Suspicious Remote Read of AD CS CertLog Directory
Detects remote file access (via SMB, named pipes, or TCP) to the Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) 'CertLog' directory. This directory contains the CA database (.edb), which holds issued certificates and archived private keys. Access to these files from a non-CA host is a strong indicator of an attempt to exfiltrate the CA database for offline certificate and private key recovery.
