Detects potential brute force attacks against a single Okta user account from multiple source IPs, indicating attackers rotating through proxy infrastructure to evade IP-based detection.

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.

The rule states no platform. This is derived from the ATT&CK technique it maps to.

Known benign triggers

  • Shared service accounts accessed from multiple legitimate infrastructure IPs.
  • Users with legitimate multi-location access (mobile + home + office) experiencing concurrent login issues.
