2 rules 6 TTPsDetects a sudden increase in security alerts generated by AWS Security Hub related to a specific EC2 instance, potentially indicating active compromise or misconfiguration.
Splunk OpenTelemetry Java Agent RMI Deserialization Vulnerability
2 rules 1 TTPA remote code execution vulnerability exists in splunk-otel-javaagent versions prior to 2.26.1 due to unsafe deserialization in RMI instrumentation, potentially allowing attackers with network access to execute arbitrary code on affected systems.
Startup or Run Key Registry Modification
3 rules 2 TTPsAttackers modify registry run keys or startup keys to achieve persistence by referencing a program that executes when a user logs in or the system boots.
Successful AWS IAM Group Deletion Detection
2 rules 1 TTPSuccessful deletion of an AWS IAM group, while not inherently malicious, can indicate insider threat activity, account compromise, or attempts to remove audit trails, and should be monitored.
