RulenameSharePointFileOperation via previously unseen IPs
DescriptionIdentifies anomalies using user behavior by setting a threshold for significant changes in file upload/download activities from new IP addresses. It establishes a baseline of typical behavior, compares it to recent activity, and flags deviations exceeding a default threshold of 25.
