Description

Identifies when an administrator has manually confirmed a user or sign-in as compromised in Microsoft Entra ID Protection. This indicates that an administrator has reviewed the risk detection and determined that the user account or sign-in activity is definitively compromised. This is a high-confidence indicator of account compromise and should be investigated immediately.

Detection logic

Its licence does not clear it for publishing here

Sunturai publishes a detection's own text where the licence it arrived under has been reviewed and permits it, and Elastic License 2.0 has not. The query as its source wrote it, its canonical form and the hash that pins this revision are in the workspace record.

  • Administrators may mark accounts as compromised during security testing or incident response exercises. If this is expected behavior in your environment, consider adjusting the rule or adding exceptions for specific test accounts.

Detections can measure how the public catalogue is used — which detections people look for, and which pages bring them here. It sets a cookie that recognises this browser for 180 days. It is never linked to an account and never follows you to other sites. Privacy notice
