Splunk Search

Splunk search that will find when customers first logged in?

I'm trying to come up with a Splunk search query that I can use to find when customers have first attempted to log in. We often get call outs regarding credential stuffing attacks, where 100's of accounts have attempted to log in, and part of my analysis is finding when these accounts first attempted to log in.

At the moment I've got this

 

index=keycloak
| sort time
| streamstats first(time) as first_login by username
| dedup username
| table username, first_login

 

The usernames are on display, but the 'first_login' column is empty

Hello @jhilton90 

You can also try using stats command.

index=keycloak
| sort time
| stats first(_time) as first_login by username
| eval time=strftime(first_login,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

If this helps, karma would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Manasa

Hi @jhilton90,

I don't know what you mean with "time", if you mean the events timestamp, you could try with _time:

index=keycloak
| sort time
| streamstats earliest(_time) as first_login by username
| eval first_login=strftime(first_login,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
| table username, first_login

Ciao.
