          Detection Event Possibly Anomalous

          Detection Event Possibly Anomalous

          Rob recently joined the company as a customer success representative. On Jan 15, 2019, Rob’s account was used to generate a report. Tony, the org’s Salesforce admin, noticed a ReportAnomalyEvent about this report generation activity.

          SecurityEventData (see next table)

          The SecurityEventData field contained this information.

          featureName featureValue featureContribution
          rowCount 46008 58.65%
          userAgent - 30.23%
          averageRowSize 1534 6.58%
          browserCodecs - 2.33%
          acceptedLanguages - 2.19%

          Tony notices that the rowCount feature is a bit high for their org. The second-ranking feature is userAgent with a feature contribution of around 30%. This percentage indicates that this user agent is not common for their org. Tony investigates further and finds Rob with the UserId field. Tony notices that Rob is a relatively new employee. By looking at the ReportEvent events, Tony notices that Rob occasionally generates reports of 46k rows. Because Rob is a relatively new employee, Tony can’t be certain whether this report matches Rob’s typical activity pattern.

          Tony concludes that this detection is possibly nomalous, although he doesn’t take any threat mitigation actions now.
