Log sources and channels
Exactly as MITRE states them in x_mitre_log_source_references. Where a channel is vague, it is vague in the source; kevmap does not tidy it.
| Log source | Channel | Data component |
|---|---|---|
| macos:unifiedlog | command includes dscl . delete or sysadminctl --deleteUser | DC0064 Command Execution |
| macos:unifiedlog | successful sudo or authentication for account not normally associated with admin actions | DC0002 User Account Authentication |
Mutable elements

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
CommandLinePattern | Allow variation in dscl/sysadminctl command structure |
AnomalousUserFlag | Detect new or rarely seen users performing user removal |
