Monitor Email For Brand Abuse

splApache-2.0from splunk/security_content

The following analytic identifies emails claiming to be sent from a domain similar to one you are monitoring for potential abuse. It leverages email header data, specifically the sender's address, and cross-references it with a lookup table of known domain permutations generated by the "ESCU - DNSTwist Domain Names" search. This activity is significant as it can indicate phishing attempts or brand impersonation, which are common tactics used in social engineering attacks. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or reputational damage.
