+This rule detects unusual request responses in Kubernetes audit logs through the use of the
+"new_terms" rule type. In production environments, default API requests are typically made by
+system components or trusted users, who are expected to have a consistent user agent and
+allowed response annotations. By monitoring for anomalies in the username and response
+annotations, this rule helps identify potential unauthorized access or misconfigurations
+in the Kubernetes environment.
