This rule detects suspicious activity involving common web browser credential files (Cookies, Login Data) being read, created, modified, or renamed by processes associated with iCloud synchronization paths on macOS. This behavior is indicative of potentially malicious processes attempting to exfiltrate browser-stored session information or credentials.
This rule detects the use of the macOS 'xattr' command to remove the 'com.apple.quarantine' extended attribute from files located within '/Library/Application Support/iCloudsync/'. This action is typically performed to bypass macOS Gatekeeper security checks, allowing untrusted binaries or payloads to execute without user confirmation or security prompts.

This action is typically performed to bypass macOS Gatekeeper security checks, allowing untrusted binaries or payloads to execute without user confirmation or security prompts.
This rule detects attempts to bypass macOS Gatekeeper security controls by disabling security policies via the 'spctl' command, or by removing file quarantine attributes using the 'xattr' utility. These techniques are commonly used to execute unauthorized or malicious software that would otherwise be blocked by macOS security features.
Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of .plist files within the /Library/LaunchAgents/ directory on macOS. This directory is a common location used by adversaries to establish persistence, as files placed here are automatically loaded and executed by the system upon user login.
This rule detects suspicious file system activity (creation, modification, or renaming) performed by the ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) Agent process, excluding files within standard ESET installation and ProgramData directories. This behavior may indicate an adversary attempting to leverage the legitimate ERA agent to perform unauthorized file operations or masquerading as the agent.
This rule detects installation, file activity, or registry configuration changes associated with the 'bright-save-feed@tabtools.org' browser extension identifier. Such identifiers are commonly associated with malicious browser add-ons or potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) that may be used for browser session hijacking, unauthorized content injection, or persistent access.
This rule detects the use of the 'xattr' utility to remove the 'com.apple.quarantine' extended attribute from files located in '/tmp/'. Removing this attribute is a common technique used by attackers to bypass macOS Gatekeeper security controls, allowing unauthorized or malicious applications to execute without user prompts.
Detects the creation of .plist files in sensitive directories used by macOS launchd for automatic execution (LaunchAgents and LaunchDaemons). Adversaries use these locations to establish persistence by ensuring malicious code or scripts are executed at startup or upon user login.
This rule detects suspicious file system activity (creation, modification, or renaming) performed by the ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) Agent process, excluding files within standard ESET installation and ProgramData directories. This behavior may indicate an adversary attempting to leverage the legitimate ERA agent to perform unauthorized file operations or masquerading as the agent.
Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of systemd service files within a user's configuration directory (~/.config/systemd/user/). The rule further correlates these file events with the execution of 'systemctl --user' commands to enable or start these services, which is a common pattern for establishing user-level persistence on Linux systems.
This rule detects a suspicious sequence of activities that potentially indicates an attempt to exploit Common Log File System (CLFS) vulnerabilities or manipulate cloud filter drivers for privilege escalation. The rule monitors for a correlation between Registry modifications involving Cloud Filter settings (HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CldFlt) and the creation or modification of specific CLFS-related files (.blf, .blf2, .regtrans-ms) occurring within a 10-minute window, with an optional check for symbolic link manipulation (NtCreateSymbolicLinkObject).
Detects creation of a mandatory profile hive (NTUSER.MAN) matching the size produced by the RegLoadAppKeyW -> ORCreateKey/ORSetValue/ORSaveHive offreg.dll API sequence used to forge an offline registry hive for persistence, as observed with the TWINLOOT Python implant. TWINLOOT builds the offline hive via offreg.dll (RegLoadAppKeyW, ORCreateKey, ORSetValue, ORSaveHive) with Run key or COM hijack values baked in, then writes it to %USERPROFILE%\NTUSER.MAN so Windows loads it in preference to NTUSER.DAT at the next user logon, achieving persistence with no registry events, no admin privileges, and no visibility to standard tooling. Tightened to exclude the process image when it is a known legitimate profile-management or provisioning tool (USMT, SCCM, Intune Management Extension) that also uses offreg.dll to build NTUSER.MAN during normal mandatory/roaming profile deployment.
Detects creation of new scheduled tasks (cron), systemd services, or startup entries that reference the reverse_ssh tool, consistent with attacker persistence established after vCenter compromise.
This rule detects the creation or modification of suspicious files (extensions associated with web shells or modules, such as .aspx, .ashx, .asmx, .dll, or .config) within common Microsoft IIS and Exchange web directories. It correlates these file events with process activity initiated by common web server or management processes (e.g., w3wp.exe, powershell.exe) and filters out trusted files (Microsoft-signed), known administrative update activity, and files with a broader footprint in the environment to identify potentially malicious, low-prevalence artifacts.
Detects the execution of native binaries, the creation/modification of Node-API (.node) files, or the loading of .node modules from Visual Studio Code extensions directories. This behavior is indicative of malicious VS Code extensions attempting to execute arbitrary native code for reconnaissance, persistence, or exfiltration.
This rule monitors for suspicious activity involving the OneDrive directory, specifically the file 'wtsapi32.dll'. It triggers when this DLL file is created, modified, or renamed within the OneDrive folder, followed by the termination of the OneDrive process, and subsequent loading of the same DLL file by that process. This pattern is indicative of a DLL side-loading attack where a legitimate application (OneDrive) is used to load a malicious DLL.
Detects MsMpEng.exe creating a file in C:\\Windows\\System32\\.
This should never happen under normal operation Windows Defender does not install kernel drivers at runtime.
In the BlueHammer exploit, the TOCTOU race causes MsMpEng (SYSTEM) to write the attacker's driver payload directly into the drivers directory.

Detects potential exploitation of the ScreenConnect SetupWizard.aspx to bypass authentication and create unauthorized administrative users. The rule monitors for the creation or modification of User.xml or Users.xml files in the ScreenConnect application directories, correlating these file events with suspicious process activity (such as cmd.exe or powershell.exe) or web requests to the SetupWizard.aspx endpoint.
The following analytic detects a .wer file being written into the Windows Error Reporting ReportQueue directory by a process other than the standard error-reporting binaries.
Windows Error Reporting normally populates ReportQueue only through werfault.exe, werfaultsecure.exe, or wermgr.exe following an actual application crash.
In the ShieldBreak exploit, the attacker fabricates a .wer report directly and manually invokes the QueueReporting scheduled task, which causes wermgr.exe to process the report and load an attacker-planted phantom DLL at SYSTEM integrity.
If confirmed malicious, this activity indicates preparation for a local privilege escalation attempt abusing Windows Error Reporting.
