This rule detects the presence of executables with names commonly associated with legitimate Windows system processes (e.g., system32.exe, winlogon.exe, svchost.exe) but located in non-standard directories outside of 'System32' or 'syswow64'. This behavior is indicative of masquerading, where an attacker attempts to hide malicious executables by naming them after legitimate system processes and placing them in unusual locations to evade detection.
This rule detects potential Trickbot malware command and control (C2) communication by identifying network connections to specific remote URLs and ports commonly associated with Trickbot activity. It looks for multiple connections within an hour from the same device to these indicators.
This rule detects the presence of files on devices that match known ransomware SHA256 hashes. It filters out common system processes (explorer.exe, svchost.exe, system.exe) as initiating processes to reduce false positives.
This rule detects the creation or renaming of files with specific names associated with Deimos ransomware, including '.deimos', '.payment_id', or 'deimos_note'. These file names are commonly used by Deimos ransomware for encrypted files or ransom notes.
Detects the creation of processes with command-line arguments containing keywords associated with Conti ransomware, such as 'conti', 'conti-drop', or 'conti-payload'. This rule monitors Windows Security Event ID 4688, which logs process creation.
This rule detects modifications to specific registry keys that are commonly used for persistence by malware. The rule looks for Event ID 4657 (A registry value was modified) and checks if the ObjectName corresponds to known malicious registry paths related to Run keys, RunOnce, or service configurations. This indicates an attempt to establish persistence or alter system behavior for malicious purposes.
This rule detects when two or more files with suspicious names (e.g., 'update.exe', 'temp.exe', 'setup.exe') are created within a short timeframe (1 hour) in common user-writable directories such as 'Temp', 'AppData', 'Downloads', or 'Public'. This pattern can indicate the dropping of malicious payloads or staging of files by an adversary.
This rule detects potential ransomware activity by monitoring Windows Security Event ID 4657 (Registry Value Modified) for specific keywords commonly associated with ransomware notes or demands. It looks for terms like 'ransom', 'payment', 'decrypt', 'unlock', 'bitcoin', and 'monero' within the new value of a modified registry key, specifically within the 'Run' or 'Software' registry paths. This could indicate a ransomware variant attempting to establish persistence or store its ransom note details in the registry.
This rule detects the creation of processes with specific, known malicious hashes (identified as 'ProcessId' in the rule logic, but likely representing image hashes). It monitors Windows Security Event Log (EventID 4688) for process creation events and triggers when a process's identifier matches one of the predefined indicators of compromise (IOCs). This indicates the execution of a known Trojan or other malicious software.
Detects the creation or modification of files with specific names known to be associated with Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups. This rule identifies potential APT activity by monitoring for the presence of these highly suspicious file names on endpoints.
This rule detects attempts to bypass macOS Gatekeeper by removing the 'com.apple.quarantine' extended attribute from downloaded files. It specifically looks for HTTP responses containing the string 'com.apple.quarantine' in the file data, indicating a potential attempt to modify or remove this attribute during or after a download.
This rule detects HTTP responses containing a payload that appears to be XOR encrypted. It specifically looks for a sequence of at least 200 bytes consisting of non-printable ASCII characters (0x01-0x1f and 0x7f-0xff) within the file data of an HTTP response flowing to the client. This pattern is indicative of XOR encryption, often used by malware to obfuscate its payload.
This rule detects an unusually high volume of file deletion events on a device within a short time frame (100 or more files deleted within a 5-minute window). This activity can be indicative of malicious behaviors such as ransomware encrypting and deleting original files, data wiping attacks, or an adversary attempting to remove forensic evidence by deleting logs or other critical files.
Identifies the creation of '.node' payload modules by Lucid Stealer in the Common AppData folder, indicative of the SEA payload staging its remote control and theft modules. This rule specifically looks for file creation events where the file name ends with '.node' and the folder path matches a pattern under the user's local AppData 'Common' folder.
This rule detects potential command and control (C2) communication where data is hidden within image files using steganography. It specifically looks for HTTP responses (flow:to_client) containing JPEG image headers ('FF D8 FF') within the first 3 bytes, with a file size greater than 500,000 bytes. A threshold is applied to trigger an alert if 5 such events occur from the same destination within 60 seconds, indicating a potential high volume of large steganographic image transfers.
This rule detects when a file with the '.docm' extension is written to a network share via SMB. The presence of '.docm' suggests a macro-enabled Office document, which is often used in malicious campaigns. The rule specifically looks for the content '.docm' and a backslash character ('\') within the SMB traffic, indicating a file path or content related to a document.
This rule detects attempts to bypass the Mark-of-the-Web (MOTW) security feature by removing or altering the Zone.Identifier stream from downloaded files. Specifically, it looks for HTTP traffic (flow:to_client,established) containing both 'Zone.Identifier' and 'ZoneId=3' (which typically indicates an internet zone download) in the file data, suggesting an attempt to strip this metadata during transit to prevent security warnings or restrictions on the client side. This technique is often used by attackers to make malicious files appear less suspicious.
This rule detects the delivery of a payload via HTTP that contains junk code padding and appears to be an executable file. Specifically, it looks for the byte sequence '90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90' (often used as NOPs for padding or obfuscation) followed by the 'MZ' magic bytes at the beginning of a file (indicating a Windows executable). The detection is triggered on HTTP responses flowing to the client.
This rule detects the delivery of a polymorphic engine payload via HTTP. It looks for specific content within the HTTP response body, including the strings "mutate" and "engine" (case-insensitive), and the "MZ" magic bytes at the beginning of the file data, indicating a Windows executable. This combination suggests the download of a polymorphic malware component designed to evade detection.
This rule detects the presence of the string "ReflectiveLoader" in HTTP response bodies, which is indicative of a Reflective DLL Loading payload. Reflective DLL loading is a technique used by attackers to load a DLL into a process without the need for the DLL to be present on disk, often used for defense evasion.
This rule detects the creation of web shell files (ASPX, PHP, JSP) in common web server directories such as 'wwwroot', 'inetpub', or 'var\\www'. This activity is indicative of an adversary establishing persistent access to a web server.
