Goal

Detects when a user disables Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) on their GitLab account.

Strategy

This rule monitors GitLab audit events user_disable_two_factor. When MFA is disabled, it reduces the account’s security posture and may indicate potential account compromise.

Triage & Response

  • Review recent authentication logs for the affected user account to identify any suspicious login patterns or locations.
  • Examine any recent password changes or account modifications that may indicate unauthorized access.
  • Verify if the user {{@details.target_details}} has a legitimate business reason to disable MFA on their GitLab account.
