This analytic rule identifies cloud provisioning activities that originate from previously unseen IP addresses by utilizing AWS CloudTrail logs. It tracks events where cloud resources are created or started, and compares these activities against a baseline of known IP addresses. This is crucial for detecting unauthorized access or potential misuse of cloud resources, which can lead to data breaches or service disruptions. The rule is specifically designed to alert security teams about instances where new IP addresses are involved in provisioning activities, raising the potential risk of malicious actions such as unauthorized data access or resource exploitation. By maintaining an up-to-date list of known IPs through periodic baseline updates, the detection capabilities of this rule can be enhanced, reducing false positives and improving incident response effectiveness.
