This may indicate an attack on Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS), such as shadow credential exploitation or certificate-based authentication abuse. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Lateral Movement, Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics | Possible Privilege Escalation using Delegated MSA account An attacker might abuse dMSA account to escalate its privileges. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics BIOC | Potential DCSync by an unusual user Attackers may leverage the domain replication process to extract sensitive information (DCSync). | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Defense Evasion, Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Privileged certificate request via certificate template A privileged certificate was requested via certificate template. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics BIOC | Rare machine account creation A user was observed creating a machine account for the first time. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Sensitive account password reset attempt An attempt was made to reset a sensitive account's password. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Impact |
| Analytics | Single account excessively locked out A user has been locked out an unusually high number of times within a short timeframe. This could indicate an attempt to gain unauthorized access to the user's account. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Suspicious certificate template modification A certificate template was updated with a possible misconfiguration. This may indicate the exploitation of misconfigured certificate template access control (ESC4). | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Suspicious domain user account creation A user was observed creating a rare domain account. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Unusual user account enablement A user enabled an account. This user does not usually enable user accounts. | Informational | Identity Analytics | Windows Event Collector, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Persistence |
