Detection Logic

data_stream.dataset: "azure.identity_protection" and
    event.action: ("User Risk Detection" or "Risky user") and
    azure.identityprotection.properties.activity: "user" and
    not azure.identityprotection.properties.risk_state: (
        "remediated" or "dismissed" or "confirmedSafe"
    )

False Positives

  • Users accessing their accounts from anonymized IP addresses, such as VPNs or Tor, may trigger this rule. If this is expected behavior in your environment, consider adjusting the rule or adding exceptions for specific users or IP ranges.
  • Users who frequently travel or access their accounts from different geographic locations may trigger this rule due to the unlikely travel detection mechanism. If this is expected behavior, consider adjusting the rule or adding exceptions for specific users.
  • Users who have recently changed their passwords may trigger this rule due to the password spray detection mechanism. If this is expected behavior, consider adjusting the rule or adding exceptions for specific users.
