This rule detects instances where LockAppHost.exe or a variation of it (likely used as a proxy) initiates processes or command-line arguments that interact with Windows services, scheduled tasks, or Windows Defender configurations. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to disable security features, suppress Windows updates, or manipulate system services to evade detection.
This rule detects the creation of a scheduled task using 'schtasks.exe' where the task name matches commonly abused names such as 'WinUpdate.exe', 'SoftManager.exe', or 'LockAppHost.exe'. These names are frequently used by adversaries to masquerade as legitimate Windows processes to achieve persistence.
This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with Microsoft Defender security settings by creating or managing scheduled tasks that modify Defender exclusion paths. It correlates process execution (specifically schtasks.exe or PowerShell commands used for setting exclusions) with Windows Registry events that modify the Microsoft Defender exclusion path registry keys, flagging suspicious activity within a 15-minute window.
This rule detects the creation of a scheduled task using 'schtasks.exe' where the task name matches commonly abused names such as 'WinUpdate.exe', 'SoftManager.exe', or 'LockAppHost.exe'. These names are frequently used by adversaries to masquerade as legitimate Windows processes to achieve persistence.
Detects the modification or creation of scheduled tasks using OOBETaskScheduler or referencing Windows Servicing paths, combined with network connections to known malicious domains identified in threat intelligence.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task containing 'EdgeCore_AutoUpdate' in the command line using either schtasks.exe or Register-ScheduledTask. This pattern is often indicative of persistence mechanisms attempting to masquerade as legitimate update services.
This rule detects the creation of a scheduled task named 'GlobalProtectVPNUpdate' using schtasks.exe, which has been identified as a technique used to facilitate the execution of malicious payloads masquerading as legitimate GlobalProtect VPN components. It also monitors for the subsequent execution of 'GlobalProtect.exe' when initiated by Windows background services like taskeng.exe or svchost.exe, which is indicative of persistence and unauthorized code execution.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using the 'schtasks.exe' utility that reference suspicious paths (AppData/Local or Roaming) or specific executables often associated with suspicious activity (Launcher.exe, GapiUpdate.exe) in conjunction with 'DeviceSetupManager'. Additionally, it includes a hash-based detection for a specific known malicious file artifact.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using the 'schtasks.exe' utility that reference suspicious paths (AppData/Local or Roaming) or specific executables often associated with suspicious activity (Launcher.exe, GapiUpdate.exe) in conjunction with 'DeviceSetupManager'. Additionally, it includes a hash-based detection for a specific known malicious file artifact.

Additionally, it includes a hash-based detection for a specific known malicious file artifact.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task using schtasks.exe or reg.exe that is configured to run at system logon (/sc onlogon) using potentially malicious or persistence-related filenames such as client32.exe or NSM789508.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task using schtasks.exe or reg.exe that is configured to run at system logon (/sc onlogon) using potentially malicious or persistence-related filenames such as client32.exe or NSM789508.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task using 'schtasks.exe' where the initiating process is a script interpreter such as 'mshta.exe' or 'powershell.exe'. This behavior is often associated with the execution of malicious payloads or the establishment of persistence.
This rule detects the use of the LockAppHost process to execute suspicious commands associated with tampering with security configurations, including Windows Defender settings, service management (sc.exe), and task scheduling. Adversaries may abuse this process to bypass security controls, disable real-time monitoring, or maintain persistence.
This rule detects instances where LockAppHost.exe or a variation of it (likely used as a proxy) initiates processes or command-line arguments that interact with Windows services, scheduled tasks, or Windows Defender configurations. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to disable security features, suppress Windows updates, or manipulate system services to evade detection.
This rule monitors for potential persistence and malicious activity by aggregating three distinct detection signals: COM hijacking attempts via the InprocServer32 registry key, the creation of scheduled tasks using specific suspicious naming conventions, and the identification of named mutexes indicative of specific malware presence.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using the 'schtasks.exe' utility, a technique often used by the CRPx0 ransomware to establish persistence on a system. The rule specifically monitors for the '/create' command-line argument while excluding common, benign updater processes such as those from Microsoft Edge, Google, and OneDrive.
This rule detects the use of the LockAppHost process to execute suspicious commands associated with tampering with security configurations, including Windows Defender settings, service management (sc.exe), and task scheduling. Adversaries may abuse this process to bypass security controls, disable real-time monitoring, or maintain persistence.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task named 'Windows Update ALPHV' using the schtasks.exe utility. This task is associated with the OpnKey ransomware, which uses this name to masquerade as a legitimate Windows Update task while running with SYSTEM privileges to maintain persistence.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task using schtasks.exe or reg.exe that is configured to run at system logon (/sc onlogon) using potentially malicious or persistence-related filenames such as client32.exe or NSM789508.
