What it detects

This rule detects Salesforce API traffic carrying the distinctive spoofed user-agent strings Salesforce-Multi-Org-Fetcher/1.0 or python-requests used by UNC6395 after stealing Drift OAuth tokens. These clients drove SOQL enumeration and bulk extraction of User and Case records, indicating automated mass data theft rather than normal integration traffic.
