ATT&CK mappings (CTID)

• T1021 Remote Services — Centrally managed remote-access controls can restrict access to enterprise remote services so remote assets are permitted access only when they satisfy enterprise device-security and configuration requirements. • T1021.001 Remote Desktop Protocol — Remote Desktop access can be restricted through centrally managed authorization controls so that remote assets are permitted access only when they satisfy enterprise device-security and configuration requirements. • T1021.004 SSH — Conditional access policies for remote enterprise assets can deny authentication attempts to the SSH service if external SSH access is reachable through a remote-access control plane that can evaluates device posture • T1078 Valid Accounts — Access control policies for remote enterprise assets can evaluate device compliance before permitting access to enterprise resources. Requiring current anti-malware protection, secure configuration compliance, and current operating system and application versions can prevent valid credentials from being used from remote devices that do not meet enterprise security requirements. • T1078.002 Domain Accounts — Conditional access policies can evaluate device compliance before permitting domain-account access, preventing valid cloud credentials from being used from remote devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements. • T1078.003 Local Accounts — Conditional access policies can evaluate device compliance before permitting local-account access, preventing valid cloud credentials from being used from remote devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements. • T1078.004 Cloud Accounts — Conditional access policies can evaluate device compliance before permitting cloud-account access, preventing valid cloud credentials from being used from remote devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements. • T1110 Brute Force — Conditional access policies for remote enterprise assets can deny authentication attempts from devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements, reducing the ability to use brute-force activity from non-compliant remote endpoints. • T1110.001 Password Guessing — Conditional access policies can deny remote authentication attempts from devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements, reducing the ability to use guessed passwords from non-compliant remote endpoints. • T1110.003 Password Spraying — Conditional access policies can deny remote authentication attempts from devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements, reducing the ability to use password spraying from non-compliant remote endpoints. • T1110.004 Credential Stuffing — Conditional access policies can deny remote authentication attempts from devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements, reducing the ability to use compromised credential pairs from non-compliant remote endpoints. • T1133 External Remote Services — Centrally managed authorization systems can restrict access to enterprise remote services based on the security posture of the connecting asset, including anti-malware status, secure-configuration compliance, and operating system or application update status. • T1550 Use Alternate Authentication Material — Conditional access policies can evaluate the context and compliance state of a remote device when alternate authentication material is used, reducing the ability to use authentication material from devices that do not satisfy enterprise security requirements. • T1550.001 Application Access Token — Conditional access policies can evaluate device compliance and expected access context when application access tokens are used, reducing the ability to use valid tokens from non-compliant remote endpoints or outside approved access conditions. • T1621 Multi-Factor Authentication Request Generation — Conditional access policies can prevent authentication attempts from non-compliant remote devices from proceeding, thereby preventing associated multi-factor authentication requests from being generated.
