Detects the use of the PowerShell 'Set-Service' cmdlet to modify a service's security descriptor (SDDL) to include 'DCLCWPDTSD'. This specific SDDL string is known to hide services from common utilities like 'sc.exe' and 'Get-Service', effectively making them invisible. This technique is primarily effective in PowerShell 7 and later versions.

Detects the usage of wmic.exe to start or stop a Windows service. This activity can be indicative of an adversary attempting to manipulate system services for various malicious purposes, such as persistence, privilege escalation, or defense evasion. While wmic.exe is a legitimate system tool, its use to control services should be monitored, especially when originating from unusual processes or user contexts.
