Description

Identifies a single StealthTalk user registering two or more previously-unseen devices within a 24-hour window. Sudden registration of multiple new devices is a strong indicator of account takeover (an attacker enrolling their own device after credential theft) or device-farm abuse. The rule fires when a user produces two or more distinct NewDeviceId values within the lookback window, regardless of operating system. Look at the OSList custom detail to spot cross-platform patterns (e.g. an iOS-only user suddenly enrolling an Android device).
