Description

This playbook addresses the following alerts:

  • A user executed suspicious LDAP enumeration queries

Playbook Stages:

Triage:

  • Get additional event information about the LDAP searches executed by the user
  • Ensure that a single client IP exists in the alert
  • Get endpoint information for the client IP
  • Check preconditions for continuing investigation based on the number of suspicious attributes, attack tool queries, and vulnerable certificate templates

Investigation:

  • Enrich the user that executed the queries
  • Check if the user was created recently
  • Search for additional discovery alerts in the incident
  • Check user groups and roles to determine if the user is unprivileged
  • Check user querying frequency to detect anomalies
  • Get host risk level
  • Search for recent malware alerts on client IP

Remediation:

  • With analyst approval, disable the user in Active Directory if user-related anomalies are found and the alert is a True Positive.
  • With analyst approval, isolate the endpoint if host-related anomalies are found and the alert is a True Positive.
  • Logoff user from client host if an active session is detected and the alert is a True Positive.

Requirements:

For any response action, you need the following integrations:

  • Core - IR
  • Active Directory Query v2.
