macOS Network Service Scanning Activity
Detects the use of common network scanning tools like netcat, nmap, and telnet on macOS systems. The rule specifically looks for process creation events where the image path ends with '/nc', '/netcat', '/nmap', or '/telnet'. It includes a filter to exclude 'netcat' commands containing 'l' (often used for legitimate listening modes), aiming to reduce false positives related to simple network listening.
