Detects when the Postgres service process or account attempts to modify system-level persistence mechanisms, such as scheduled tasks (cron/schtasks) or system services (systemd/startup folders), which are typical behaviors for an adversary using database service context to maintain persistence.

This rule detects potential persistence mechanisms in a PostgreSQL database by identifying the creation of a new shared library file (e.g., .so or .dll) within PostgreSQL plugin directories, followed by a modification to the PostgreSQL configuration files (postgresql.conf or postgresql.auto.conf) within a short 30-minute window. This behavior is indicative of an attacker registering a malicious shared library to be loaded upon database startup, a technique associated with PostGREShell-style post-exploitation.

Detects the creation or modification of specific files within the /tmp directory, specifically those matching naming patterns associated with 'jasper-log' files or temporary pipe files. These patterns are often associated with temporary storage or data staging activities during post-exploitation or malware execution.

This rule detects the presence of 'winpty-agent.exe' or 'winpty.dll' in proximity to 'node.zip' or 'build.zip' files within common user-writable or temporary directories ('AppData\Local\Temp', 'AppData\Roaming', 'ProgramData', 'Users\Public'). This pattern is often associated with the staging and execution of malicious tools or command-line wrappers in non-standard locations, bypassing legitimate application installation directories.

Detects PEEP credential/session theft via the native-messaging bridge, native host registration, staged CRX, or extension ID references. The nm_host.exe branch is now anchored to the known PEEP extension IDs (primary and alternate build) or the com.peep.lab path, rather than firing on any nm_host.exe spawned by a browser.

Detects the placement of potentially malicious executable or script files onto a network share followed by the execution of that specific file path from a different host within a short timeframe. This behavior is indicative of lateral movement using tainted shared content.

Detects the creation of files in the /tmp/ directory by common command-line tools (curl, wget, sh, bash), followed shortly by a successful external network connection by the same process from the same device, excluding known benign domains.

Detects the eicar_com.zip test archive used by the ShieldCrash PoC (CVE-2026-69414) to trigger Windows Defender's vulnerable scan/read path, only when observed alongside ShieldCrash binary or staging path/context indicators to reduce false positives from routine EICAR AV testing

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.

This rule detects the use of the 7-Zip utility (7z.exe) located in 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\' to archive files, specifically monitoring for the creation of an archive file named 'p.7z' within the same directory. This pattern of staging files and using an archive utility in public, writeable directories is a common behavior observed in adversary data exfiltration preparation.

001
Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of unsigned executable files (.exe, .dll, .sys, .efi) within critical Windows system directories (System32, SysWOW64, drivers, boot). The rule excludes activity triggered by known trusted OS update processes, such as TrustedInstaller or Windows Update services, and optionally flags occurrences outside defined maintenance windows.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity involving the modification of Excel macro security settings (specifically VBAWarnings or AccessVBOM) or the creation of autorun.inf files on removable drives. It identifies these behaviors when they coincide with the execution of Synaptics.exe within a 30-minute window, suggesting a potential correlation between local administrative tasks and malicious document-based payloads or portable drive staging.

This rule detects potential lateral movement activity by identifying executable or script files being written to administrative shares (C$ or ADMIN$) followed by the execution of a file with the same name on the destination device within 15 minutes. It includes logic to filter out known deployment/patch management service accounts and file names to reduce noise.

Detects the creation of ransom notes by the OpnKey ransomware family, which specifically uses the filename #Restore-My-Files.txt. This file is a characteristic indicator of the ransomware's post-encryption activity.

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.
