  condition:
    $push and $auth
}

Detection logic

Fires when at least one $push event in the 5m window and at least one $auth event in the 5m window.

Events

$push USER_UNCATEGORIZED

  • metadata.product_event_type = "system.push.send_factor_verify_push"
  • security_result.description matches "New Device=POSITIVE"
  • security_result.description matches "New IP=POSITIVE"
  • security_result.action = "ALLOW"

$auth USER_LOGIN

  • metadata.product_event_type = "user.authentication.auth_via_mfa"
  • security_result.detection_fields["factor"] = "OKTA_VERIFY_PUSH"
  • security_result.action = "ALLOW"

Correlation

Order
$push before $auth
Match key
$parent_session_id (network.parent_session_id)
Within
5m

Outcome

Fields the detection emits on a match. $risk_score drives alerting; Chronicle surfaces the rest on the detection.
