Auth0 MFA Policy Enabled

Panther Rules

View Source
Summary
This detection rule monitors changes to the multi-factor authentication (MFA) policy settings for an organization's Auth0 tenant. It specifically looks for instances where an MFA policy has been enabled. The alert is triggered when MFA policies are updated, which is considered a security improvement aligning with best practices for safeguarding user identities and accounts. The implementation of MFA serves to add an additional layer of security, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorized access even if user credentials are compromised. The rule checks for related logs that confirm the modification of the MFA settings, detailing the user actions and the respective API calls made in the Auth0 management interface. A follow-up assessment may be required to determine if the change was made intentionally and in line with organizational policy. However, if the change aligns with known security measures within the company, further investigation may not be necessary.
