Rule Details

Suricata High Severity Alert

ID: wf-ids-001
Level: critical
Status: stable
Author: WitFoo

Detects high-severity Suricata IDS alerts (severity 1-2) forwarded through WitFoo's artifact pipeline. These represent the most critical network-based threat detections requiring immediate investigation.

Tags: attack.initial_access, attack.t1190

Detection Logic
  • streamName: suricata
  • severityCode: ['1', '2']

Suricata ATT&CK Mapped Alert

ID: wf-ids-002
Level: high
Status: stable
Author: WitFoo

Detects Suricata alerts that have been enriched with MITRE ATT&CK technique mappings, indicating that the IDS signature corresponds to a known adversary technique. These are higher-confidence detections with tactical context.

Detection Logic
  • streamName: suricata
  • attackTechniqueIds: T\d{4}

Zeek Notice Event

ID: wf-ids-003
Level: high
Status: stable
Author: WitFoo

Detects Zeek (formerly Bro) notice events, which are higher-level network analysis findings including protocol violations, certificate anomalies, and behavioral detections from Zeek's scripting engine.

Detection Logic
  • streamName: ['zeek_notice', 'zeek_weird']

Deprecated TLS Version Usage

ID: wf-ids-004
Level: medium
Status: stable
Author: WitFoo

Detects usage of deprecated TLS versions (TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1) that are no longer considered secure. These connections may be targeted for downgrade attacks and violate modern compliance requirements.

Anomalous Network Behavior

ID: wf-ids-005
Level: medium
Status: stable
Author: WitFoo

Detects anomalous network behavior events that deviate from established baselines. These behavioral anomalies may indicate novel attacks, insider threats, or compromised systems exhibiting unusual communication patterns.
