Log sources and channels
Exactly as MITRE states them in x_mitre_log_source_references. Where a channel is vague, it is vague in the source; kevmap does not tidy it.
| Log source | Channel | Data component |
|---|---|---|
| AWS:CloudTrail | GetObject, CopyObject | DC0025 Cloud Storage Access |
| AWS:VPCFlowLogs | Traffic between instances | DC0085 Network Traffic Content |
| esxi:hostd | process execution across cloud VM | DC0032 Process Creation |
Mutable elements
Parameters MITRE marks as environment-specific. These are the knobs you are expected to tune; they are why an analytic is not a rule.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
BucketNamePatterns | Destination naming convention used for staging (e.g., temp-store) |
IAMContext | IAM role or user performing multi-host write ops |
TransferWindow | Burst of high-volume inter-VM transfers indicating staging |
