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 |
|---|---|---|
| m365:unified | Workload=AzureActiveDirectory OR Exchange AND (Operation=Cmdlet AND Parameters contains 'Password' AND (CmdletName='Get-*' OR CmdletName='Get-OrganizationConfig')) | DC0013 User Account Metadata |
Mutable elements
Parameters MITRE marks as environment-specific. These are the knobs you are expected to tune; they are why an analytic is not a rule.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
SaaSAdminGroup | Known admin groups or break-glass accounts. |
SessionAnomalyThreshold | Rate/volume of read operations per session considered anomalous. |
