wscript/cscript Executing JS or VBS from User-Writable Directories
This rule detects the execution of Windows Script Host (wscript.exe or cscript.exe) to run JavaScript (.js) or VBScript (.vbs) files located in common user-writable directories such as Temp, AppData, Downloads, or Documents. This pattern is commonly associated with the execution of malicious scripts dropped as part of phishing attacks or initial access vectors.
