Name:Crowdstrike Admin With Duplicate Password id:b8bccfbf-6ac2-40f2-83b6-e72b7efaa7d4 version:2 date:2024-09-30 author:Teoderick Contreras, Splunk status:production type:TTP Description:The following analytic detects CrowdStrike alerts for admin accounts with duplicate password risk, identifying instances where administrative users share the same password. This practice significantly increases the risk of unauthorized access and potential breaches. Addressing these alerts promptly is crucial for maintaining strong security protocols, ensuring each admin account uses a unique, secure password to protect critical systems and data. Data_source:
search:`crowdstrike_identities` primaryDisplayName = "*admin*" | rename riskFactors{}.severity as severity, riskFactors{}.type as risk_type, roles{}.type as role_type, accounts{}.domain as domain, accounts{}.dn as dn, accounts{}.samAccountName as user | stats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime by domain dn primaryDisplayName risk_type severity riskScore riskScoreSeverity user role_type | where risk_type = "DUPLICATE_PASSWORD" | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `crowdstrike_admin_with_duplicate_password_filter`
how_to_implement:To implement crowdstrike:identities logs, use the Falcon Streaming API. Set up an API client, authenticate with your CrowdStrike credentials, and subscribe to the "crowdstrike:identities" event stream. Process and store the logs as needed, integrating them into your logging or SIEM system for monitoring and analysis. known_false_positives:unknown References: -https://www.crowdstrike.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/CrowdStrike-Falcon-Event-Streams-Add-on-Guide-v3.pdf drilldown_searches: name:'View the detection results for - "$user$"' search:'%original_detection_search% | search user = "$user$"' earliest_offset:'$info_min_time$' latest_offset:'$info_max_time$' name:'View risk events for the last 7 days for - "$user$"' search:'| from datamodel Risk.All_Risk | search normalized_risk_object IN ("$user$") starthoursago=168 | stats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime values(search_name) as "Search Name" values(risk_message) as "Risk Message" values(analyticstories) as "Analytic Stories" values(annotations._all) as "Annotations" values(annotations.mitre_attack.mitre_tactic) as "ATT&CK Tactics" by normalized_risk_object | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`' earliest_offset:'$info_min_time$' latest_offset:'$info_max_time$' tags: analytic_story: - 'Compromised Windows Host' asset_type:Endpoint confidence:80 impact:100 message:Duplicate Password for Admin User found on $domain$ mitre_attack_id: - 'T1110' observable: name:'user' type:'User' - role: - 'Victim' product: - 'Splunk Enterprise' - 'Splunk Enterprise Security' - 'Splunk Cloud' required_fields: - '_time' - 'riskFactors{}.severity' - 'riskFactors{}.type' - 'roles{}.type' - 'accounts{}.domain' - 'accounts{}.dn' - 'accounts{}.samAccountName' risk_score:80 security_domain:endpoint
