D3-SDA Session Duration Analysis
- Tactic
- Detect
Definition
Analyzing the duration of user sessions in order to detect unauthorized activity.
How it works
How it works
Detecting unauthorized user sessions by comparing the duration of a user logon session with a baseline behavior model. The behavior model comprises historical user session duration times. Abnormalities between session duration and the behavior model may indicate suspicious activity.
Considerations
• Potential for false positives from anomalies that are not associated with malicious activity.
• Attackers may not differentiate their session duration enough to trigger an alert.
