Cortex XDR Correlation rule to detect /alert if a user logon to multiple endpoints at a time

L0 Member

Hi ,

 

Can anybody help to create a Cortex XDR Correlation rule using XQL to detect /alert if a user logon to multiple endpoints at a time

 

Thanks in advance.

Hello @Sree Rag R 

 

Thanks for reaching out on LiveCommunity!

I have a created a XQL query which you can use as reference to create your own correlation rule.

dataset = endpoints
| filter (user not in (null, """"""))
| comp count(endpoint_name) as NumOfComputer by user
| filter NumOfComputer > 1
| fields user , NumOfComputer

 

This query will list the users who have logged on more then one endpoints.

Hello @Sree Rag R ,

 

This the more kind SIEM or Identity Protection requirement. However, you can try below and see if this meets your requirement:

config timeframe between "10m" and "now"  //update this timeframe for the interval you are looking
|dataset = xdr_data
| filter event_type = EVENT_LOG AND action_evtlog_event_id = 4625 // Filtering by failed logon events`
| alter User_Name = arrayindex(regextract(action_evtlog_message,"Account For Which Logon Failed:\r\n.*\r\n.*?Account Name:.*?(\w.*?)\r\n"),0)
| comp count_distinct(agent_hostname ) as host_count by User_Name
| filter host_count >1

Hi Nsinghvirk,

 

Thanks for the revert. As u said this is listing the users who have logged on more then one endpoints. 

If u provide solution for displaying Endpoint name along with the result that would be more helpful.

In general, you will have an Investigation/Alert Query on the Correlation rule, that will have the events ungrouped and thus showcasing the Endpoint names.

 

So, write a similar query without the counters and select the desired fields, inside the Correlation rule which will have as a main/logic query one of those mentioned in the previous replies (two queries in total).
