Detectors
Every Cortex detection rule the toolbox knows about — analytics alerts, BIOCs and correlation rules — in one filterable set.
11 detectors match the current filters.
Download CSV| Type | Name | Severity | Module | Data source / event | ATT&CK |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Analytics BIOC | Access to kubelet credentials file A process accessed a kubelet credentials file. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Access to Kubernetes CA certificate file A process accessed a Kubernetes CA certificate file. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Access to sensitive host files from within a Kubernetes pod A process accessed sensitive host files inside a Kubernetes pod, indicating a potential container escape or privilege escalation attempt. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics BIOC | Kubernetes secret enumeration activity Kubectl secret enumeration command was executed. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Kubernetes secrets enumeration for the first time An identity listed Kubernetes secrets for the first time. | Informational | Cortex Cloud | AWS Audit Log, Azure Audit Log, Gcp Audit Log, Kubernetes Audit Logs | Credential Access |
| Analytics | Potential kubelet impersonation attempt A process accessed both the Kubelet credentials and the Kubernetes CA certificate, indicating an attempt to impersonate the node agent and communicate with the API server. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Retrieval of kubelet credentials A process retrieved kubelet credentials. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Suspicious Kubernetes pod token access A Kubernetes pod has accessed the access token of another pod. This could indicate potential unauthorized access or a security breach within the cluster. | Medium | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Unusual cloud Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) access A request to cloud Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) was made by an unusual process. This process does not usually access the Instance Metadata Service. An attacker may extract cloud compute tokens to gain access to a cloud environment. | Informational | Cortex Cloud | XDR Agent | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Unusual Kubernetes secret access Suspicious Kubernetes secret access. | Informational | Cortex Cloud | AWS Audit Log, Azure Audit Log, Gcp Audit Log, Kubernetes Audit Logs | Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Unusual Kubernetes service account file read An unusual process opened a Kubernetes service account file for the first time. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Credential Access |
