The analytic detects the creation of Kubernetes pods in the default, kube-system, or kube-public namespaces. It leverages Kubernetes audit logs to identify pod creation events within these specific namespaces. This activity is significant for a SOC as it may indicate an attacker attempting to hide their presence or evade defenses. Unauthorized pod creation in these namespaces can suggest a successful cluster breach, potentially leading to privilege escalation, persistent access, or further malicious activities within the cluster.

The following analytic identifies the creation of containerized workloads using previously unseen images in a Kubernetes cluster. It leverages process metrics from an OTEL collector and Kubernetes cluster receiver, pulled from Splunk Observability Cloud. The detection compares container image names seen in the last hour with those from the previous 30 days. This activity is significant as unfamiliar container images may introduce vulnerabilities, malware, or misconfigurations, posing threats to the cluster's integrity. If confirmed malicious, compromised images can lead to data breaches, service disruptions, unauthorized access, and potential lateral movement within the cluster.

The following analytic detects the upload of new containers to AWS Elastic Container Service (ECR) outside of standard business hours through AWS CloudTrail events. It identifies this behavior by monitoring for `PutImage` events occurring before 8 AM or after 8 PM, as well as any uploads on weekends. This activity is significant for a SOC to investigate as it may indicate unauthorized access or malicious deployments, potentially leading to compromised services or data breaches. Identifying and addressing such uploads promptly can mitigate the risk of security incidents and their associated impacts.
