Honey credential information

Hello everyone
several users over the course of a month have attempted to log in to patchadmin, which is the fake account that creates rapid 7.

  1. How can I tell if a service or other has attempted to log in?
  2. Is there an appropriate query for my problem?
    I leave a copy of the evidence

Did that computer happen to update to WInodws 11 during this time?

no update

Hi,

does the happen on a regular basis?

If you search for destination_account = patchadmin

How often do you see this? When you say several users have attempted, I am not so sure this is caused by a user, note the NETWORK logon type as opposed to interactive. I would suspect this to be related to software.

Our own agent has a known issue where it appears to (sometimes) cause failed 4625 patchadmin logins when attempting to run the Honey Credential memory injection job. I’d recommend raising a support case if this is ongoing so that we can take a closer look
