Detects Add-AppxPackage -Register against a manifest on a UNC path. Legitimate loose-file registration during development points at local paths; a UNC InstalledLocation is the core of UNCanny - it hands the SYSTEM Windows Store InstallService a LoadLibraryW on an attacker-controlled UNC via plugin resolution.

Detects a sequence of events where PowerShell is used to download files from 'nvidiadriver.net' or with filenames containing 'winPatch', followed by a suspicious file drop (specifically 'winPatch.zip' or 'update.vbs') in a temporary directory within a 30-minute window. This behavior is indicative of potential initial staging for a RAT or malicious script deployment.

Detects execution of PowerShell processes (powershell.exe, pwsh.exe) containing command-line arguments indicative of Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) bypass attempts. This includes known bypass strings, reflection-based patching of memory internals (AmsiUtils, GetDelegateForFunctionPointer), and base64-encoded fragments of common bypass techniques.

Detects attempts to disable the Windows Firewall using the netsh command-line utility or PowerShell cmdlets, as well as registry modifications related to firewall profiles. Adversaries often perform this action to impair host-based security controls and facilitate unauthorized inbound or outbound network traffic.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity leveraging the Windows Remote Management (WinRM) protocol over HTTP (ports 5985/5986). It specifically monitors for POST requests to the '/wsman' URI that contain the string 'powershell' in the request body, which is indicative of remote command execution via WinRM using PowerShell.

001
This rule detects the execution of PowerShell or pwsh.exe with an encoded command. Adversaries often use encoded commands to obfuscate their malicious scripts and evade detection. The rule specifically looks for the '-EncodedCommand' or '-enc' parameter followed by a base64-encoded string of at least 20 characters.

Detects a PowerShell process initiated by node.exe that attempts to reflectively load a .NET assembly from memory. The detection specifically looks for keywords related to .NET Reflection, byte array loading, and a known C2 domain (hellolargeworld.com), along with the 'Extension.SubRoutine.Run2' invocation, indicating potential backdoor activity.

This rule detects PowerShell or pwsh processes executing commands that contain the string 'autogenstudio' combined with a base64-encoded or obfuscated command pattern. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to execute obfuscated scripts or payloads associated with the Autogenstudio application or using it as a camouflage.

Detects execution of PowerShell commands that use the ExecutionPolicy Bypass flag while concurrently attempting to suspend BitLocker protection. This behavior is highly characteristic of ransomware activity, specifically associated with the ShrinkLocker malware, where the adversary disables disk encryption protection to facilitate malicious operations or subsequent encryption.

Detects the use of PowerShell to perform DNS lookups for TXT records followed by immediate command execution, such as using 'Invoke-Expression' or 'Start-Process'. This pattern is frequently indicative of fileless command-and-control (C2) communication where stage-payload commands or scripts are retrieved via DNS TXT records to evade detection.
