Enabled User Right in AD to Control User Objects

Sigma Rules

View Source
Summary
This rule detects when a user is granted the SeEnableDelegationPrivilege in Active Directory (AD). This privilege is considered dangerous as it allows the user to control other user objects in AD, potentially leading to unauthorized access or privilege escalation. The detection mechanism relies on monitoring Event ID 4704, which logs the assignment of user rights. The rule looks for entries where the PrivilegeList contains 'SeEnableDelegationPrivilege', and it triggers an alert when this condition is met. Proper configuration of auditing policies related to authorization changes is necessary for this rule to function correctly.
