Detects NeedyMantis-style DLL sideloading: a DLL is dropped at an anomalous ProgramData/ProgramFiles path mirroring known first-stage loader naming/path conventions (masquerading as Poedit, curl, Vim, TightVNC, Office, Broadcom, Intel, or NVIDIA components), AND that exact same DLL is subsequently loaded by a process within 10 minutes. Requiring the corroborating load event (rather than file presence alone) filters out benign drops such as installer staging, AV quarantine copies, or backup/sync tools that never execute the file.

Detects behavior indicative of the MLTBackdoor malware, specifically the creation or modification of a DLL file (such as *dlp.dll) shortly after or before the creation of an RC4-encrypted 'data.bin' file on the same host. The rule also looks for an optional preceding archive extraction event of common file types from Temp or Downloads directories by standard extraction utilities, which may indicate the staging of the initial payload.

Detects potential credential theft or malicious browser extension installation (DeepLoad-style) by monitoring for browser extension manifest file drops or registry-based extension force-installs occurring shortly after suspicious PowerShell command execution (ClickFix-style) on the same device.

Detects instances where AI-based coding or agent-driven tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, AutoGPT) perform suspicious file archiving/packaging activities followed by network egress to unauthorized or known exfiltration-prone services. This helps identify potential data exfiltration by AI agents or compromised development environments.

Detects instances where AI coding and agent tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot CLI, Ollama, LangGraph) create archive or database files containing potentially sensitive data and subsequently initiate network connections to non-AI-provider or non-developer services (exfiltration services or non-standard port connections).

Detects a behavioral fingerprint associated with the NeedyMantis group, characterized by the creation of a DLL and a identically-named, extensionless, encrypted archive file in the same directory within a short time window. This approach identifies the underlying packaging strategy rather than relying on static file names or known paths.

Detects .ps1-named files dropped to disk that are never actually executed by a PowerShell interpreter (powershell.exe / pwsh.exe) within a short window afterward. NeedyMantis's second-stage loader (e.g. encryptbase64.ps1) is raw x64 shellcode, not a real script -- it's read and executed directly by the dropping process, so no genuine PowerShell host process ever references the file by name. Replaces an earlier version of this rule that watched DeviceImageLoadEvents for a .ps1 extension: Windows can only emit an image-load event for a file with a valid PE header loaded via the OS loader, and raw shellcode has no PE header and is never mapped that way, so that approach would not have fired on this malware. Caveat: legitimate deployment tooling that stages a script for delayed or remote execution can also produce this create/execute mismatch; tune the window and add known-good deployment-tool exclusions for your environment.

Detects indicators of RMMCRAT malware installation, which masquerades as JivaChat software. The rule identifies suspicious process execution (e.g., rmm.exe), specific file artifacts created in ProgramData, and persistence mechanisms including Windows service registration, 'Load' registry value abuse, and a unique COM CLSID hijack. The logic enforces corroboration across different signal types (process, file, registry) or triggers on the unique CLSID.

Detects network communication with known malicious domains and IP addresses, as well as the presence of known malicious file hashes on the system. The rule correlates network connection events, file creation events, and process creation events against predefined lists of C2 infrastructure and malware indicators.

Detects suspicious file create or write operations within the domain SYSVOL Policies directory. This pattern is commonly associated with attackers attempting to deploy malicious payloads, such as ransom notes or configuration changes, via Group Policy Objects (GPO). The rule monitors Windows Event ID 4663 to identify unauthorized modification attempts by non-system accounts.

Detects the initialization of known-malicious Terraform providers (dockerd) followed within one hour by the execution of a 'go run' process from the .terraform directory. This pattern is indicative of a supply chain compromise where an adversary leverages a typosquatted or malicious Terraform provider to facilitate the execution of a secondary payload.

This rule detects potential execution of Vidar Stealer by identifying specific diagnostic loader strings (e.g., 'Loader: write failed') within file modification and process execution events. The presence of these strings in file metadata or command-line arguments indicates stage-specific activity related to the malware's loading process.

Detects specific file artifacts associated with an AsyncRAT infection chain that leverages a renamed AutoIT interpreter. The rule looks for the presence of a renamed executable, an encrypted .ini loader script, and an unnamed binary payload staged within a temporary directory, as well as associated batch script activity.

This rule monitors for file creation or existence patterns in the user's Local Temp directory that are commonly associated with infostealer malware, specifically looking for naming conventions like 'evo_cl_*.exe', 'evo_db_*.db', or the presence of a 'stolen.zip' file within subdirectories.

This rule monitors for the creation or renaming of executable files (.exe) within the 'Users\Public' directory. This directory is commonly used by adversaries for staging malicious payloads, as it is writable by standard users and often overlooked by security controls.
