This rule is designed to detect modifications or deletions of policy rules within the Okta application using event logs. It queries the Okta logs for events occurring within a two-hour window to identify any changes to policy rules. The detection logic utilizes a SQL-like query to filter out events based on their type, specifically targeting 'policy.rule.update' and 'policy.rule.delete'. Monitoring changes to security policies is critical as unauthorized modifications can indicate potential abuse or evasion tactics by malicious actors. The rule connects to Okta's event type catalog, providing specific indicators of compromise that could reflect not just an administrative task but also a significant security concern related to valid account misuse. By capturing these events, security teams can respond quickly to possible threats that exploit legitimate accounts and their settings. This helps in maintaining a secure configuration state within the Okta environment.
