256 detections

This rule detects the creation of processes where the command line contains specific Unicode characters that are visually identical (homoglyphs) to ASCII letter characters. Adversaries use homoglyphs as an obfuscation and masquerading technique to make malicious commands or file names appear legitimate, thereby evading detection and tricking users. The rule specifically targets "perfect" homoglyphs that are indistinguishable from their ASCII counterparts.

This rule detects the execution of the Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (msdt.exe) when its executable file has been renamed. Adversaries often rename legitimate system utilities to evade detection mechanisms that might be looking for the original executable name. By checking for the original filename 'msdt.exe' in the process metadata while ensuring the image path does not end with '\msdt.exe', the rule identifies instances where the utility is run under a different name.
