The 'Monitor Email For Brand Abuse' detection rule aims to identify potentially malicious emails that impersonate domains resembling those being actively monitored for abuse. The detection mechanism utilizes email header information, specifically the sender’s address, and checks it against a lookup table populated with domain permutations derived from the 'ESCU - DNSTwist Domain Names' search. This process is crucial for detecting phishing attacks or brand impersonation tactics frequently used in social engineering, which can result in unauthorized access, data breaches, or damage to the brand's reputation. When a match is found indicating potential brand abuse, the rule logs the pertinent email details such as the message ID, sender, domain, recipients, and timestamps for further investigation.
