Linux Syscall Threat Detection in Splunk with Uncoder AI

  • A new approach for Linux syscall threat detection in Splunk using Uncoder AI is introduced.
  • The focus is on monitoring the mknod syscall, often exploited by attackers for malicious purposes.
  • Detection logic is designed around the mknod syscall and is tagged with MITRE technique T1543.003.
  • The detection method is based on analyzing auditd logs on Linux.
  • Uncoder AI simplifies the translation of Sigma rules to Splunk's Search Processing Language (SPL).
  • The solution offers an innovative way to convert cross-platform telemetry for effective threat detection.
  • Uncoder AI automates the challenges of field mapping and syntax differences between Sigma and Splunk.
  • It enhances Linux telemetry coverage, particularly for low-frequency, high-risk behaviors like mknod.
  • The solution facilitates quick deployment of threat content from Sigma to Splunk, improving detection capabilities.
  • It allows for enhanced monitoring of persistence techniques and covert channel creation in real time.
  • The tool is designed to bridge the gap between open threat content and proprietary platforms like Splunk.
  • The solution aims to reduce engineering efforts and enable security teams to focus on investigations.
  • The article is based on a post from SOC Prime.
  • The solution provides a minimal yet accurate query for detecting mknod syscall events in Splunk.
  • False positives may occur during device initialization by tools like udevadm or MAKEDEV.
  • Overall, the approach aims to streamline Linux threat detection using Uncoder AI in a Splunk environment.
