Goal

Detect unusual logs from different geo locations made by a single user.

Strategy

The Impossible Travel detection type’s algorithm compares the GeoIP data of the last log and the current log to determine if the user {{@usr.name}} traveled more than 500km at over 1,000km/h. This detection rule aims to identify potential threats early, allowing for timely investigation and mitigation to protect server resources and maintain service availability.

Triage and response

  1. Investigate the source user {{@usr.name}} with requests from different geo-locations from {{@impossible_travel.triggering_locations.first_location.city}}, {{@impossible_travel.triggering_locations.first_location.country}} and {{@impossible_travel.triggering_locations.second_location.city}}, {{@impossible_travel.triggering_locations.second_location.country}}.
  2. Implement immediate measures to block or limit the impact of the suspicious activity if confirmed as a threat.
