Security Tools Keyword Lookup Via Findstr.EXE
This rule detects the execution of `find.exe` or `findstr.exe` on Windows systems when used to search for keywords commonly associated with security tools. Attackers often use these utilities to discover installed security software by piping the output of other reconnaissance commands (like `tasklist` or `whoami`) through `findstr` to filter for specific terms. The rule specifically looks for command-line arguments containing keywords such as "avira", "cb", "cylance", "defender", "kaspersky", "kes", "mc", "sec", "sentinel", "symantec", and "virus", including variations with double quotes.
