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 |
|---|---|---|
| AWS:CloudTrail | AttachUserPolicy, CreatePolicyVersion, PutRolePolicy | DC0010 User Account Modification |
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 |
|---|---|
RoleScope | IAM Role type or privilege level assigned (e.g., Admin, Billing, Viewer) |
UserContext | User, service account, or external federated identity context performing the action |
