How to Monitor Linux ssh connection with "super user"?

Hello Splunkers !

I am looking for a way to monitor and retrieve the user that logged into my Linux machine, but only the user part of the root or wheel groups, or who are present in any sudoers file.

I was able to get the user who ssh into my machine using the 'var/log/secure' file but my challenge was to check if the user "have a lot of rights or not". I have some idea in mind to achieve this but maybe there were something out of the box with Splunk or the TA Nix Add-On....

If somebody already tried to so something similar, any help would be appreciated !

Thanks !
