1,050 detections

Detects a burst of file modifications producing common
ransomware encryption extensions on a single host within a short window. This
captures the destructive-scripting / data-encryption impact behaviour that
AI-assisted cybercrime can drive, where a script rapidly renames or rewrites
large numbers of files after execution.

Detects coordinated malicious activity on VMware ESXi hosts indicative of ransomware attacks. The rule correlates multiple suspicious events within a 10-minute window, including the appearance of known ESXi ransom notes/banners, mass datastore file renames or encryption extensions, virtual machine stop events, and snapshot deletions designed to prevent recovery.

The following analytic detects modifications to files with extensions commonly associated with ransomware. It leverages the Endpoint.Filesystem data model to identify changes in file extensions that match known ransomware patterns.
This activity is significant because it suggests an attacker is attempting to encrypt or alter files, potentially leading to severe data loss and operational disruption.
If confirmed malicious, this activity could result in the encryption of critical data, rendering it inaccessible and causing significant damage to the organization's data integrity and availability.

Detects file system activity indicative of Royal and BlackSuit ransomware, specifically monitoring for the creation of ransom notes like 'README.TXT' or 'README.BlackSuit.txt' and mass renaming/encryption of files using extensions associated with these families (.royal, .royal_u, .blacksuit).

Detects the execution of files ending in '_win64.exe' from 'Perflogs' or 'Documents' directories, which is a known behavior of the Settra ransomware. The rule filters out common system and program file paths to reduce noise.

Detects the execution of Nova ransomware (formerly RALord) by monitoring for its specific modular command-line interface arguments, which include file encryption commands, ransom note deployment, and specific ransom note filenames. The rule monitors process creation events for strings like 'encrypt-all', 'encrypt-path', 'readme-add', '--workers', and the presence of the 'README_NOVA.me' ransom note or unique file extensions associated with its encryption activity.

Detects a suspicious sequence of events where a common internet-facing server process (e.g., w3wp.exe, nginx.exe) spawns a potentially malicious child process (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe), followed shortly thereafter by mass file modifications on the same host, which is characteristic of ransomware behavior following initial exploitation.
