Detects creation of a scheduled task named "Windows Defender Advanced
Threat Protection Service" configured to run at system startup with SYSTEM privileges
and launch an executable named defender.exe. HoneyMyte (Mustang Panda) used this exact
schtasks command to establish boot persistence for the CoolClient backdoor sideloader,
masquerading the task and binary as a legitimate Windows Defender component.

Detects process execution reported by a Smokescreen decoy. A decoy runs no business
workload, so any process beyond the platform's own agent indicates an intruder has
reached the asset and is executing code on it.
Capture the command line in full: on a decoy it is uncontaminated by legitimate
activity and gives a clean view of attacker tooling and intent.
Onboarding: SMOKESCREEN is ingested via Syslog (CEF) (Bloo extractor 206).
Integration guide: https://bloo.io/docs/hypercloud/syslog-connector
BQL (Bloo Query Language):
stream=threat where sourcename='SMOKESCREEN' and action='THREAT_DETECTED'
and process != ''

Surfaces Microsoft Defender alerts that reference Candiru/DevilsTongue spyware terms or associated CVEs (such as CVE-2021-31979, CVE-2021-33771, etc.) attributed in threat intelligence reports.
This rule detects suspicious activity related to input capturing, keylogging, or credential access, specifically looking for corresponding 'ActionType' events in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (DeviceEvents) logs. It alerts on processes performing these actions on devices.
Detects schtasks.exe creating a scheduled task named "Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection Service" that launches defender.exe (a renamed Sangfor executable abused for DLL sideloading) with SYSTEM privileges at startup. This is the exact persistence mechanism HoneyMyte (Mustang Panda) uses to relaunch the CoolClient backdoor chain from the fake "Microsoft\Windows Defender" directory on every boot.

The following analytic detects the usage of the SharpHound binary by identifying its original filename, `SharpHound.exe`, and the process name. This detection leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process metadata and command-line executions. SharpHound is a tool used for Active Directory enumeration, often by attackers during the reconnaissance phase. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow an attacker to map out the network, identify high-value targets, and plan further attacks, potentially leading to privilege escalation and lateral movement within the environment.
This rule detects the presence of specific SHA-256 file hashes associated with the 'VPN for X' malicious proxy extension family, which are known to be used to transform systems into nodes within a proxy network.
This rule monitors for indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with known malware and C2 infrastructure, including specific IP:port combinations, malicious domains, URLs for file downloads, and SHA256 hashes of known malware. The rule correlates data across device network events, file events, and process execution events to identify potential infections or communication with malicious infrastructure.
This query hunts across your organization for users receiving a burst of emails from multiple senders or domains, to help uncover potential email bombing activity. It highlights who was targeted, how much email they received, and how diverse the senders and domains were, with configurable thresholds to fit your environment.
The following analytic identifies security events from Microsoft Defender, focusing on Exploit Guard and Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) features. It detects Event IDs 1121, 1126, 1131, and 1133 for blocked operations, and Event IDs 1122, 1125, 1132, and 1134 for audit logs. Event ID 1129 indicates user overrides, while Event ID 5007 signals configuration changes. This detection uses a lookup to correlate ASR rule GUIDs with descriptive names. Monitoring these events is crucial for identifying unauthorized operations, potential security breaches, and policy enforcement issues. If confirmed malicious, attackers could bypass security measures, execute unauthorized actions, or alter system configurations.
This rule performs indicator-based detection for the SectopRAT malware. It monitors network activity for connections to known command-and-control (C2) IP addresses and backup domains, as well as file and process creation events matching known malicious SHA256 hashes associated with the malware.
Detects instances where a user account associated with a detected infostealer malware infection (e.g., Redline, Raccoon, Vidar) successfully authenticates to a cloud service from a suspicious network location, such as a VPN, residential proxy, or Tor exit node, within 24 hours of the infection alert.
This rule monitors for indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with known malware and C2 infrastructure, including specific IP:port combinations, malicious domains, URLs for file downloads, and SHA256 hashes of known malware. The rule correlates data across device network events, file events, and process execution events to identify potential infections or communication with malicious infrastructure.
Detects activity associated with Everest ransomware by matching known file hashes (in DeviceFileEvents/DeviceProcessEvents) and known C2/leak-site domains (in DeviceNetworkEvents).
This rule monitors for indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with known malware and C2 infrastructure, including specific IP:port combinations, malicious domains, URLs for file downloads, and SHA256 hashes of known malware. The rule correlates data across device network events, file events, and process execution events to identify potential infections or communication with malicious infrastructure.
