Description

AlphaSOC detected a Confluence site export operation. This action creates a backup of the Confluence environment including all spaces, pages, attachments, and configuration data. While this is a legitimate administrative function, threat actors may leverage site exports to exfiltrate large volumes of organizational data in a single operation.

Impact

An unauthorized Confluence site export could result in the disclosure of the entire knowledge base, including confidential documentation, intellectual property, and other sensitive information. This action may lead to data exfiltration or further lateral movement within the organization's environment.
