LSA Secrets Dumped via Remote Registry Access
This rule detects attempts to dump LSA secrets by accessing the 'SECURITY\Policy\Secrets' registry key remotely over SMB (port 445). This activity is indicative of credential access attempts, specifically targeting cached credentials or other sensitive information stored in the Local Security Authority (LSA). The rule looks for the specific string 'SECURITY\Policy\Secrets' within TCP traffic destined for port 445, suggesting an attempt to read this registry path.
