Detects an executable creating a copy of itself in the current user's Startup folder by comparing the target name or hash with the initiating process. This method is often used by malware to establish persistence and regain execution when the user signs in.

Detects files or directories created beneath the PSEMHUB environment metadata transactions staging path, which could indicate data staging or server compromise. This rule specifically looks for file creation, modification, or renaming events within paths containing 'PSEMHUB.war' and '/envmetadata/transactions/' or '\envmetadata\transactions\'.

Detects HKCU/HKLM Run key write whose registry_value_data points to an executable under AppData\Roaming, correlated with a FILE_CREATION of that executable on the same host within 5 minutes. Consistent with the TuglaInsaatci steganographic loader dropping a randomly-named copy of itself (e.g. dEprjIuLKcEd.exe) to AppData\Roaming and registering it for autorun.

Detects the creation or modification of JavaScript or HTML files that contain code indicative of WebGL cloaking. This includes scripts that combine WebGL renderer collection, timezone detection, touch support checks, and console/devtools tampering. The rule looks for specific keywords related to these techniques within the file content or process command line, suggesting an attempt to fingerprint or obfuscate browser characteristics.

This rule detects the creation of a file named 'config.dat' within the Windows printer color profile directory (typically 'C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color'). This activity is suspicious because 'config.dat' in this specific location is often targeted by malware, such as the SprySocks backdoor, to maintain persistence or store malicious configurations. Legitimate modifications to this file are rare and usually associated with printer driver installations or manual color profile adjustments, which should be investigated as potential false positives.

Identifies the Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) forcibly modifying Chrome or Edge extension directories or registry preferences to inject malicious stealers. This rule specifically looks for file creation or modification events within browser extension folders, initiated by common installer/updater executable names.

This rule detects the installation of a LaunchAgent persistence mechanism on macOS. It specifically looks for the creation of a property list (.plist) file within the '~/Library/LaunchAgents/' directory, combined with the execution of the 'launchctl load' command, which is used to load and activate LaunchAgents. This technique is commonly used by malware, including infostealers, to establish persistence and survive system reboots.

Detects the secondary PowerShell stage explicitly downloading and writing the client32.exe NetSupport Manager RAT binary to disk. This rule identifies instances where a file named 'client32.exe' is created on a device, and the process responsible for this file creation is PowerShell.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by monitoring for file creations or modifications with specific extensions ('servertool.exe', '.prinzeugen', '.prinzeugen.tmp'). It aggregates these events and triggers an alert if a significant number of encrypted files, temporary files, or the 'servertool.exe' executable are observed. The rule also identifies if the activity originates from common user folders like 'Music' or 'OneDrive\Music'.

Detects the creation or modification of a file named 'logs.dat' within the 'AppData\Roaming\DT\' directory by processes other than 'explorer.exe' or 'system'. This pattern is often indicative of malware or unwanted programs attempting to establish persistence or store data in a hidden or less scrutinized location.

This rule detects the loading of a machine learning model (e.g., Pickle, PyTorch, or Hugging Face model files) via Python, immediately followed by the creation of a Windows Executable (PE) or Shared Object (.so) file on disk by the same initiating process. This behavior is indicative of an embedded stage-2 loader within a malicious model file, often seen in backdoored Large Language Models (LLMs). The time correlation between the model loading and the file drop is set to 45 seconds to identify immediate post-load execution.

Detects the creation of hidden Python virtual environments (.venv, .pip) in user directories used to cleanly execute OpenClaw and GhostSocks without system dependencies. This rule specifically looks for 'python.exe' executing with the '-m venv' argument followed by a hidden directory name (starting with a dot) and joins this with file events indicating a folder creation.

This rule detects the execution of a user-mode EDR Killer executable from common temporary or public directories (Temp or Public) immediately preceding the creation of a known ransomware or payload file (executable, MSI, batch, or PowerShell script). The detection logic looks for process command lines containing keywords like '-kill', '-bypass', or '-edr' for the EDR Killer, followed by a file creation event within a 5-minute window on the same device.

This rule detects suspicious activity involving interaction with the 'perplexity-ai.online' domain and the creation of specific browser extension files, which may indicate browser-based data exfiltration or credential theft. The rule correlates file creation events, DNS queries, and network connections, assigning a higher risk score when multiple indicators are present, particularly when evidence suggests exfiltration of keystroke or search data via web requests.
