RulenameThreat Essentials - Mass Cloud resource deletions Time Series Anomaly
DescriptionThis query generates baseline pattern of cloud resource deletions by an user and generated anomaly when any unusual spike is detected.

These anomalies from unusual or privileged users could be an indication of cloud infrastructure take-down by an adversary
