SSH: UNIX id Response
This signature detects the output of the "id" command. Attackers use the id command after a successful attack to determine which users they have access to. Typically, when this command is present in an SSH session, a successful attack has already occurred.
Extended Description
An attacker could send commands to gage the level of access granted and then begin using the compromised system.
