* [Rule Tuning] AWS EC2 Full Network Packet Capture Detected **AWS EC2 Full Network Packet Capture Detected** Alert telemetry is low in general however the alerts that do exist are unnecessarily duplicative in nature. When a traffic mirror session is created (CreateTrafficMirrorSession), it is typcially created alongside A filter and filter rules (CreateTrafficMirrorFilter, CreateTrafficMirrorFilterRule) which determines what traffic will be mirrored. There is also a traffic mirror target (CreateTrafficMirrorTarget), which is the destination for the mirrored traffic to go. The original scope of this rule included all of those APIs when really the only API needed here is `CreateTrafficMirrorSession`, which is the actual network mirroring behavior. The rest of those calls can be used as additional context during alert triage, but I've significantly reduced the scope of this rule to only capture the actual traffic mirroring behavior. - reduced the query scope to `CreateTrafficMirrorSession` only - reduced the execution window - update description and investigation guide - replaced API reference link - added highlighted fields * updating mitre technique updating mitre technique * updated Mitre mapping adding network sniffing technique * updating references to include relevant threat blog updating references to include relevant threat blog * adding EC2 tag adding EC2 tag * updating EC2 tagging
rules/
Rules within this folder are organized by solution or platform. The structure is flattened out, because nested file hierarchies are hard to navigate and find what you're looking for. Each directory contains several .toml files, and the primary ATT&CK tactic is included in the file name when it's relevant (i.e. windows/execution_via_compiled_html_file.toml)
