Goal

Detect when a Confluence global setting has been changed.

Strategy

This rule monitors Confluence audit logs for when a global setting has been changed. Global settings include configurations to allow users to share pages publicly and allow anonymous users access to the confluence site.

Triage and response

  1. Determine if the user {{@usr.name}} intended make the global setting change:
    • Is there a related ticket tracking this change?
    • Is {{@usr.name}} aware of this activity?
  2. If the results of the triage indicate that {{@usr.name}} was not aware of this activity or it did not originate from a known network, begin your company’s incident response process, and start an investigation.
