Detects unauthorized file operations (creation, modification, or renaming) against the Windows hosts file located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. This is a common technique used by attackers to redirect network traffic, hijack domains, or disrupt communications to security services. The rule excludes common system processes known to perform legitimate maintenance on this file.

This rule monitors endpoint telemetry for known indicators of compromise associated with the Casbaneiro/Ousaban banking trojan. It identifies activity across network connections (IPs and domain patterns), DNS queries for specific C2 domains, and the presence or execution of known malicious file hashes (e.g., PDF lures, HTA, AutoIt scripts, and payload binaries).

Detects malicious network connections, file downloads, or process execution associated with the REVSTEALER malware campaign, which utilizes hijacked YouTube channels to distribute fake game-cheat videos that lure users into downloading 'resightloader.exe' from specific malicious domains.

Detects the creation or renaming of files with an 'ELAM' (Early Launch Anti-Malware) naming convention pattern outside of standard system driver directories, performed by processes that are not verified Microsoft-signed binaries. This may indicate an attempt to install or masquerade as a boot-start driver for persistence or subverting security controls.

Detects the execution of BloodHound/SharpHound reconnaissance tools and the presence of their generated output files (ZIP or JSON format) on a host. This rule monitors both the process creation events associated with the tool's execution and file creation events indicative of data staging or collection output.

Detects obfuscated PowerShell commands that utilize XOR operations combined with byte array manipulation and common file writing methods. This pattern is frequently used by malicious scripts to deobfuscate and drop payloads to disk.

Detects the use of PowerShell's 'WriteAllBytes' method to write a file to the user's Local AppData Temp directory, immediately followed by the creation of a known or suspicious executable file in that same location. This pattern is commonly indicative of a stage in a fileless-style malware attack or automated payload delivery.

Detects the creation or execution of suspicious .bat files within the Windows Startup folder, often coupled with command-line arguments involving .ini files. This behavior is indicative of persistence mechanisms where adversaries leverage the startup folder to ensure malicious scripts run upon user logon.

Detects the creation or modification of a file with a specific randomized name ('nloemfbihmhm') in the temporary directory, followed by the execution of a process identified as AutoIt from the same directory.

Detects the creation of compressed archive files (zip, rar, 7z, dat) followed by a significant network upload (exceeding 5MB) on the same host within a 30-minute window, which is indicative of staging and exfiltrating collected data.

This rule detects potential credential dumping attempts targeting the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) process. It identifies suspicious file execution based on a blocklist of known credential dumping utility hashes, unauthorized OpenProcess calls to lsass.exe with specific access rights, and the creation of process memory dump files (e.g., .dmp, .dump) correlated with an lsass.exe access event.

Detects indicators of the FamousSparrow threat actor, including the creation of known malicious files (e.g., DotNetNuke.ashx, start.bat), unauthorized .ashx file writes in web application directories, and suspicious command execution chains (start.bat execution or w3wp.exe spawning command-line utilities) following the creation of .ashx files.

This rule detects potential execution of malicious files from removable media (e.g., USB drives). It monitors for a sequence of events where a removable drive is mounted, a file is subsequently created on that drive, and then that same file is executed within a short time window.

This rule detects a correlation between the creation or modification of a specific file name ('nloemfbihmhm') and the subsequent execution of processes from the 'Temp' directory involving related filenames ('kojuyn.ini', 'ogftogcyiblzjccmcbnw.exe', or 'nloemfbihmhm') within a 5-minute window. This behavior is indicative of a multi-stage execution chain, often used by malware to drop and execute secondary payloads.

Detects PowerShell command execution that uses bitwise XOR operations combined with the .NET [IO.File]::WriteAllBytes method. This pattern is commonly used by malware, such as AsyncRAT, to deobfuscate and drop secondary payloads or modules onto the file system during execution.

Detects the 'Comet.exe' process, associated with the Perplexity Comet AI agent, accessing sensitive system files or configuration directories outside its expected scope. This pattern of file interaction is characteristic of unauthorized data collection or exfiltration attempts, specifically linked to the BragJack threat activity.

Detects instances where browser processes (chrome.exe or comet.exe) create multiple screenshot-related files in quick succession without apparent user interaction, a behavior pattern observed in the BragJack attack chain associated with hijacked browser AI agents.
