This rule detects a correlation between an email phishing burst (high volume of emails with a specific failed payment subject) and the subsequent creation of suspicious 'x_trace_' files in 'var/report/' directories. This pattern is indicative of a phishing campaign where a malicious attachment or link might be attempting to write local tracking or diagnostic files on a victim's host.

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.

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.

This rule detects the execution of potentially malicious files (executables, scripts) from user-writable directories (Downloads, AppData, Desktop) where the file appears to be related to a ZIP archive recently downloaded or extracted by an archive handler or browser. It correlates process execution events with file creation events from ZIP archives to identify potential user-execution of malicious payloads delivered via ZIP files.

This rule monitors for three distinct suspicious behaviors on Windows endpoints: the addition of executable files from temporary or user-writable directories to Windows registry run keys for persistence, the creation of repeated hidden log or data files in AppData directories, and unsigned processes accessing browser-related credential storage files.

Detects a DLL created or modified directly under C:\Windows\System32 that is then loaded into a process within 30 minutes of its creation. This creation-to-load temporal correlation is a durable indicator of a dropped-and-loaded malicious module (as used by the HardBreacher/SolidSnake exploit chain), independent of the DLL's filename. Signer/trust correlation intentionally omitted (DeviceFileCertificateInfo not part of this environment's ingested telemetry).

This rule detects potentially malicious activity associated with removable media (USB drives) by identifying two distinct patterns: first, the creation of an 'autorun.inf' file on a removable drive followed by the execution of a script or executable from that same drive shortly after. Second, it identifies executables appearing on removable media that are launched across multiple distinct hosts within a one-hour window, which may indicate worm-like spreading or mass-malware distribution via portable storage.

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 a shortcut file (.lnk) in the Windows Startup directory by the 'UpdateAssistant.exe' process. The rule specifically looks for evidence of a masquerading attempt where the shortcut appears to be an application update helper but potentially references or exhibits characteristics of being linked to a notepad execution, suggesting persistence via shortcut file manipulation.

Detects the creation or modification of crontab files, as well as the execution of crontab commands, that involve suspicious paths (e.g., /tmp, /var/tmp, /dev/shm, hidden files) or command obfuscation techniques such as base64 encoding. This behavior is often associated with the establishment of persistence by adversaries.

Detects the execution of an unsigned 7z.exe that loads an unsigned 7z.dll from a public, user-writable directory (C:\Users\Public\Documents). The rule specifically looks for the creation of the DLL shortly before it is loaded, indicating potential DLL side-loading to bypass security controls using a renamed or modified archive utility.

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 instances where WerFault.exe or WerMgr.exe, running with SYSTEM privileges, loads a DLL file from the Windows\System32 directory that was created within 10 minutes of the image load event. This behavior is indicative of potential DLL side-loading or hijack techniques used to achieve privilege escalation.

This rule detects modifications, creation, or renaming of the Windows hosts file located at 'C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts'. Adversaries often modify this file to redirect network traffic, facilitate phishing, or prevent security tools from communicating with update or telemetry servers.

This rule monitors for two indicators of potentially self-propagating malware: the creation of autorun.inf files on removable or network-mapped drives combined with active SMB network connections (suggesting worm propagation), and the rapid creation of multiple unique executable files across multiple devices (suggesting an outbreak or worm activity).

Detects execution and file activity associated with the XRed backdoor, which masquerades as 'Synaptics.exe' by running from the non-standard 'C:\ProgramData\Synaptics\' directory instead of authorized system paths.
