This rule detects unusual network connections from processes to legitimate service endpoints that are commonly abused for Command and Control (C2) activities (LOLC2). It specifically looks for connections to services like Telegram, Slack, Discord, GitHub, Google APIs, Pastebin, Dropbox, and others, originating from processes that are not recognized as legitimate applications for those services, and not from common system processes or standard program file paths. This helps identify potential adversary communication channels masquerading as legitimate traffic.

This helps identify potential adversary communication channels masquerading as legitimate traffic.
This rule detects suspicious activity involving the writing of both DLL and EXE files to the same path, followed by process masquerading (where the file name differs from the original file name) and subsequent DLL side-loading. It also attempts to identify the source URL if the Mark-of-the-Web (MOTW) is present, indicating a downloaded file. The detection chain tracks the process that writes the files, the parent process that initiates the file write, the process that performs the DLL side-load, and finally the loaded DLLs themselves, including various module load telemetry classifications.
This rule detects suspicious network connections to api.telegram.org from processes masquerading as legitimate Windows executables (MicDriver.exe, Winappx.exe, MsCache.exe, RuntimeSSH.exe, smqdservice.exe). It also identifies files with MD5 hashes matching known Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) from an external list. This combination suggests potential malware activity, possibly involving Telegram for command and control or data exfiltration, combined with process masquerading for evasion.

Detects the execution of an RMM tool where the filename is prepended with an IPv4 address (e.g., '45.119.55.66ClientSetup.exe'). This technique is actively used by the Silver Fox (Void Arachne) intrusion set to pass Command and Control (C2) IP addresses directly to the legitimate SyncFutureTec RMM tool, evading signature-based detection while maintaining the binary's valid digital signature.
Detects the presence of HTML tags within the URL query parameters of Claude chat application pre-fill URLs. Attackers can use this to embed invisible instructions (prompt injection) that the AI processes but the user does not see in the chat interface.
Detects the execution of files signed by "TrustConnect Software PTY LTD", a certificate issuer observed signing malware that impersonates legitimate workplace applications to deploy RMM backdoors. This rule identifies processes launched from binaries associated with this suspicious certificate.
This rule detects suspicious outbound network connections from devices that exhibit a consistent timing pattern (low standard deviation relative to the average time delta between connections) to public IP addresses. It specifically looks for connections that are not initiated by common browsers unless they are running in headless mode, or connections initiated by processes with low global prevalence or identified as Living Off The Land Binaries (LOLBAS). This pattern can indicate automated activity, command and control communication, or data exfiltration.
This rule set detects components of the ClipXDaemon, a Linux clipboard hijacker. The first rule, 'ClipXDaemon_Bincrypter_Loader', identifies a loader component characterized by specific strings related to process information, OpenSSL, gzip, and a pattern of variables (P, S, C, R) often used in shell scripts for unpacking, all within a small file size. The second rule, 'ClipXDaemon_ELF_Clipboard', targets the main ELF executable of ClipXDaemon. It looks for an ELF file that interacts with X11 clipboard functions (XConvertSelection, XSetSelectionOwner), attempts to masquerade its process name as 'kworker/0:2-events', and contains hardcoded cryptocurrency wallet addresses used by the attacker. Together, these rules aim to identify both the unpacking mechanism and the core functionality of the ClipXDaemon malware, which is designed to swap cryptocurrency wallet addresses from the clipboard.
Detects the creation of a hard link using mklink.exe, where the source is in C:\ProgramData and the destination is an executable in a user's AppData or Temp directory. This technique was observed in an APT36 campaign to stage and execute payloads while evading path-based detections.
This rule detects activities related to the DKnife gateway, which is associated with Adversary-in-the-Middle (AitM) attacks. It identifies the creation of specific DKnife process names (dknife.bin, sslmm.bin, postapi.bin, rules.bin, sshapi.bin, inotify.bin, curlapi.bin), file events involving DKnife configuration artifacts (rules.conf, sslmm.cfg, url.cfg), and the presence of specific marker strings ("dkimsi=", "460110672021628", "PASSWORD") in logs or captured payloads. The rule aims to identify the presence and activity of DKnife components on Linux systems.
This rule detects suspicious entries in the RunMRU (Most Recently Used) registry key that indicate potential persistence mechanisms. It specifically looks for entries containing DNS-related tools (like nslookup, dig, host), other common system utilities (ping, tracert, ipconfig, powershell, cmd.exe, wmic, curl, wget, certutil, bitsadmin), or suspicious flags commonly associated with obfuscated or malicious commands (e.g., base64 encoding, web requests, common sensitive paths). The rule also correlates these registry modifications with subsequent process creations to confirm execution.
This rule detects the execution or referencing of files named 'moonrise-client.exe', 'moonrise.exe', or 'moonriseclient.exe'. These filenames are associated with the Moonrise RAT, indicating potential malware activity on the system. The rule specifically looks for these filenames in the process's file name or command line arguments.

Detects execution of renamed instances of Microsoft Word from the Downloads directory, which may indicate masquerading or malicious delivery.
Detects the creation of files with a .sys extension in the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\ directory that are actually portable executables (DLLs/EXEs). This is a staging technique used by the REF4033 group to deploy the BADIIS malware.
Detects Notepad++ installer and portable files where the file hash does not match a list of known legitimate hashes. This could indicate a malicious file masquerading as Notepad++.
