Identity threat detection and response
Embodiments of the disclosure are related to a method, apparatus, and system for identity threat detection and response for a client computer network including: collecting network security logs for the client computer network; monitoring the network security logs; generating an alert if a condition of the network security logs matches a correlation rule or an anomaly is determined to meet a predefined condition; and, based upon the alert, initiating an automated response including disabling a user account of the client computer network.
1. A method for identity threat detection and response for a client computer network comprising:
collecting network security logs for the client computer network;
monitoring the network security logs;
generating an alert if a condition of the network security logs matches a correlation rule or an anomaly is determined to meet a predefined condition, wherein the network security logs are sent to a security information and event management (SIEM) database and are monitored by a rules and alert engine;
determining by the rules and alert engine if a condition of the network security logs matches a correlation rule or an anomaly is determined to meet a predefined condition, and if so, transmitting the alert to an IT service management platform; and
based upon the alert, initiating an automated response including disabling a user account of the client computer network, wherein, the IT service management platform initiates an automated workflow to implement the automated response to disable the user account by implementing an automated application program interface (API) for a device in the client computer network designated with an ability to disable the user account.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the network security logs collected are for multiple devices of the client computer network and are collected in multi-tenant fashion with other network security logs from other devices of other client computer networks being monitored.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the correlation rules or the anomaly are related to at least one of: a suspicious geolocation authentication, suspicious emails, suspicious inbox forwarding, a malicious IP address, a token issuer anomaly, or a suspicious browser.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the correlation rules or the anomaly are related to at least one of: authentication of a threat from the client computer network, leaked credentials, threat intelligence from the client computer network, or multiple security alerts for a same account from the client computer network.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein, the automated response to disable the user account by implementing the automated application program interface (API) for the device in the client computer network designated with the ability to disable the user account includes updating an account enabled field for the user account in the device to False.
6. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising code which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to execute a method for identity threat detection and response for a client computer network comprising:
collecting network security logs for the client computer network;
monitoring the network security logs;
generating an alert if a condition of the network security logs matches a correlation rule or an anomaly is determined to meet a predefined condition, wherein the network security logs are sent to a security information and event management (SIEM) database and are monitored by a rules and alert engine;
determining by the rules and alert engine if a condition of the network security logs matches a correlation rule or an anomaly is determined to meet a predefined condition, and if so, transmitting the alert to an IT service management platform; and
based upon the alert, initiating an automated response including disabling a user account of the client computer network, wherein, the IT service management platform initiates an automated workflow to implement the automated response to disable the user account by implementing an automated application program interface (API) for a device in the client computer network designated with an ability to disable the user account.
7. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the network security logs collected are for multiple devices of the client computer network and are collected in multi-tenant fashion with other network security logs from other devices of other client computer networks being monitored.
8. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the correlation rules or the anomaly are related to at least one of: a suspicious geolocation authentication, suspicious emails, suspicious inbox forwarding, a malicious IP address, a token issuer anomaly, or a suspicious browser.
9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein the correlation rules or the anomaly are related to at least one of: authentication of a threat from the client computer network, leaked credentials, threat intelligence from the client computer network, or multiple security alerts for a same account from the client computer network.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 6 , wherein, the automated response to disable the user account by implementing the automated application program interface (API) for the device in the client computer network designated with the ability to disable the user account includes updating an account enabled field for the user account in the device to False.
