Rulename	Threat Essentials - Mass Cloud resource deletions Time Series Anomaly
Description	This 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
Severity	Medium
Tactics	Impact

Required data connectors	AzureActivity
Kind	Scheduled
Query frequency	1d
Query period	14d
Trigger threshold	0
Trigger operator	gt
