'Identifies an interrupted sign-in session from a country the user has not sign-in before in the last 7 days, where the password was correct. Although the session is interrupted by other controls such as multi factor authentication or conditional access policies, the user credentials should be reset due to logs indicating a correct password was observed during sign-in.'

Intent:
- Use MTP capability to look for insider threat potential risk indicators
- Indicators would then serve as the building block for insider threat risk modeling in subsequent tools
Definition of Insider Threat:
"The potential for an individual who has or had authorized access to an organization's assets to use their access, either maliciously or unintentionally, to act in a way that could negatively affect the organization."
This collection of queries describes the different indicators that could be used to model and look for patterns suggesting an increased risk of an individual becoming a potential insider threat.
Note: no single indicator should be used as a lone determinant of insider threat activity, but should be part of an overall program to understand the increased risk to your organization's critical assets. This in turn is used to feed an investigation by a formal insider threat program to look at the context associated with the whole person to understand the implication of a set of indicators.

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Ransomware continues to hit healthcare, critical services. There is also a related blog.
In April of 2020, security researchers observed multiple ransomware campaigns using the same set of techniques. The attackers would compromise a web-facing endpoint and employ tools such as Cobalt Strike to steal users' credentials.
Cobalt Strike is commercial software used to conduct simulated threat campaigns against a target; however, malicious actors also use Cobalt Strike in real attacks. The software has a large range of capabilities, including credential theft.
The following query identifies accounts that have logged on to compromised endpoints and have potentially had their credentials stolen.

'Detects when a privileged user account successfully authenticates from a location, device or ASN that another admin has not logged in from in the last 7 days.
Privileged accounts are a key target for threat actors, monitoring for logins from these accounts that deviate from normal activity can help identify compromised accounts.
Authentication attempts should be investigated to ensure the activity was legitimate and if there is other similar activity.
