Suspicious Azure VM Extension Deployment
This rule detects the deployment of suspicious or potentially malicious extensions on Azure Virtual Machines. These extensions, such as CustomScriptExtension, RunCommandHandler, DSCExtension, AADLoginForWindows, and NetworkWatcherAgent, can be abused by adversaries for various purposes including remote code execution, account manipulation, and network reconnaissance. Monitoring their deployment can help identify unauthorized activity within an Azure environment.
