MongoDB logging toggled

Panther Rules

View Source
Summary
This detection rule monitors for changes in the logging configuration of MongoDB within cloud environments. It specifically looks for events signaling that logging has been toggled on or off. The rule utilizes MongoDB's API to track relevant configuration updates that may affect security monitoring capacities. The primary events of interest include the 'AUDIT_LOG_CONFIGURATION_UPDATED' and other related events. If the logging is disabled, it may lead to potential issues in the visibility of database operations, which could have implications for security and compliance. The rule operates by analyzing logs from the MongoDB cloud service, expecting logging configurations to remain enabled at all times. If the logging configuration is changed, this rule will trigger an alert, indicating a change that needs to be examined to ensure continued security monitoring.
