Isai 0e67a02594 [Rule Tuning] AWS IAM Brute Force of Assume Role Policy (#5282)
* [Rule Tuning] AWS IAM Brute Force of Assume Role Policy

Description and primary tactic for this rule is misleading. The rule captures an IAM principal enumeration technique used by tools like PACU, it does not capture AssumeRole brute-force attempts. I've changed the primary tactic to Discover, changed the rule name and updated the rule description and Investigation Guide to more clearly reflect what behavior is being captured.

The query itself remains the same and the threshold values. I changed the execution window to the standard 5 min + 1 min lookback and was still able to capture the behavior.

* Apply suggestions from code review

* adding rule.threshold values

adding ["cloud.account.id", "user.name", "source.ip"] as group by fields

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)
