  • AWS EventBridge Rule Disabled or Deleted source low: Identifies when an Amazon EventBridge rule is disabled or deleted. EventBridge rules are commonly used to automate operational workflows and security-relevant routing (for example, forwarding events to Lambda, SNS/SQS, or security tooling). Disabling or deleting a rule can break critical integrations, suppress detections, and reduce visibility. Adversaries may intentionally impair EventBridge rules to disrupt monitoring, delay response, or hide follow-on actions.↳ also matches DisableRule
