Detects execution of PowerShell commands containing suspicious arguments (e.g., encoded commands, download cradles) initiated by scheduled task binaries (svchost.exe, taskeng.exe, schtasks.exe) or involving specific suspicious strings associated with identified threat activity.

Detects the execution of command-line tools (powershell, cmd, bash, curl, etc.) originating from common package managers and build tools (npm, node, pip, python, yarn). The rule flags these processes if they contain command-line arguments indicative of suspicious activity such as base64-encoded commands, remote script execution (IEX, curl/wget to shell), or indicators of persistence mechanisms (scheduled tasks, registry Run keys).

Detects a suspicious multi-step process injection sequence originating from an obfuscated PowerShell process. The rule identifies PowerShell executing with common obfuscation flags (e.g., -enc, -nop, IEX) and performing multiple API calls (such as NtAllocateVirtualMemoryRemote, NtSetContextThreadRemote, CreateRemoteThread, or OpenProcess) targeting specific executables like csc.exe, chrome.exe, msedge.exe, or SearchIndexer.exe.

001
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 the execution of PowerShell with common obfuscation flags (-W Hidden, -nop, -nol) that attempt to load and execute a script directly from the user's local Temp directory. The detection specifically monitors for processes launched by command interpreters like cmd.exe or batch files, which is a common indicator of a malware dropper or stager.

Detects the use of PowerShell's 'WriteAllBytes' method to write a file to the user's Local AppData Temp directory, immediately followed by the creation of a known or suspicious executable file in that same location. This pattern is commonly indicative of a stage in a fileless-style malware attack or automated payload delivery.

Detects the execution of PowerShell scripts located in the user's temporary folder. The detection logic looks for common obfuscation flags such as WindowStyle Hidden, NoProfile, and NoLogo, combined with the -File argument, which are frequently used by droppers and malicious payloads to execute scripts in the background while evading immediate user observation.

This rule detects PowerShell commands that utilize specific character array joining techniques (e.g., [char]nnnn -join '') often used to obfuscate malicious strings or bypass keyword-based security filters. This is a common tactic for evading detection when downloading or executing payloads.

This rule detects command line patterns associated with common Impacket tools (wmiexec, psexec, smbexec) executed via Windows processes (cmd.exe, powershell.exe) or via network connections to ports 445 and 135 initiated by Python processes. These tools are frequently used by adversaries for lateral movement, remote service execution, and command execution on compromised systems.

This rule detects suspicious activity involving the creation of scheduled tasks for persistence using command-line arguments indicative of tool execution (e.g., chisel, powershell) or the direct execution of hidden PowerShell scripts intended to bypass execution policy.

Detects potentially malicious script execution patterns, specifically targeting Windows Script Host (wscript.exe) invoking .vbs or .wsf files, and PowerShell execution involving suspicious command line arguments such as encoding (-enc), external URL downloading, or attempts to execute or archive files (Expand-Archive, WebClient DownloadFile).

This rule detects potential web shell creation on a Microsoft Exchange server by monitoring for suspicious child processes spawned by the IIS web server process (w3wp.exe) that correlate with the creation or modification of web-accessible script files (.aspx, .ashx, .asp, .dll) within the Exchange virtual directories (ecp, owa, aspnet_client). This pattern is consistent with common post-exploitation activities used by attackers to gain persistent access via web shells.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity originating from code editors (VS Code, Electron-based applications) spawning suspicious child processes (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, calc.exe) or the creation of a specific suspicious file 'EXTINSTALL_PWNED.txt' in the 'Users\Public' directory.
