Goal

Detect when a GitHub personal access token is used to clone repositories.

Strategy

This rule monitors GitHub audit logs for when a personal access token is used to clone a repository. If a user clones five repositories, a medium severity alert is generated. If the a user clones ten or more repositories, a high severity alert is generated.

Triage and response

  1. Determine if the multiple repository clones by {{@github.actor}} are an expected action.
  2. If the change was not authorized or was unexpected, begin your organization’s incident response process and investigate.
