Zeek's SMB logs provide visibility into SMB (Server Message Block) traffic, capturing details about file shares, authentication, and command execution on a network. They include:
smb.log: Summarizes SMB session info, including commands and status.
smb_files.log: Tracks file access details (e.g., file name, path, action).
smb_mapping.log: Logs SMB share mappings, showing shared resources accessed.
smb_cmd.log: Records specific SMB commands executed.
dce_rpc.log: Logs RPC calls over SMB, useful for monitoring remote procedure calls.
ntlm.log: Captures NTLM authentication attempts, indicating user authentication data.
kerberos.log: Tracks Kerberos authentication events, providing insight into domain logins.
These logs are essential for detecting suspicious SMB activity, such as unauthorized access or lateral movement.
