Detection rule
Password spray succeeded detection (T1110.003)
Successful authentication from an address that was spraying passwords. GraphnAI raises an alert when it sees this in your domain controllers' security events.
How GraphnAI finds it
An OpenTelemetry collector sends the Windows Security log from your domain controllers to your GraphnAI server. GraphnAI checks each batch of events against every active rule.
This rule reads 2 events:
- 4624An account was successfully logged on
- 4768A Kerberos authentication ticket (TGT) was requested
One matching event raises the alert.
The alert shows the account's type and tier, and how many of its paths to Tier 0 are Validated.
Tiered Fidelity™ level: Validated
Telemetry saw the activity itself, so GraphnAI marks the account that authenticated with an alert edge at the Validated level.
- TheoreticalConfigured in the directory. Nothing else checked.
- ConstrainedA constraint on it has been checked.
- ValidatedThis alertTelemetry has seen it in use.
