Detects Microsoft Edge executable (msedge.exe) being created, deleted, or renamed within the 'C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Telemetry\' directory. This path is often used by adversaries to masquerade malicious files or persistence mechanisms as legitimate telemetry components.
Detects the creation, renaming, or modification of a file named 'FitnessMonitor.exe' within the Windows Startup folder. This behavior is indicative of an attempt to establish persistence by ensuring the executable runs automatically upon user login.
Detects the creation or renaming of files within the '\ProgramData\doxc' directory, and correlates this with the execution of 'mklink /H' commands that point to that directory. This behavior is indicative of an adversary establishing persistence or hiding files by creating hard links.
Detects the creation or renaming of files within the '\ProgramData\doxc' directory, and correlates this with the execution of 'mklink /H' commands that point to that directory. This behavior is indicative of an adversary establishing persistence or hiding files by creating hard links.
This rule detects the execution of cmd.exe or powershell.exe where the command line arguments involve the deletion or renaming of specific file names potentially associated with unauthorized activities or malware components. It looks for common command-line utilities (del, ren) being used by command shells on specific files that may indicate artifact cleanup or staging.
Detects malicious file system activity where the legitimate Python interpreter (python.exe) is deleted and replaced or renamed to a deceptive filename (codeflush.exe) within the 'C:\Users\Public\Music\MusicLibrariesPackage' directory. This technique is used by threat actors, including APT37, to mask the execution of Python-based backdoors and evade detection.
Detects suspicious Git activity or file modifications within the plugin directories of various AI coding assistants (such as Claude, Codex, Copilot, or Gemini). This may indicate an attempt to inject malicious code or persistence mechanisms into the local environment via untrusted plugins.
Detects file creation, modification, or renaming events initiated by ScreenConnect (ClientService.exe or WindowsClient.exe) that are not accompanied by associated user confirmation, consent, or file transfer events. This can indicate an unauthorized or silent file manipulation by a remote actor using the ScreenConnect tool.
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.
Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of files named '.passphrase' or '.txid' within user directories. These file names are indicative of potential sensitive credential or wallet-related data storage, which may be targeted by adversaries for credential theft or unauthorized access.
Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of plist files within macOS LaunchAgent directories that match a specific naming pattern (com.[16 letters].plist). This pattern is often used by malware or unauthorized scripts to establish persistence. The rule excludes common, legitimate system processes like Installer and softwareupdated.
Detects file creation, renaming, or deletion events within the Recycle Bin directory involving suspicious filenames or PDF files, which may indicate an adversary attempting to hide, stage, or delete evidence.
Detects file creation, modification, or renaming activity within AppData directories associated with VPN clients (CyberGhost, NordVPN, ExpressVPN). This rule is intended to identify potential unauthorized access, staging, or tampering with VPN configuration files or credentials often stored in these application directories.
Detects modifications, creation, or renaming of common cryptocurrency wallet files (e.g., wallet.dat, .wallet files) within known storage directories. This behavior is often associated with infostealers or malware attempting to exfiltrate or manipulate user financial assets.
Detects high volumes of file rename operations within a short timeframe, which is a behavioral indicator often associated with the encryption process of ransomware such as CRPx0.
Detects unauthorized modifications, creations, or renames of Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) configuration files or core shared libraries (such as pam_rootok.so or pam_permit.so) by non-root users. Attackers often modify these files to bypass authentication mechanisms and achieve privilege escalation. The rule excludes common package management tools to minimize false positives.
Detects unauthorized modifications, creations, or renames of Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) configuration files or core shared libraries (such as pam_rootok.so or pam_permit.so) by non-root users. Attackers often modify these files to bypass authentication mechanisms and achieve privilege escalation. The rule excludes common package management tools to minimize false positives.
Detects a large volume of file write, rename, or creation operations within a single minute by a single process, concurrently with the creation of files containing common ransomware keywords (e.g., 'readme', 'decrypt', 'how_to'). This behavior is characteristic of ransomware encryption activities.
This rule detects the creation, modification, or renaming of a browser extension's 'manifest.json' file, which is a critical configuration file for browser extensions. It correlates this file activity with simultaneous or subsequent network requests to common web-based productivity or email services (e.g., Google, Microsoft, Perplexity). This combination of file modification in an extension directory and network activity to sensitive domains may indicate the installation of a malicious browser extension designed for session hijacking or unauthorized data collection.
Detects execution of Windows command shells (cmd.exe, powershell.exe) performing suspicious file deletion or renaming operations involving specific filenames associated with potentially malicious activities or malware components.
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.
