My Methodology to AWS Detection Engineering (Part 1: Object Selection)
A security blog for the Cybersecurity & Cloud Security community by a guy named Le Bron. But seriously, no relation. Welcome to the first installment of my new blog series discussing my methodology for threat detection engineering in AWS. This blog assumes you are familiar with Splunk Enterprise Security, its terminology, and/or similar SIEM functionality related to "Risk-Based Alerting" concepts. If not, you can read some reference docs here and here or if you prefer videos you can go here and here. Also, if you need a refresher on AWS CloudTrail userIdentity fields, see the official documentation here. To be clear, this is just what I have been doing, and it doesn't mean that it is prescriptive.
