Potential Buffer Overflow Attack Detected

Detects potential buffer overflow attacks by querying the "Segfault Detected" pre-built rule signal index, through a threshold rule, with a minimum number of 100 segfault alerts in a short timespan. A large amount of segfaults in a short time interval could indicate application exploitation attempts.

AWS Root Console Login Password Spraying

Identifies failed authentication attempts against the AWS Management Console root user from the same source IP address targeting multiple AWS accounts. Password spraying uses few attempts per target across many accounts to avoid lockout, making per-account volume an unreliable signal. This rule detects the cross-account breadth pattern: a single source IP generating root ConsoleLogin failures across two or more distinct AWS accounts. Requires an AWS Organizations-level CloudTrail trail aggregati

AWS CloudWatch Alarm Deletion

Detects the deletion of one or more Amazon CloudWatch alarms using the "DeleteAlarms" API. CloudWatch alarms are critical for monitoring metrics and triggering alerts when thresholds are exceeded. An adversary may delete alarms to impair visibility, silence alerts, and evade detection following malicious activity. This behavior may occur during post-exploitation or cleanup phases to remove traces of compromise or disable automated responses.
