Name:Zscaler Scam Destinations Threat Blocked id:a0c21379-f4ba-4bac-a958-897e260f964a version:3 date:2024-09-30 author:Gowthamaraj Rajendran, Rod Soto, Splunk status:production type:Anomaly Description:The following analytic identifies blocked scam-related activities detected by Zscaler within a network. It leverages web proxy logs to examine actions flagged as scam threats, focusing on data points such as device owner, user, URL category, destination URL, and IP. This detection is significant for SOC as it helps in the early identification and mitigation of scam activities, ensuring network safety. If confirmed malicious, this activity could indicate attempts to deceive users, potentially leading to data theft or financial loss. Data_source:
search:`zscaler_proxy` action=blocked threatname=*scam* | stats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime by action deviceowner user urlcategory url src dest | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `zscaler_scam_destinations_threat_blocked_filter`
how_to_implement:You must install the latest version of Zscaler Add-on from Splunkbase. You must be ingesting Zscaler events into your Splunk environment through an ingester. This analytic was written to be used with the "zscalernss-web" sourcetype leveraging the Zscaler proxy data. This enables the integration with Splunk Enterprise Security. Security teams are encouraged to adjust the detection parameters, ensuring the detection is tailored to their specific environment. known_false_positives:False positives are limited to Zscaler configuration.
