Detects incoming email messages where the Reply-To header address domain differs from the Sender From address domain. This technique is commonly used in phishing attacks to redirect victim replies to an attacker-controlled mailbox while maintaining a spoofed appearance in the original sender field.
Detects inbound emails that have been delivered to the user's Inbox or Junk folder despite failing SPF authentication checks. The detection logic triggers when these emails also lack a valid DMARC policy (none or not available), which prevents the mail server from enforcing rejection or quarantine, allowing spoofed or unauthenticated mail to bypass standard security filters.
This rule detects potential phishing attempts where the sender's display name is formatted as an email address and the sender's domain uses a capital 'I' character to mimic a well-known service provider (typosquatting/homoglyph attack), such as 'gmaiI.com'. It identifies discrepancies between the actual sender domain and the normalized domain name after character replacement.
Detects modifications to Microsoft Exchange mailbox folder permissions where the 'Default' user is granted 'Owner' access. This activity, which may involve operations such as 'UpdateFolder', 'Add-MailboxFolderPermission', or 'Set-MailboxFolderPermission', is a known server-side persistence mechanism. By granting 'Owner' rights to the 'Default' user, an attacker can bypass standard authentication and device-level controls to access mailbox contents, often following initial exploitation such as OWA XSS.
Joins password reset events to subsequent legacy-protocol (IMAP/POP/SMTP/ActiveSync) or non-interactive sign-ins for the same user, catching attackers who pivot to less-monitored protocols immediately after a vished self-service reset.
Detects tenant-level enablement of Microsoft Teams external/federated access or addition of an unfamiliar external domain shortly before a spike in inbound Teams calls to helpdesk/IT-support-tagged users — models CrowdStrike's 2026 Financial Services Threat Landscape Report on 'Mutant Spider,' the most active threat to financial services, whose primary technique is voice phishing over Microsoft Teams impersonating internal IT.
Detects a sequence of events where a single user receives an unusually high volume of inbound emails (potentially vishing-related), followed shortly thereafter by the user executing common remote assistance or remote access tools (e.g., Quick Assist, AnyDesk). This pattern is consistent with social engineering tactics used in IT-support impersonation scams to facilitate the delivery of malware such as Sauron Loader.
This rule detects scenarios where a user account modifies Conditional Access (CA) policies (specifically targeting user or group inclusion/exclusion settings) within one hour of that same user account modifying authentication method policies. This pattern is potentially indicative of an adversary weakening security controls by adjusting authentication requirements and subsequently tampering with CA policies to maintain persistence or bypass MFA.
Single-source Sigma proxy for the authentication-persistence stage of the multi-stage device-code-phishing-to-Graph-collection chain (see the companion KQL correlation rule "Passkey Persistence: Device-Code Phishing to MFA Takeover and Graph Collection" for the full, threshold-gated, cross-table detection). Sigma has no join, temporal-windowing, or aggregation support, so this rule fires on the authentication-persistence event alone and does NOT enforce the device-code sign-in precursor or the subsequent Graph-activity burst - both required by the full correlation. Scoped to the two highest-signal operations only (new security-info registration, and any admin-initiated registration on another user's account) to cut noise from routine self-service profile edits.

Detects the multi-stage Microsoft cloud identity compromise chain reported by Microsoft Security Research (September 2026): a victim completes a successful Entra ID device-code sign-in (often induced by passkey-themed device-code phishing), the same identity's authentication/security info is registered or changed (MFA/passkey persistence) within 60 minutes (deduplicated to the earliest such event per sign-in), followed within 120 minutes by a burst of at least 25 successful, delegated-context Microsoft Graph API calls (Scopes claim populated, i.e. user-delegated permissions rather than pure application/client-credential access) spanning at least 3 distinct resource paths, exhibiting reconnaissance (>=5 requests against /users, /groups, /directoryRoles, /roleManagement, /applications, /servicePrincipals, /organization) and/or collection (>=10 requests against /messages, /mailFolders, /attachments, /drive, /drives, /sites, /lists, /search) patterns. Restricting to delegated (Scopes-bearing) Graph calls and requiring resource-path breadth removes the two largest false-positive sources: service-principal/application-only automation jobs (Roles-only tokens) and single-endpoint polling tools. Pure behavioral correlation across SigninLogs, AuditLogs, and MicrosoftGraphActivityLogs - no static IOCs. Flags whether Graph activity originated from an IP different from the original device-code sign-in IP as a strong pivot/session-reuse indicator.
Detects instances where a user account registers a new Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) method (such as TOTP or Authenticator app) shortly (within 30 minutes) after a high-risk or potentially anomalous sign-in event. This pattern is commonly associated with adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) phishing attacks where an attacker captures an authenticated session and uses it to enroll a secondary, attacker-controlled MFA device for persistent account access.
Detects rapid, automated-style creation of an application, associated service principal, and delegated permission grants within a 60-second window. This behavior is indicative of the TrustSink technique or similar automated adversary infrastructure setup in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), where an attacker establishes persistence or elevated access through newly created apps.
This rule detects email-based phishing campaigns impersonating voicemail notifications ('New VM Received') that utilize Mailchimp click tracking to redirect recipients to landing pages hosted on the .sibpages.com domain, often associated with Brevo/Convrrt services.
Detects the creation of suspicious O365 inbox rules designed to hide (via mark-as-read, move, or delete actions) or forward/redirect email messages containing keywords associated with financial transactions such as payment, wire, or invoice. This behavior is indicative of post-compromise activity, specifically targeted at invoice fraud or email thread hijacking.
This rule monitors inbound emails for sender domains or embedded URLs that contain strings related to popular AI service brands (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude). It flags these occurrences when the domain does not match the official, legitimate domains for those services, indicating potential phishing or brand impersonation attempts.
Detects anomalous activity where a successful device-code authentication is immediately followed by rapid multi-device registration or Intune enrollment. This pattern is consistent with GhostCode-style attacks involving Primary Refresh Token (PRT) theft and rogue device registration to bypass conditional access policies.
Detects phishing messages that deliberately mix writing systems/scripts/homoglyphs in the Subject line as ONE corroborating signal within a broader, multi-signal phishing pattern. Hardened against false positives: brand/product tokens (e.g. Microsoft, PayPal) are stripped before the Latin-script check so a lone brand mention in non-Latin correspondence doesn't count as mixed-script; the suspicious-URL signal requires a high-confidence credential/urgency term (not generic business vocabulary); sender risk requires the domain to be new to both the recipient and the organization; and at least three independent signal categories (not two) must corroborate the language-confusion signal before the rule fires.
Detects anomalous authentication patterns in Microsoft 365 logs characterized by rapid login attempts from a high number of distinct IP addresses and autonomous systems (ASNs) within a short timeframe. This behavior is indicative of Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) attacks involving session-token theft and replay, where the adversary uses rotating residential proxy infrastructure to bypass location-based conditional access policies.
Detects anomalous post-authentication reconnaissance activities against the Microsoft Graph API, specifically the enumeration of directory objects, roles, or service principals. The rule triggers when a user account performs multi-endpoint enumeration via the Graph API within 30 minutes of a successful authentication session initiated via a device code flow that was flagged with elevated risk signals. This behavior is consistent with post-compromise reconnaissance techniques such as 'EvilTokens', where an adversary attempts to map the environment after gaining access.
This rule identifies potential phishing attempts by correlating email delivery events with known suspicious sender addresses and URLs containing typosquatting domains impersonating legitimate organizations.
