analyzing-windows-event-logs-in-splunk

analyzing-windows-event-logs-in-splunk is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Youngmaidainon/Agent-Level-Up. It costs 81 tokens per session (3,192 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of analyzing-windows-event-logs-in-splunk, MIT.

A procedure for searching Windows Security, System, and Sysmon logs in Splunk, a tool for collecting and querying machine data. It uses SPL, Splunk's query language, to investigate suspicious activity.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate alerts, create Windows threat-detection queries, reconstruct endpoint or domain-controller timelines, and conduct threat hunting.
Why use it?
It helps turn large volumes of Windows events into searches for failed logins, privilege escalation, persistence, and movement between systems.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

analyzing-windows-event-logs-in-splunk scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/agent.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Analyzing Windows Event Logs in Splunk

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • SOC analysts investigate alerts related to Windows authentication, process execution, or AD changes
  • Detection engineers build SPL queries for Windows-based threat detection
  • Incident responders need forensic timelines of Windows endpoint or domain controller activity
  • Periodic threat hunting targets Windows-specific ATT&CK techniques

Do not use for Linux/macOS endpoint analysis or network-only investigations.

Prerequisites

  • Splunk with Windows Event Log data ingested (sourcetype WinEventLog:Security, WinEventLog:System, XmlWinEventLog:Microsoft-Windows-Sysmon/Operational)
  • Sysmon deployed on endpoints with SwiftOnSecurity or Olaf Hartong configuration
  • CIM data model acceleration for Endpoint and Authentication data models
  • Knowledge of Windows Security Event IDs and Sysmon event types

Workflow

Step 1: Authentication Attack Detection

Brute Force Detection (EventCode 4625 — Failed Logon):

index=wineventlog sourcetype="WinEventLog:Security" EventCode=4625
| stats count, dc(TargetUserName) AS unique_users, values(TargetUserName) AS targeted_users
  by src_ip, Logon_Type, Status
| where count > 20
| eval attack_type = case(
    Logon_Type=3, "Network Brute Force",
    Logon_Type=10, "RDP Brute Force",
    Logon_Type=2, "Interactive Brute Force",
    1=1, "Other"
  )
| eval status_meaning = case(
    Status="0xc000006d", "Bad Username or Password",
    Status="0xc000006a", "Incorrect Password (valid user)",
    Status="0xc0000234", "Account Locked Out",
    Status="0xc0000072", "Account Disabled",
    1=1, Status
  )
| sort - count
| table src_ip, attack_type, status_meaning, count, unique_users, targeted_users

Password Spray Detection:

index=wineventlog sourcetype="WinEventLog:Security" EventCode=4625 Logon_Type=3
| bin _time span=10m
| stats dc(TargetUserName) AS unique_users, count AS total_attempts,
  values(TargetUserName) AS users_targeted by src_ip, _time
| where unique_users > 10 AND total_attempts < unique_users * 3
| eval spray_confidence = if(unique_users > 25, "HIGH", "MEDIUM")

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
