The rule AWS.CloudTrail.SES.ListIdentities is designed to monitor AWS CloudTrail logs for the 'ListIdentities' event, which is an API call made to Amazon Simple Email Service (SES). This event allows for enumeration of identities, such as email addresses and domains, associated with an AWS account. The rule is set to an informational severity level and, while it does not trigger alerts, it collects insights for auditing purposes. The rule captures essential event attributes such as event time, user identity, source IP address, and region, effectively documenting user actions and potential reconnaissance activity by tracking access to SES identities. By monitoring these logs, it aids in policy enforcement and understanding user behavior in the AWS environment, ideally suited for security purposes in a cloud context.
