Security Guardian Current - User Guide

Introducing Quest Security Guardian Using the Dashboard Tier Zero Objects Privileged Objects Assessments Findings Security Settings Appendix - Security Guardian Indicator Details

Findings

Findings allow you to view and investigate notable events in your organization's Active Directory and/or Entra ID, including:

  • Active Directory Tier Zero and Entra ID Privileged object activity, including the identification of unprotected Tier Zero objects.

  • Hygiene indicators detected by Security Guardian Assessments.

  • Detected TTP and Detected Anomaly Indicators collected by Security Guardian from On Demand Audit.

NOTE: Hygiene (from Security Guardian Assessments) indicates that objects are susceptible to an adversary attack. Detected (from On Demand Audit) indicates that an action took place that could possibly be an adversary attack. Detected TTP (tactics, techniques and procedures) are search-based detected indicators whereas Detected Anomalies are indicators based on statistical analysis.

To view Findings:

From the left navigation menu, choose Security | Findings.

The Findings list displays the following information for each finding:

  • Finding

  • one of the following Severity levels:

    NOTE: Security Guardian calculates severity levels by a range of values (i.e., the lower the value, the higher severity). If you sort by this column, you can see the Findings in order of most to least severe.

    Critical Generally reserved for Hygiene and Detected Indicators that are changes to Tier Zero and Privileged object security, have significant potential impact to the Active Directory or Entra ID environment, and are not part of the default Active Directory or Entra ID configuration.
    High

    Generally reserved for:

    • Hygiene and Detected Indicators that are of high concern but impact single objects.

    • the discovery of new Tier Zero domain objects and Privileged tenant objects.

    • changes to Tier Zero and Privileged objects that occur more often through normal business operations or are part of the default Active Directory or Entra ID configuration.

    Medium

    Generally reserved for the discovery of:

    • Tier Zero user, computer, group, and Group Policy objects.

    • Privileged user, role, group, and service principal objects.

  • Type (Tier Zero, Hygiene, Detected TTP, or Detected Anomaly)
  • Workload (Active Directory or Entra ID)
  • The date and time Last Detected
  • NOTE: This field displays the signed-in user's local date and time.

  • Status (Active or Inactive)

NOTE: If you click the Filter button, you can filter displayed results by one or more of the following criteria:

  • Finding

  • Severity
  • Type

  • Status

    (Active Findings display by default. You can choose to display either Active or Inactive Findings in the list, but not both.)

From the Findings list you can dismiss one or more Findings and view Finding history.

Investigating Findings

From the Findings list, you can investigate Findings in more detail for indicators of:

  • Tier Zero and Privileged objects that have been identified by the provider (Security Guardian or BloodHound Enterprise) or added manually by a user.

  • Hygiene and Detections that have been found through Security Guardian Assessments and On Demand Audit critical activity.

Click on the Finding you want to investigate.

The Investigate Finding page consists of two sections.

  • What Happened?, or for Hygiene, What Is Wrong?

  • How Do I Fix This?

You can navigate between sections either by clicking a section name or using the Next and Back buttons.

Investigating Tier Zero and Privileged Object Findings

The top of a Tier Zero or Privileged object Investigation page identifies the object being investigated, along with the following information:

  • the Severity of the Finding

  • the Finding Type (Tier Zero)

  • the Certification Status (Certified or Not Certified)

  • the Finding Status (Active or Inactive)

  • Last Updated (that is, the last time the Finding was detected)

    NOTE: Last Updated displays a relative time. However, if you hover over the clock icon you can see an exact date and time. This field displays the signed-in user's local date and time.

  • options to certify the object, dismiss the Finding, and view history of the Finding.

What Happened?

This section indicates why a Finding was raised for the object, as well why the object is considered Tier Zero or Privileged and the number of other Tier Zero or Privileged objects that it impacts and is impacted by.

NOTE: If BloodHound Enterprise is the provider, it can return a maximum of 1000 related objects for each category.

The What Happened? section also includes a series of links to help you complete your investigation, as described in the following table.

Link Description

NOTE: If BloodHound Enterprise is the provider, the View Relationships link to BloodHound Enterprise is also provided in this section.

Investigating Hygiene and Detected Indicators

  • Findings for Hygiene and Detected Indicators are raised when:
    • vulnerabilities are detected when a Security Guardian Assessment is run

    AND/OR

    • critical activity anomalies are detected by On Demand Audit.

    NOTE:Hygiene indicates that objects are susceptible to an adversary attack. Detected indicates that an action took place that could possibly be an adversary attack.

    • Detected TTP (tactics, techniques and procedures) Indicators are search-based.

    • Detected Anomaly Indicators are based on statistical analysis.

    The top of an Investigation page identifies the object being investigated, along with the following information:

    • the Severity of the Finding

    • the Finding Type (Hygiene, Detected TTP, Detected Anomaly)

    • the Finding Status (Active or Inactive)

    • MITRE ATT&CK TTP (if applicable)

      NOTE: Up to three TTPs may be returned for the finding. If "+ [number]" is shown to the right of the displayed TTP, hover over the icon to view the additional values.

    • the number of Affected Objects

    • Last Updated (that is, the last time the Finding was detected)

      NOTE: Last Updated displays a relative time. However, you can hover over the clock icon to see an exact date and time (which displays the local date and time of the signed-in user).

    What Happened?/What Is Wrong?

    The What Happened? (for Detected Indicators) or What Is Wrong? (for Hygiene) page provides a description of the Finding and lists the objects that are affected. The following information is included for each object:

    • Object Name (with a link that allows you to display object details)

      exception: If an Object Type is trustedDomain, Container or dnsZone, object details cannot be displayed from the Investigation page and the Object Name link will be disabled.

    • Principal Name (which is searchable)

    • Object Type

    • First Discovered date and time

      NOTE: This field displays the signed-in user's local date and time.
