Detects the execution of the NetSupport Manager remote access tool (client32.exe) when spawned by web browsers or script interpreters such as PowerShell or MSHTA. This behavioral pattern is frequently associated with malicious delivery chains including ClickFix and CastleLoader, where users are social engineered into downloading or executing suspicious payloads.

Detects attempts to disable Microsoft Defender security features. The rule monitors for PowerShell cmdlets (Set-MpPreference), service control operations (sc.exe stopping WinDefend), and registry modifications to the 'DisableAntiSpyware' policy key, which are common methods used by adversaries to impair host-based security defenses.

001
Detects the creation of virtual machines or the attachment of virtual hard disks (VHDs) using Hyper-V management tools, PowerShell, or Windows Disk Management utilities. This activity is often associated with efforts to bypass endpoint security monitoring by executing payloads within an unmanaged guest VM environment.

306
Detects command-line activity containing keywords related to API hooking (e.g., SetWindowsHookEx, hook, inline, trampoline) initiated by common scripting interpreters like powershell.exe, cmd.exe, or rundll32.exe. This pattern is often associated with malware attempting to inject code or capture data by intercepting process function calls.

005
Detects the systematic disabling or termination of security products and auditing tools on Windows systems, including Microsoft Defender, Sysmon, Filebeat, and WAF logging services. The rule triggers on process execution patterns associated with command-line tampering, service control manager manipulation, registry modifications, and the execution of specific batch scripts designed to impair defenses.

001
Detects anomalous post-compromise activity associated with Browser-in-the-Browser (BitB) attacks or general credential theft. Specifically, it monitors for browser processes spawning suspicious child processes (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe, mshta.exe) that are typically used for payload delivery, and unauthorized access to browser-stored credential files (e.g., 'Login Data') by non-browser processes.

001
This rule monitors for the execution and network activity of known data exfiltration tools such as WinSCP, rclone, and MegaSync. It also tracks the creation of configuration files associated with these tools and monitors DNS requests and browser navigation to known cloud storage and file-sharing destinations. This behavior is indicative of data staging and unauthorized exfiltration.

501
This rule detects potential re-compromise attempts by monitoring for access, file creation, or process execution associated with a set of known malicious web shell files. It correlates IIS web server logs (HTTP POST requests to shell files), EDR file modification events, and EDR process spawning events from common web server binaries (w3wp.exe, coldfusion.exe, jrun.exe) to identify persistence remaining after remediation.

001
This rule detects potential tampering with security software processes and services, as well as the execution of suspicious batch scripts (i.bat). It identifies when administrative tools like sc.exe, taskkill.exe, or net.exe are used to stop or delete security agents such as Sysmon, Filebeat, SentinelAgent, or antivirus services. It also monitors for the execution of 'i.bat' via command shell, which is commonly associated with malicious automation or persistence.

001
Detects attempts to disable Windows Defender features, including real-time, behavior, and script scanning monitoring, as well as modifications to the 'DisableAntiSpyware' registry key, disabling system recovery via bcdedit, or execution of common scripts used to disable Windows Defender.

001
This rule detects instances where common web browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, IE, Brave, Opera) spawn common administrative or scripting shells (PowerShell, CMD, mshta, wscript, cscript). This pattern is frequently indicative of drive-by downloads or malicious file execution triggered by social engineering, where an attacker leverages the browser process to spawn execution environments to run malicious scripts or payloads.

001
Detects coordinated efforts to impair host-based security by disabling Microsoft Defender via Set-MpPreference, terminating security agent processes (e.g., Sysmon, Filebeat, SentinelOne), stopping security services, or executing known security-disabling PowerShell scripts.

001
Detects the addition of Microsoft Defender exclusions (Path, Extension, or Process) via WMIC or PowerShell, followed by a file creation event within a suspicious directory (e.g., Temp, AppData, ProgramData) within 15 minutes. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to bypass antivirus detection for malicious payloads.

This rule detects instances where the WhatsApp Desktop application (WhatsApp.exe) spawns suspicious child processes commonly used for scripting or command execution, such as wscript.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe, cmd.exe, or rundll32.exe. It specifically excludes known legitimate update and service-related command lines to reduce false positives. This behavior could indicate a phishing attempt or malware execution originating from a compromised WhatsApp session.

Detects a user mounting a deceptive .dmg file that invokes a hidden .sh or .command script upon opening. This rule specifically looks for the 'hdiutil' process attaching a disk image and then correlates it with a process executing a hidden shell script (.sh or .command) from a mounted volume.

This rule detects command line patterns associated with Cobalt Strike Beacon injection, specifically looking for indicators of 'beacon.dll', 'beacon.exe', or 'injection' strings being executed by suspicious parent processes such as explorer.exe, svchost.exe, or winlogon.exe. This activity is indicative of post-exploitation behavior and potential lateral movement or persistence attempts.
