Download CSV| Type | Name | Severity | Module | Data source / event | ATT&CK |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Analytics | Download pattern that resembles Peer to Peer traffic A possible P2P protocol was spotted from an internal host. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent | Command and Control, Initial Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Rare AppID usage to a rare destination Rare AppID with port usage to rare destination. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent, Third-Party Firewalls | Command and Control |
| Analytics BIOC | Rare process created an SSH session to an uncommon cloud resource A rare process created an SSH session to an uncommon cloud resource. | Low | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent, Third-Party Firewalls | Command and Control |
| Analytics BIOC | Rare process created an SSH session to an uncommon external host Rare process created an SSH session to an uncommon external host. | Low | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent, Third-Party Firewalls | Command and Control |
| Analytics BIOC | Recurring rare domain access to dynamic DNS domain The endpoint is periodically connecting to an external domain that it and its peers rarely use. Access to this domain has occurred repeatedly over multiple days. This connection pattern is consistent with malware connecting to its command and control server for updates and operating instructions. | Low | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent, Third-Party Firewalls | Command and Control |
| Analytics | Suspicious DNS traffic 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. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent | Command and Control, Exfiltration |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon SSH session was established An uncommon SSH session was established. | Low | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent, Third-Party Firewalls | Command and Control |
| Analytics | Upload pattern that resembles Peer to Peer traffic A possible P2P protocol was spotted from an internal host. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent | Command and Control, Initial Access |
