Detects PowerShell execution initiated by Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tools, specifically 'IDriveRemotePC.exe' or 'RemotePC.exe', when the PowerShell command line contains keywords indicative of downloading and executing remote content (e.g., 'DownloadString', 'IEX', 'Invoke-Expression', 'http', 'https', 'ftp'). This behavior is often associated with initial access or staging phases of an attack, such as ransomware deployment.
