description: |
    This analytic detects Lumma Stealer outbound connection attempts using Cisco Secure Firewall Intrusion Events.
    It leverages Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense IntrusionEvent logs to identify cases where Snort signatures with IDs 64797, 64798, 64799, 64800, 64801, 64167, 64168, 64169, 62709 have been triggered. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could indicate an active infection of Lumma Stealer.

how_to_implement: |
    This search requires Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Logs, which
    includes the IntrusionEvent EventType. This search uses an input macro named `cisco_secure_firewall`.
    We strongly recommend that you specify your environment-specific configurations
    (index, source, sourcetype, etc.) for Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense logs. Replace the macro definition
    with configurations for your Splunk environment. The search also uses a post-filter
    macro designed to filter out known false positives.
    The logs are to be ingested using the Splunk Add-on for Cisco Security Cloud (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/7404).
    The intrusion access policy must also be configured.
known_false_positives: False positives should be unlikely.
