### Investigating Unusual Network Activity
|
|
Detection alerts from this rule indicate the presence of network activity from a Linux process for which network activity is rare and unusual. Here are some possible avenues of investigation:
|
|
- Consider the IP addresses and ports. Are these used by normal but infrequent network workflows? Are they expected or unexpected?
|
|
- If the destination IP address is remote or external, does it associate with an expected domain, organization or geography? Note: avoid interacting directly with suspected malicious IP addresses.
|
|
- Consider the user as identified by the username field. Is this network activity part of an expected workflow for the user who ran the program?
|
|
- Examine the history of execution. If this process only manifested recently, it might be part of a new software package. If it has a consistent cadence (for example if it runs monthly or quarterly), it might be part of a monthly or quarterly business or maintenance process.
|
|
- Examine the process arguments, title and working directory. These may provide indications as to the source of the program or the nature of the tasks it is performing."""
