Summary
The "Okta Risk Threshold Exceeded" detection rule identifies instances when user accounts in Okta exceed a defined risk threshold, based on a combination of various suspicious activities. This rule aggregates data from multiple analytic stories, including "Suspicious Okta Activity," "Okta Account Takeover," and "Okta MFA Exhaustion". By analyzing risk scores and event counts over a 24-hour period, it aims to detect potentially compromised accounts that exhibit multiple tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) indicative of an attack. The correlation search uses the Risk Framework from Enterprise Security, helping security teams recognize and respond to threats effectively. False positives are manageable due to a defined number of events from the analytics involved, necessitating regular testing and tuning of the risk score according to organizational needs. This detection provides crucial insight into possible security breaches, emphasizing the need for immediate investigation when triggered.
