Type Name Severity Module Data source / event ATT&CK
Analytics BIOC A user accessed an uncommon AppID A user accessed an uncommon AppID that is rarely accessed by them or anyone else in the organization. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR) Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs, Palo Alto Networks Firewall threat Logs, Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent Exfiltration
Analytics BIOC Abnormal communication with a rare combination of TLS and HTTP User Agent Abnormal communication with a rare combination of TLS and HTTP User Agent to an external address. Low Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs, XDR Agent Command and Control, Exfiltration
Analytics BIOC Abnormal network communication with a rare combination of HTTP User Agent and HTTP Server Abnormal network communication with a rare combination of HTTP User Agent and HTTP Server to an external address. Informational Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs, XDR Agent Command and Control, Exfiltration
Analytics DNS Tunneling 10 KB or more were sent encoded in subdomain names during a 10-minute window. All subdomains queried were under a single suspicious domain. DNS tunneling encodes data in DNS queries and responses, allowing an attacker to bypass firewalls and proxies to reach his or her command and control server, even when HTTP/S traffic is blocked. The endpoint may be remotely controlled by an attacker, and/or an attacker may have exfiltrated data from it. This detector is not supported when networking events arrive solely from Cortex XDR Linux agents.

Analytics HTTP with suspicious characteristics Uncommon HTTP communication was performed by the host that might indicate its attempt to hide malicious activities. Low Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs, XDR Agent Command and Control, Exfiltration
Analytics Massive upload to a rare storage or mail domain A large amount of data was transferred to an external site that is used for mail or storage. This behavior may indicate data exfiltration.
