built-in dictionary brute-force routine, which enumerates local accounts via NetUserEnum and cycles passwords via LogonUserA (advapi32). A high volume of type-2 interactive logon failures against multiple local accounts in a short window is the key behavioral signal.

This rule detects successful user sign-ins from anomalous IP addresses, indicative of an Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) reverse proxy attack. It correlates successful logins with the receipt of a phishing email containing specific subject keywords ('Code of Conduct') within a two-hour window, suggesting that the login was a direct result of the phishing lure.

This rule detects successful OAuth logins originating from IP addresses identified as residential proxies. This behavior can indicate an adversary attempting to bypass geo-restrictions or obscure their true location, potentially as part of a credential stuffing attack, account takeover, or to evade detection.

This rule monitors for administrative VMware operations (cloning, snapshotting, or process manipulation) performed on sensitive infrastructure servers (such as Domain Controllers, PKI, Vault, or ADFS) that occur outside of a designated maintenance window by non-authorized accounts. It leverages tools like vim-cmd, esxcli, or govc to detect potential unauthorized VM manipulation that could lead to data theft, snapshot-based credential extraction, or unauthorized system changes.

Detects user agents associated with Tycoon2FA phishing-as-a-service (PHaaS) campaigns, specifically targeting credential relay (axios/1.13.x) and device code phishing (node/undici) variants. The rule identifies sign-in attempts from unmanaged and non-compliant devices using these specific user agents during a device code flow authentication.

This rule detects suspicious activity on high blast radius accounts, specifically correlating failed authentication attempts, password resets, and successful logons outside business hours.

The rule prioritizes detection based on a password reset event to produce an informational severity alert, then looks for preceding failed authentications and subsequent out-of-hours logons to indicate a potential compromise by raising severity accordingly.

You will need to utilise the AlertSeverityOverride configuration, pointed at the AlertSeverity field, in your Sentinel rule metaconfig to use this detection effectively.

Hard requirement: Need UEBA enabled in your tenant to populate the BlastRadius field in your IdentityInfo table.

Change each stage to suit your log source for the behaviour mapped to this stage.

Add in other stages if needed to add more dynamic severity (e.g., Account has high blast radius AND is a GA AND was logged in to from outside of expected geolocation > Critical severity)

Detects SSH network connections initiated by common administrative service accounts 'vmanage-admin' or 'troot' using the ssh or sshd process. This pattern may indicate unauthorized use of these service accounts or anomalous remote access behavior.

This rule detects successful network logons (LogonType 3) using NTLM (NTLMv1 or NTLMv2) where the authentication results in an elevated token and the logon originates from a different workstation than the target computer. This combination of factors can indicate lateral movement attempts, especially when an adversary has obtained NTLM hashes (e.g., via Pass-the-Hash or NTLM relay attacks) and is attempting to authenticate to other systems on the network. The rule excludes machine accounts and anonymous logons, as well as loopback authentications, to reduce noise.

Detects a potential logging sink hijack in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) by identifying the deletion of a logging sink's destination bucket followed by the creation of a new bucket with the same name in a different project. This technique could allow an attacker to redirect logs to an attacker-controlled bucket, impairing defenses and potentially exfiltrating sensitive log data.

This rule detects logon events from Windows Admin Center (WAC) virtual accounts where the associated user principal name (UPN) belongs to an external or unknown tenant. This activity is a key indicator of compromise for CVE-2026-20965, where an attacker uses a forged token from an external tenant to gain unauthorized access.

Detects anomalous, high-volume npm package publication patterns from a single user account within a 5-minute window. This behavior is indicative of automated worm propagation or supply chain attacks using compromised developer tokens, specifically identified by high-frequency 'publish' events.

Detects a user who interacted with a code-of-conduct lure subsequently authenticating through an anonymous proxy or anonymisation service. This rule correlates URL click events or sign-in events with subjects related to 'code of conduct' or 'policy acknowledgement' and then checks if the subsequent authentication occurred via an anonymous proxy.

This rule detects successful OAuth logins originating from IP addresses identified as residential proxies. This behavior can indicate an adversary attempting to bypass geo-blocking or other IP-based restrictions, potentially using stolen credentials (Valid Accounts) or after a successful phishing campaign (Spearphishing Link) to gain initial access or maintain persistence.

Detects rapid failed local Windows account logon attempts consistent with Pony malware's built-in dictionary brute-force routine. The rule identifies a high volume of type-2 interactive logon failures against multiple local accounts in a short time window, indicative of brute-force activity using LogonUserA.

Detects a Google account completing an OAuth or MFA challenge and then generating a new session from a different client fingerprint (different source IP or user agent) within a 10-minute window. This behavior can indicate a session hijack or an adversary bypassing MFA.

Detects instances where a user successfully authenticates from a mobile device (Android or iPhone) that exhibits a geographic mismatch (geo_country vs registered_country), and subsequently performs a sensitive credential or MFA-related action (enrollment or reset) from a different device within one hour. This pattern is indicative of a potential session hijacking or credential compromise where an attacker attempts to establish persistence by enrolling their own MFA device.
