Detects the creation or execution of script files (.lnk) within the Windows Startup folder initiated by script hosts (wscript.exe or cscript.exe) that contain suspicious command-line arguments indicative of malicious activity, such as PowerShell obfuscation or encoded commands.

This rule detects the execution of PowerShell or Command Prompt processes that attempt to bypass execution policies while performing file downloads from suspicious domains (mnl.ac) or IP addresses (149.255.35.135). It also flags the use of common web-request cmdlets (Invoke-WebRequest, IWR, DownloadString, DownloadFile) to fetch scripts named 'configuration.ps1'. The rule includes detection for obfuscated commands using caret (^) symbols often used to evade keyword-based security filters.

Detects a suspicious PowerShell process lineage spawned by explorer.exe that exhibits characteristics of a 'ClickFix' social engineering lure (using obfuscated command lines) and proceeds to inject code into legitimate Windows or browser processes such as csc.exe, chrome.exe, msedge.exe, or SearchIndexer.exe. This activity is often associated with malware attempting to evade debugging.
Detects instances where explorer.exe initiates cmd.exe with suspicious command-line patterns often associated with malicious script execution or evasion. These include caret-based obfuscation, mixed-case PowerShell invocations, or base64-like blobs, alongside indicators of common malicious file paths or execution policy bypass flags.
This rule monitors for suspicious PowerShell command-line activity originating from Windows Explorer (explorer.exe) or embedded within RunMRU registry modifications. It detects obfuscated or hidden command execution patterns, such as base64 encoding, the use of -EncodedCommand, Invoke-Expression, or execution policy bypass flags, which are commonly associated with malicious scripts and fileless malware execution.
Detects known PowerShell dropper and embedded StealC payload binaries used in the ClickFix infection chain via exact SHA256 hash equality only
Detects execution of PowerShell commands that exhibit characteristics frequently associated with malicious activity, such as reflective assembly loading, compression/decompression operations, use of specific known obfuscation markers, encoded commands, or execution originating from suspicious parent processes like explorer.exe or cmd.exe.
Detects the execution of PowerShell with hidden window styles and encoded command arguments initiated directly from explorer.exe. This pattern is often indicative of malicious activity, such as fileless malware execution or obfuscated script delivery, where an attacker attempts to blend in with standard user interactions.
Detects the use of PowerShell to perform recursive file/directory enumeration within sensitive user profile directories (Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Pictures, OneDrive) immediately followed by a network connection over port 443. This behavior is indicative of potential data staging and exfiltration activity performed by a malicious script or threat actor.
The following analytic identifies suspicious PowerShell execution using Script Block Logging (EventCode 4104). It leverages specific patterns and keywords within the ScriptBlockText field to detect potentially malicious activities. This detection is significant for SOC analysts as PowerShell is commonly used by attackers for various malicious purposes, including code execution, privilege escalation, and persistence.
If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands, exfiltrate data, or maintain long-term access to the compromised system, posing a severe threat to the organization's security.

Detects instances where the Zoom installer process (zoominstaller.exe) initiates potentially suspicious child processes such as cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or scripting hosts (wscript.exe, cscript.exe) that are executing script files within a short timeframe. This behavior is indicative of a potential installer hijack or malicious payload execution attempting to leverage the context of a legitimate software installer.
Detects a multi-stage malware execution pattern consistent with VelvetCake activity. This includes staging text-based files in C:\Users\Public, downloading PowerShell scripts to temporary directories, executing the script via PowerShell, and subsequently deleting both the staged text files (except for specific allowed filenames) and the payload script.

Detects the execution of PowerShell commands that reference the 'nyx' script from 'raw.githubusercontent.com', combined with common download and execution patterns such as 'Invoke-Expression' or 'Invoke-WebRequest'. This activity is consistent with retrieving and executing remote post-exploitation scripts.
