Hi,

We would like to create a use case for password spraying attack and Impossible travel activity in our environment.

Password Spraying Attack - Attacker tying to bruteforce using default passwords for multiple accounts.  
Reference - [Password Spraying Attack | OWASP Foundation](https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/Password_Spraying_Attack)

Impossible travel Activity - user successful login from multiple different location in short span  
Reference - [Create anomaly detection policies in Defender for Cloud Apps | Microsoft Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-cloud-apps/anomaly-detection-policy)

we would like to create EQL rule for the above cases.

Problem - the command that helps in alerting when different values in same Filed.  
For example :  
sequence by user\_name  
[any where type == "Success"]with runs=2  
[any where ip == "\*"](Here we need to capture different IP's exclude same IP's).

We are stuck at how to capture different values for the same field.

We are not using Machine learning currently.

Currently this is not possible with EQL.

I'm not sure on the new "new terms" detection because i haven't been able to test it yet.
