Detects the creation or modification of specific system driver files (nvfsflt64.sys, Alinubx.sys) combined with the installation or initiation of a Windows service associated with NVIDIA filter names. This behavior is often indicative of persistence mechanisms, potential rootkit activity, or the deployment of vulnerable drivers (BYOVD).

Detects behavior associated with the TeamFiltration backdoor, where a user account downloads a file from OneDrive, modifies or replaces that file, and re-uploads it within a short timeframe (30 minutes). This pattern is consistent with the 'taint shared content' technique used to distribute malicious files through legitimate cloud storage.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by correlating three distinct events: the execution of a suspicious, potentially obfuscated binary (matching a specific naming pattern of _win64.exe) from an untrusted location (e.g., Temp, AppData, Downloads), followed by a high volume of file modifications or renames with specific ransomware-related extensions (.locked), and the dropping of a known ransom note file (RESTORE_FILES.txt) within a short 15-minute time window.

This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with or bypass Windows Defender by monitoring for files or processes named 'ShieldCrash' occurring in close temporal proximity to the creation or modification of files within Windows Defender's shadow or scan directories (BaseNamedObjects\Restricted\WD_SHADOW_ or WD_SCAN). This behavior is often associated with malware attempting to evade security detection.

Detects a sequence of actions often used to bypass macOS Gatekeeper protections: removing the quarantine extended attribute using 'xattr -c' on a file in the /tmp directory, followed by making that file executable with 'chmod +x', and finally executing the file. This behavior is indicative of malicious software attempting to evade Apple's security checks for downloaded files.

Detects the creation of Object Manager symbolic links that redirect the Windows Defender 'WD_SCAN' object to a loopback UNC share path. This behavior is indicative of a symlink exploitation technique (ShieldCrash/CVE-2026-69414) used to manipulate Windows Defender or associated scan operations by redirecting them to an adversary-controlled or loopback-hosted target.

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 creation or modification of scheduled tasks (cron jobs) located within web application log directories (e.g., JBoss, Tomcat, Wildfly) that exhibit behavior consistent with malicious file reinjection. This rule correlates suspicious cron activity with recurring modifications to sensitive web files (e.g., JS bundles, checkout pages), indicating persistent skimmer activity that survives redeployment.

The following analytic detects email files (.pst or .ost) being created outside the standard Outlook directories.
It leverages the Endpoint.Filesystem data model to identify file creation events and filters for email files not located in "C:\Users\*\My Documents\Outlook Files\*" or "C:\Users\*\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook*".
This activity is significant as it may indicate data exfiltration or unauthorized access to email data.
If confirmed malicious, an attacker could potentially access sensitive email content, leading to data breaches or further exploitation within the network.

This rule detects potentially malicious behavior involving the Python interpreter spawning command-line shells (cmd.exe or powershell.exe), or interactions (creation/modification) with a specific file at 'C:\ProgramData\ur.txt'. This behavior is often associated with post-exploitation activities, staging, or script-based execution of malicious payloads.
