This rule detects the presence of percent-encoded Bi-Directional (BiDi) control characters in URLs within network events. Specifically, it looks for '%E2%80%AE' (Right-to-Left Override - RLO), '%E2%80%8E' (Left-to-Right Mark - LRM), and '%E2%80%8F' (Right-to-Left Mark - RLM). These characters can be used to obfuscate URLs, making malicious links appear benign to users and potentially bypass security controls.
