Detects the execution of msiexec.exe to install an MSI package from a remote URL (http/https). The command line includes flags for passive installation (/passive) and an installation parameter (/i), initiated directly by Windows Explorer (explorer.exe), which is often associated with a user manually downloading and opening a malicious MSI file.
Detects Python compiled bytecode (.pyc) files that have been renamed to .cat, a common Windows Security Catalog extension. This is a masquerading technique often used by backdoors to evade detection and facilitate malicious loader execution.
Detects the execution of the Pester framework's Build.bat script, which is being abused as a LOLBAS (Living Off the Land Binary and Script) technique. This activity is typically characterized by being launched from an LNK file, often indicating a malicious dropper or secondary stage payload delivery.
Detects the mounting of Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) files using system processes such as explorer.exe or vds.exe. This activity is a known technique for bypassing Mark-of-the-Web (MOTW) security protections, as files within the mounted container may not inherit the MOTW attribute. This behavior was observed in Operation QUICSILVER, where actors used VHD files disguised with benign extensions to deliver malicious LNK payloads to targets.
This rule detects the execution of a suspicious, specifically named executable (ogftogcyiblzjccmcbnw.exe) originating from a temporary folder, or the creation/access of a related configuration file (kojuyn.ini) within the same temp directory. This pattern is consistent with the delivery and execution of malicious tools like AsyncRAT or similar threats that often use obfuscated filenames and localized configuration files within temporary user paths.
This rule detects potential exploitation attempts targeting VLC media player, specifically focusing on the CVE-2026-56711 integer overflow vulnerability. The rule identifies instances where VLC processes a PNG file originating from untrusted locations (such as Downloads, Temp, or removable media) shortly after that file was created or modified on the host.
Detects the execution of PowerShell commands initiated from a .lnk file that query system information related to virtualization technologies (e.g., VMware, VirtualBox, Hyper-V) or hardware details (e.g., BIOS, VideoController). This pattern is often used for environmental awareness or anti-sandbox/anti-analysis techniques by malware.
Detects the execution of PowerShell with common obfuscation or stealth-related flags (e.g., -enc, -nop, -w hidden) when initiated by CMD or from a LNK file, particularly when originating from Windows Explorer. This is a common pattern for malicious file execution and dropper activity.
Detects suspicious Git activity or file modifications within the plugin directories of various AI coding assistants (such as Claude, Codex, Copilot, or Gemini). This may indicate an attempt to inject malicious code or persistence mechanisms into the local environment via untrusted plugins.
Detects instances where ConnectWise Control (ScreenConnect) agent services initiate the execution of processes that are not part of the standard ScreenConnect application suite. This behavior is often indicative of post-exploitation activity or malicious use of remote access tools to launch secondary payloads.
Detects explorer.exe spawning the genuine cmd.exe binary with an explicit /c flag to run either the doxc\doxc.bat script from the 'My Resume.iso' lure chain, or config.bat co-occurring with the Documents_Details/windowSysUpdates decoy artifacts from the Document_Detail.zip lure chain — both used by Transparent Tribe (APT-C-56) to launch CrimsonRAT or the Golang RAT.

This rule monitors endpoint telemetry for known indicators of compromise associated with the Casbaneiro/Ousaban banking trojan. It identifies activity across network connections (IPs and domain patterns), DNS queries for specific C2 domains, and the presence or execution of known malicious file hashes (e.g., PDF lures, HTA, AutoIt scripts, and payload binaries).
Detects a sequence of actions often used to bypass macOS Gatekeeper protections: removing the quarantine extended attribute using 'xattr -c' on a file in the /tmp directory, followed by making that file executable with 'chmod +x', and finally executing the file. This behavior is indicative of malicious software attempting to evade Apple's security checks for downloaded files.

This rule detects the presence of files matching known SHA256 hashes associated with the GhostCode phishing kit. It monitors for these files both in email attachments and on local device filesystems to identify potential delivery and execution of malicious phishing payloads.
Detects instances where a web browser process (e.g., Chrome, Edge, Firefox) spawns a command shell (cmd.exe) or PowerShell (powershell.exe). This pattern is frequently associated with malicious 'ClickFix' or 'fake decryption' social engineering campaigns where users are tricked into copying and executing malicious commands into a terminal.
Detects ClickFix-style social engineering attacks where users are prompted to copy and execute malicious commands in a shell environment. The rule triggers on process execution of terminal or shell binaries (zsh, sh, cmd.exe, powershell.exe) containing indicators of obfuscated execution or remote code downloading, such as piped shell commands (curl | sh/zsh) or PowerShell encoded command execution.
This rule detects two distinct malicious activities: 1) The presence or execution of files with specific SHA1/SHA256 hashes known to be malicious, identified across file creation, process execution, or as initiating processes. 2) The forced installation of browser extensions in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge by identifying modifications to the 'ExtensionInstallForcelist' registry key.
Detects instances where common Microsoft Office applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook) spawn child processes that are typically associated with command interpretation, scripting, or LOLBins (Living Off the Land Binaries). This behavior is often indicative of malicious macro execution, exploit payloads, or obfuscated command execution originating from malicious documents.
