InterLock Ransomware (UNC5774) Detection
This rule detects various activities associated with the InterLock Ransomware (UNC5774). It identifies anti-VM checks performed via PowerShell, specifically looking for commands that query for QEMU, memory less than 4GB or 1.5GB, or specific desktop naming conventions. It also detects local group and Service Principal Name (SPN) enumeration using PowerShell cmdlets like 'Get-LocalGroupMember', 'Get-LocalGroup', or ADSI queries for 'samAccountName' and 'servicePrincipalName'. Persistence mechanisms are covered by monitoring registry Run/RunOnce keys for entries that launch 'node' or 'php' executables. Furthermore, the rule looks for suspicious staging of 'node.exe' or 'php.exe' within the AppData\Roaming directory when initiated by PowerShell processes. The rule leverages 'DeviceProcessEvents', 'DeviceRegistryEvents', and 'DeviceEvents' (specifically PowerShellCommand action type) to capture these activities.
