Type Name Severity Module Data source / event ATT&CK
Analytics A user accessed multiple unusual resources via SSO A user accessed multiple resources via SSO that are unusual for this user. This may be indicative of a compromised account. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection AzureAD, Azure SignIn Log, Idira, Duo, Okta, OneLogin, PingOne Discovery, Initial Access
Analytics A user observed and reported unusual activity in Okta A user observed and reported unusual activity in Okta. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Okta Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Abnormal Allocation of compute resources in multiple regions An identity allocated an unusual compute resource pool, suspected as mining activity. Informational Cortex Cloud AWS Audit Log, Gcp Audit Log Impact, Initial Access
Analytics Account probing A user failed to log in to multiple hosts it never accessed before in a short amount of time. This may indicate the account is compromised and an attacker is probing for a host it can access with those credentials. Low Identity Analytics XDR Agent Initial Access, Credential Access
Analytics Allocation of multiple cloud compute resources An identity allocated multiple compute resources. Informational Cortex Cloud AWS Audit Log, Azure Audit Log, Gcp Audit Log Impact, Initial Access
Analytics An unusual process in ingress-nginx has accessed a service-account token file An unusual process in ingress-nginx has read a service-account token. High Cortex Cloud XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) Initial Access, Credential Access
Analytics Cloud IMDS access followed by remote token usage A request was made to the cloud Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) followed by a remote usage of EC2 role token. Medium Cortex Cloud AWS Audit Log, XDR Agent Initial Access, Credential Access
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 External user call via Microsoft Teams An external user called a user in the organization via Microsoft Teams. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Office 365 Audit Initial Access
Analytics External user created a Microsoft Teams conversation with suspicious operations An external user created a Microsoft Teams conversation with users in the organization with additional suspicious operations. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Office 365 Audit Initial Access
Analytics External user started a Microsoft Teams conversation An external user started a Microsoft Teams conversation with users in the organization. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Office 365 Audit Initial Access
Analytics Impossible travel by a cloud identity Cloud identity activity detected from distant geographic regions within an short time window. This suggests unauthorized use of credentials, possibly indicating a compromised account. Informational Cortex Cloud AWS Audit Log, Azure Audit Log, Gcp Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Intense SSO failures An abnormally high amount of SSO authentication attempts were seen within a short period of time. This could be the outcome of a brute-force login attempt. Informational Identity Analytics AzureAD, Azure SignIn Log, Idira, Duo, Okta, OneLogin, PingOne Credential Access, Initial Access
Analytics Multiple failed logins from a single IP Multiple failed logins were observed in a short period of time from a single external IP. The IP is not a known identity provider. Informational Cortex Cloud AWS Audit Log, Azure Audit Log, Gcp Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Multiple risk indicators for a cloud identity Multiple risk indicators detected for a cloud identity, combining unusual activity with activity from unusual geolocation or high-risk IP. High Cortex Cloud AWS Audit Log, Azure Audit Log, Gcp Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Multiple Suspicious FTP Login Attempts Multiple suspicious FTP sessions were detected, which may indicate a brute-force attempt. Low Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs Initial Access, Credential Access
Analytics New Shared User Account A user account has been seen active on multiple hosts. Shared accounts are often considered 'bad practice' and may present multiple security risks to the organization. Low Identity Analytics XDR Agent Initial Access
Analytics Numerous emails sent by a single sender to multiple internal recipients Numerous emails were sent to multiple internal recipients. This may indicate spam or any other malicious attempt. Informational Email Security Microsoft 365 Emails Initial Access
Analytics Okta account reset password attempt A user used a weak factor to reset their Okta password. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Okta Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Okta account unlock Okta user account was unlocked. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Okta Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Okta device assignment A device was assigned as an Okta MFA device to a user. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Okta Audit Log Initial Access, Persistence
Analytics Okta Reported Threat Detected Okta Threat Insight Reported Threat Detected. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection Okta Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Possible ConsentFix - OAuth Token Theft Detected Detection of potential OAuth token theft via a forced 'localhost' redirect and first-party app abuse. This indicates an attacker has likely bypassed MFA to hijack a user's cloud session. Informational Identity Threat Detection (ITDR), SaaS Threat Detection AzureAD Initial Access, Credential Access, Execution
Analytics Possible Impossible Travel Pattern - SSO A user logged in from several countries in a short period, including at least one location that is rare for the user or organization. This suspicious activity may be a sign of credential theft. Informational Identity Analytics AzureAD, Azure SignIn Log, Idira, Duo, Okta, OneLogin, PingOne Initial Access, Resource Development
Analytics Possible multistage attack in Microsoft Teams Possible multistage attack in Microsoft Teams. Low Identity Threat Detection (ITDR) Office 365 Audit Initial Access
Analytics Possible phishing attack via Microsoft Teams An external tenant is possibly attempting a phishing attack via Microsoft Teams. Low Identity Threat Detection (ITDR) AzureAD Audit Log, Microsoft Graph Logs, Office 365 Audit, Okta, Palo Alto Networks Global Protect, Third-Party VPNs, XDR Agent, XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) Initial Access
Analytics Potential Phishing has been detected This email contains multiple indicators consistent with a phishing attack. The message likely attempts to steal credentials, distribute malware, or trick recipients into performing actions that compromise security through deceptive content or suspicious technical characteristics. Medium Email Security Box Audit Log, DropBox, Google Workspace Audit Logs, Microsoft 365 Emails, Office 365 Audit, Okta Audit Log Initial Access
Analytics Suspicious sender exhibiting automated sending patterns Multiple messages from a single sender were observed over a short period, all having the same subject and differing body content. This repetitive pattern may indicate automated or scripted behavior. Informational Email Security Microsoft 365 Emails Initial Access
Analytics Suspicious sending domain with sender address randomization Multiple messages from a single sender domain were observed over a short period, each using a unique sender address. This per-message sender randomization is uncommon for legitimate senders and suggests automated behavior. Informational Email Security Microsoft 365 Emails Initial Access
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
