Detects when a USB mass storage device is connected to a host and is followed shortly thereafter by a large volume of file creations or modifications on a removable drive, which may indicate data exfiltration or staging.

Detects a high volume of file creation events (greater than 200 files) on an external USB mount session by a non-system account, which may indicate potential data exfiltration or staging to removable media.

Detects potential insider threats or departing employees by correlating abnormal bulk data downloads from cloud repositories (SharePoint/OneDrive/Box/etc.) with subsequent sensitive data access and exfiltration signals. It uses baseline behavioral profiling, requires a threshold of sensitive file interactions, and mandates high-confidence exfiltration indicators (removable media usage, suspicious external domains, or multiple combined destination events) to reduce noise. Archive/staging activity is used as an optional confidence booster.

001
Detects execution of xcopy with specific flags intended to perform recursive copying of files, including hidden and system files, into a staging directory located within C:\Users\Public\. This behavior matches the known exfiltration collection routine of the NarwhalRAT malware, often invoked by processes such as python.exe or userscreen.exe.

This rule detects the execution of RUSTYMOVE, a tool associated with the Transparent Tribe (APT36) threat group, which is used for propagation via removable media. It monitors for the specific executable 'Automata-20.exe', the presence of specific task-related command line arguments, the dropping of suspicious file paths, and PowerShell-based enumeration of connected USB/removable drives.

This rule detects potential data exfiltration by monitoring write activity to external USB storage devices. It identifies scenarios where a high number of files (more than 25) or a significant total volume of data (more than 100MB) is written to a connected USB device within a short timeframe.

This rule detects potential large-scale exfiltration or staging of sensitive documents to common cloud storage locations (Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive) or removable media. The rule specifically triggers when a high count (more than 20) of files labeled as sensitive are accessed or transferred by a single user within a session, specifically outside of standard business hours (before 7 AM or after 8 PM).

This rule detects a suspicious volume of file copy activity (over 200 files) to a non-local drive (potentially a removable/USB device) occurring within 24 hours of an account being deleted or disabled on the same host. This pattern may indicate an insider threat or an adversary attempting to exfiltrate sensitive data shortly before or after losing authorized access to an account.

Detects high-volume file writes or the use of common command-line copy utilities (xcopy, robocopy, copy) targeting removable drive paths (E-G:). This behavior is often indicative of data staging or exfiltration activities.

007
This rule detects a high volume of file creation or modification events on removable media (e.g., USB drives). A count of 10 or more file operations within a one-hour window by a single initiating process account on paths containing 'USB' or 'Removable' is considered suspicious and may indicate data exfiltration or staging.
