The 'Okta Account Lockout Events' rule has been deprecated and is superseded by the 'Okta Multiple Accounts Locked Out' rule. This anomaly detection uses specific Okta event types (user.account.lock.limit and user.account.lock) to trigger alerts based on user account lockout activities. An account lockout occurs when a user exceeds the allowed login attempts; thus, the user cannot access their account until it is manually reset by an administrator. This event aims to capture repeated invalid authentication attempts, potentially indicating unauthorized access attempts or credential misuse, allowing security teams to assess account lockout scenarios for any suspicious activities.
