Detects authentication to the Barracuda load balancer management interface. Appliance
management accounts are often shared, rarely rotated and seldom covered by the
identity controls applied elsewhere, which makes them a durable route back in.

Onboarding: BARRACUDA-LOADBALANCER is ingested via Syslog (CEF) (Bloo extractor 859).
Integration guide: https://bloo.io/docs/hypercloud/syslog-connector

BQL (Bloo Query Language):

stream=authentication where sourcename='BARRACUDA-LOADBALANCER' and action='LOGIN'
| groupby user, srcip, authproto

Detects MFT authentication from a source address without prior history. Transfer
platforms are reached by a small, stable set of partners and internal systems, so
the population of legitimate source addresses is unusually predictable — which makes
a new one unusually meaningful.

Onboarding: GOANYWHERE-MFT is ingested via Syslog (Bloo extractor 850).
Integration guide: https://bloo.io/docs/hypercloud/syslog-connector

BQL (Bloo Query Language):

stream=authentication where sourcename='GOANYWHERE-MFT' and action='LOGIN'
| duration 24h
| groupby srcip, user, authproto

Detects a Slack role change conferring administrative rights. A workspace admin can
read private content, export conversation history, add applications and change
retention — so this is a meaningful privilege grant in a system that holds a great
deal of candid organisational information.

Onboarding: SLACK is ingested via Slack native connector (Bloo extractor 833).
Integration guide: https://bloo.io/docs/integrations/slack

BQL (Bloo Query Language):

stream=iam where sourcename='SLACK' and action='ROLE_ADDED'
| groupby user, targetuser, role, workspace

Detects a privileged session beginning with no preceding credential retrieval by the
same account. The expected sequence is checkout then session. A session without one
suggests the credential was obtained outside the vault — cached, shared, or stolen —
which defeats the control the vault exists to provide.

Correlate SESSION_STARTED in the audit stream against PASSWORD_RETRIEVED in the iam
stream for the same user within a preceding window.

Onboarding: PAM360 is ingested via Syslog (Bloo extractor 879).
Integration guide: https://bloo.io/docs/hypercloud/syslog-connector

BQL (Bloo Query Language):

stream=audit where sourcename='PAM360' and action='SESSION_STARTED'
| groupby user, targetuser, srcip, devicetype

Detects one endpoint authenticating under several distinct user identities in a short
period. A workstation normally carries one user at a time. Several identities from
one endpoint suggests credential testing, a shared or kiosk device being misused, or
an attacker working through harvested accounts from a single foothold.

Onboarding: CISCO-ISE is ingested via Syslog (KV) (Bloo extractor 196).
Integration guide: https://bloo.io/docs/hypercloud/syslog-connector

BQL (Bloo Query Language):

stream=authentication where sourcename='CISCO-ISE' and action='LOGIN'
| duration 1h
| groupby srcip
| select srcip, distinct_count(user)
| having distinct_count_col1 > 4

Detects a privileged password change shortly after failed authentication attempts
against the vault. An attacker who gains vault access frequently rotates the
credential to lock out the legitimate owner and secure their own hold on it.

The sequence matters more than either event alone: failures followed by a successful
change is the pattern, and a change on its own is routine.

Onboarding: CYBERARK is ingested via Syslog (CEF) (Bloo extractor 279).
Integration guide: https://bloo.io/docs/hypercloud/syslog-connector

BQL (Bloo Query Language):

stream=iam where sourcename='CYBERARK' and action='PASSWORD_CHANGED'
| groupby user, targetuser, srcip, reason

Detects successful Azure Active Directory (Entra ID) sign-ins using the device code flow where the originating device is neither registered nor trusted (managed or compliant), which may indicate suspicious authentication attempts or token abuse.

Detects external inbound FortiGate Fabric Management Protocol (FGFM) traffic on TCP port 541 followed by a FortiGateCloud administrative configuration download, backup, or running-config event on the same FortiGate device within a one-hour window, potentially indicating unauthorized configuration access or device compromise.

Builds a per-account baseline of the devices that each enabled service account has made a successful network logon to over the previous 30 days, then alerts when one makes a successful network logon to a device outside that baseline within the latest window.

Service accounts are identified from IdentityInfo using each account’s most recent recorded type and enabled status, and are matched to logon events by their on-premises SID, so local accounts or accounts in other domains that share the same name are not mistaken for them. Accounts with no logon history in the baseline period are still evaluated, so a dormant service account that suddenly begins making network logons will alert on every device it reaches.

Service accounts tend to touch a small, fixed set of hosts, so a per-entity first-seen check is a strong lateral movement signal with less noise than the same logic applied to users.

Each result is enriched with the number of times the destination device’s sensor reporting restarted during the alert window, along with the times of those restarts in UTC, as restarts close to the new logons often indicate maintenance activity such as patching, although they should prompt a check to confirm rather than closure of the alert.

The rule runs every 24 hours, as this is the only Defender custom detection frequency with a 30-day lookback, and the alert window covers the last 25 hours so that a slightly delayed run does not leave a gap.

The baseline and alert windows are separated by ingestion time rather than event time, so events that arrive late are still evaluated.

Detects potential Linux privilege escalation and persistence activities by monitoring for the creation of persistence scripts in post_boot.d, modifications to the sudoers.template file appending NOPASSWD, or system configuration rebuilds shortly after sudoers template changes.

Detects a sequence of events on a single device where a shell (/bin/sh, /bin/bash, etc.) is copied to a path involving /usr/bin/dbus-authd using cp or busybox, followed by changing ownership to root, and subsequently setting the SUID permission bit within a 10-minute window.

Detects creation of a scheduled task named "Windows Defender Advanced
Threat Protection Service" configured to run at system startup with SYSTEM privileges
and launch an executable named defender.exe. HoneyMyte (Mustang Panda) used this exact
schtasks command to establish boot persistence for the CoolClient backdoor sideloader,
masquerading the task and binary as a legitimate Windows Defender component.

Detects the loading of the 'truesight.sys' driver from non-standard or temporary locations. This activity is associated with a campaign where threat actors use a vulnerable version of this driver to terminate security products before deploying ransomware or RATs, a technique known as Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD).

Detects the default scheduled task activity of the hacktool Defendnot, which is used to disable Windows Defender Security.
It abuses Microsoft's undocumented WSC API to register itself as a fake antivirus product, allowing it to disable Windows Defender.
During installation, Defendnot creates a scheduled task named 'defendnot' with the argument '--from-autorun' for persistence.

Detects a successful device-code sign-in followed within 60 minutes by non-interactive replay from a different IP AND a persistence action (inbox rule, app consent, device add) from a non-original IP. Persistence is now mandatory (inner join) instead of optional, and the retired AADSignInEventsBeta table is replaced by EntraIdSignInEvents.
