Macros
The SPL above uses the following Macros:
aws_detect_users_with_kms_keys_performing_encryption_s3_filter is a empty macro by default. It allows the user to filter out any results (false positives) without editing the SPL.
Required fields
List of fields required to use this analytic.
- _time
- eventName
- requestParameters.x-amz-server-side-encryption
- requestParameters.bucketName
- requestParameters.x-amz-copy-source

How To Implement
You must install Splunk AWS add on and Splunk App for AWS. This search works with AWS CloudTrail logs
Known False Positives
There maybe buckets provisioned with S3 encryption
Associated Analytic Story
RBA
Risk Score | Impact | Confidence | Message |
---|---|---|---|
15.0 | 30 | 50 | User $user$ with KMS keys is performing encryption, against S3 buckets on these files $dest_file$ |
The Risk Score is calculated by the following formula: Risk Score = (Impact * Confidence/100). Initial Confidence and Impact is set by the analytic author.
