VIEW RULE IN DATADOG VIEW SIGNALS

Goal

Detect when an Atlassian user is invited to the organization with the organizational administrator role.

Strategy

This rule monitors Atlassian organization audit logs for when a user is invited to the organization with the organizational administrator role. An attacker may try to invite an additional identity to the organization with high-level privileges.

Triage and response

1. Determine if the user {{@usr.email}} intended to invite the target user as an organizational administrator:
   • Is there a related ticket tracking this change?
   • Is {{@usr.email}} aware of this activity?
   • Is the network metadata associated with the activity unusual for this user?
2. If the results of the triage indicate that {{@usr.email}} 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.
