This rule detects the suspicious execution of the psql.exe command-line client interacting with the Veeam Backup database. It specifically monitors for attempts to query database tables containing sensitive user_name and password information, often correlated with WMI or encoded PowerShell execution, which suggests an attempt to extract credentials from backup software.
This rule detects potentially malicious PowerShell activity characterized by the co-occurrence of file download indicators (such as Invoke-WebRequest, WebClient, or UserAgent strings) and file execution or staging commands (such as IEX, Expand-Archive, or Copy-Item) within the same command line. It is designed to identify ingress tool transfer and command-line execution patterns often associated with post-exploitation or malware staging, while reducing noise by requiring both download and operational intent.
This rule detects potentially malicious command execution (RCE) originating from AI orchestration platforms and development runtimes (such as Ollama, LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, n8n, Node.js, and Python). It flags instances where these processes spawn command shells (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, bash, sh) and execute suspicious command-line patterns indicative of code injection or command execution (e.g., eval(), exec(), subprocess, child_process). The rule uses a threshold of 3 or more occurrences in a 15-minute window per device and process to reduce noise.
Detects execution of whoami.exe as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM within a short window of, and parented by, a suspicious SYSTEM-privileged shell spawn — a common post-exploitation confirmation step following successful ShieldBreak exploitation. Standalone whoami execution is excluded by design.
Detects the execution of LOLBins (PowerShell, mshta, cmd, wscript) directly spawned from common web browsers (explorer, chrome, edge, firefox) with command-line arguments indicative of malicious activity, such as base64-encoded commands, hidden window styles, or remote script download and execution.
This rule detects potentially unauthorized command-line activity originating from Power Platform-related execution environments (such as Copilot Studio or Power Platform sandboxes). It specifically monitors for the execution of common system administration binaries like cmd, powershell, or curl, which, when triggered from within a low-code/cloud runtime environment, may indicate a sandbox escape or an attempt to interact with the underlying host operating system.
Detects executables launched by common LOLBins (msiexec, powershell, cmd, wscript, cscript, regsvr32, rundll32)
that are either signed by a non-Microsoft/non-trusted-third-party publisher, or entirely unsigned.
that are either signed by a non-Microsoft/non-trusted-third-party publisher, or entirely unsigned.
Detects the DeviceManager RAT (run.pyw, spawned via python.exe/pythonw.exe) launching PowerShell or cmd with encoded/obfuscated arguments (-enc, -EncodedCommand, -e, -nop, -w hidden), consistent with C2-tasked arbitrary command execution.
Detects unusually high-volume recursive file/directory enumeration (dir /s, tree, Get-ChildItem -Recurse) spanning multiple distinct user-profile directories or department shares in a short window, excluding known AV/EDR scanning engines and backup-agent processes.
This rule detects potential multi-stage desktop takeover attacks by monitoring sequences of process execution within a 5-minute window. It looks for initial shell (explorer.exe or cmd.exe) spawning script-based tools (mshta.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe, cmd.exe) with suspicious command-line arguments (extensions like .lnk, .url, .hta, or PowerShell-specific artifacts like 'IEX', 'DownloadString', or '-enc'). This is immediately followed by a secondary stage where PowerShell, cmd, or rundll32 are used to load external DLLs, register modules via regsvr32, or interact with AppData/Local/Temp directories, indicative of payload staging and execution.
Detects the DOUBLECUP/ClickFix loader activity which involves a sequence of suspicious command-line execution patterns. The rule correlates three specific behaviors occurring within a 5-minute window: finding PowerShell paths using 'where', searching for the 'ZZ1984' marker using 'findstr', and executing a minimized background command process. This combination is highly indicative of the ClickFix delivery chain used to trick users into running malicious commands.
This query identifies creation/loading of SysExcSvc.dll and SysReadSvc.dll along with suspicious LSASS memory dumping, reverse SSH tunnel creation.
These patterns are prevalent with "Phantom" including unusual OneDrive or Microsoft Graph access from LOLBins or unexpected processes.

Detects the ClickFix-style social engineering technique used in the UNC6692 campaign where a victim, prompted via fake 'Outlook Version Verification' / 'OS Version Verification' buttons on a phishing page, is coerced into pasting a clipboard-copied batch or PowerShell script into the Windows Run dialog for execution.
This KQL detects attack used TCP port 4307 for unauthenticated access and replaced public\js\locale.php with a web shell that provided persistent remote access.
This rule detects potential malicious activity associated with the 'ClickFix' technique, commonly linked to Midnight Blizzard. It identifies a sequence of events where a device attempts to resolve or fetch a 'wpad.dat' file (a common indicator of proxy configuration manipulation or man-in-the-middle attempts) followed shortly thereafter by the execution of 'powershell.exe' or 'mshta.exe' spawned from 'explorer.exe' on the same host within a 30-minute window. This pattern is indicative of a user being coerced into executing malicious scripts under the guise of fixing connectivity or security prompts.
Detects msiexec.exe launched with /qn or /quiet by powershell.exe or cmd.exe to install an MSI package from a non-standard location, consistent with SMOKE#SCREEN techniques that silently install ScreenConnect via VBScript/WMI droppers and PowerShell downloaders.
Detects PowerShell command lines that fetch a remote module using methods like DownloadString or Invoke-WebRequest, subsequently executing the downloaded code in-memory via Invoke-Expression (iex), and finally invoking a main() function. This pattern matches the execution chain used by the CountLoader malware (taskType 5).
Detects instances where a Java process (typically a web application server like Tomcat) initiates suspicious command-line tools such as cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or various Linux shell binaries, using command-line arguments indicative of a reverse shell or code execution (e.g., -e /bin/sh, -i, /dev/tcp, IEX, DownloadString). This pattern is commonly associated with exploit attempts targeting vulnerabilities like Java deserialization.
This rule detects PowerShell execution patterns indicative of fileless information stealer activity. It searches for specific command-line flags often associated with obfuscated or hidden script execution (e.g., -EncodedCommand, -nop -w hidden, IEX) combined with attempts to access or target sensitive files and tokens (e.g., Cookies, Login Data, msal.cache, AAD.BrokerPlugin) common in Microsoft 365 and browser-based credential theft.
This rule detects potentially malicious command-line execution patterns often observed in 'ClickFix' or similar clipboard-based attack campaigns. It monitors for instances where standard Windows interpreters (PowerShell, cmd.exe, mshta.exe) are launched by legitimate shell processes (explorer.exe, rundll32.exe) and execute specific commands (like certutil for decoding) to process content found in suspicious or user-writable locations such as AppData or containing file extensions like .png (often used for steganography or file hiding).
Detects instances where Java or Oracle-related processes (java.exe, oracle.exe, tnslsnr.exe) initiate suspicious command-line tools like cmd.exe or powershell.exe to execute commands typically associated with reconnaissance, such as whoami or tasklist. This is a strong indicator of post-exploitation activity where a compromised web server or database process is being used to conduct system discovery.
