This rule detects a high volume of network share connections (SMB/CIFS) from a single device to multiple remote IPs within a short timeframe. This behavior can be indicative of ransomware attempting to encrypt files across network shares, or other forms of rapid lateral movement and data access. The rule specifically looks for connections on ports 445 or 139 initiated by common user or system processes like explorer.exe, cmd.exe, or powershell.exe.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by monitoring for a high volume of file creation or renaming events where the new file names end with common ransomware extensions such as '.encrypted', '.locked', or '.crypted'. It aggregates these events over 5-minute intervals and triggers if 50 or more such files are observed on a single device.

This rule detects suspicious file renaming activities indicative of ransomware. It specifically looks for files that previously had common document extensions (.doc, .xls, .ppt) being renamed to extensions commonly associated with encryption by ransomware (.encrypted, .locked, .crypted, .ecc). The rule triggers if 20 or more such renames occur within a 5-minute window on a single device.

This rule detects suspicious file activity indicative of ransomware by monitoring for a high volume of file creations or renames where the filenames contain common ransomware-related extensions such as '.encrypted', '.locked', or '.ransom'. It aggregates these events over a one-hour period per device and triggers if 20 or more such events occur.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by identifying a high volume of file encryption events. It looks for files being renamed or created with common ransomware-related extensions such as '.locked', '.crypt', '.encrypted', '.enc', or a generic pattern of a 6 or more character alphanumeric extension. The rule then counts these events within one-hour bins and alerts if more than 20 such files are detected in a single folder path.

Detects high-fidelity static artifacts from VECT 2.0 across Windows, Linux, and ESXi variants. This includes known SHA-256 hashes of the ransomware executables, the '.vect' encrypted file extension, the '!!!READ_ME!!!.txt' ransom note, the 'dvm3_wall.bmp' wallpaper, the 'vector_notice.sh' shell hook, and the embedded Tor C2 hostname. These indicators are unique to VECT ransomware and have no legitimate use.

Detects the load of RstrtMgr DLL (Restart Manager) by a suspicious process.
This library has been used during ransomware campaigns to kill processes that would prevent file encryption by locking them (e.g. Conti ransomware, Cactus ransomware). It has also recently been seen used by the BiBi wiper for Windows.
It could also be used for anti-analysis purposes by shut downing specific processes.

Detects instances of the openssl command-line tool being used to encrypt data with AES-256-CBC and RSA OAEP padding. This specific sequence matches the credential encryption pattern observed in the Linux/macOS payload of the malicious telnyx PyPI package attributed to TeamPCP.

Detects the specific OpenSSL command line arguments used by TeamPCP to encrypt stolen credentials before exfiltration. This rule looks for executions of 'openssl' with AES-256 encryption flags ('enc -aes-256-cbc' or 'enc -aes-256') and the use of a file to pass the encryption password ('-pass file:').

Detects a sudden spike in Windows RestartManager Event ID 10000. A proliferation of RestartManager events is a strong indicator of active file encryption by ransomware (like INC or Akira) attempting to kill processes that are locking target files.

Detects the execution of INC ransomware utilizing specific command-line arguments (--sup, --hide, --mode medium) typically staged from the C:\perflogs\ directory. This pattern indicates active ransomware execution during the impact phase of an attack.

Detects the execution of the Warlock ransomware payload using rundll32.exe to call the specific 'RunCryptor' export function from 'run.dll'. This activity represents the final stage of the attack chain, immediately preceding enterprise-wide file encryption.

This rule detects multiple stages of activity associated with BaqiyatLock ransomware and Remcos RAT. It identifies the execution of known BaqiyatLock/Remcos files, attempts to bypass User Account Control (UAC) via ms-settings registry hijack, creation of files with the '.bqtlock' extension indicative of BaqiyatLock encryption, and network communication with 'icanhazip.com' for external IP discovery, which is a common reconnaissance step.

Detects the creation of files with the '.waiting' or '.wait' extension, which are appended by Crytox ransomware to encrypted files. This rule specifically looks for file creation events where the filename ends with these characteristic extensions, indicating potential ransomware activity.

This rule detects the creation of specific mutexes associated with Payload ransomware activity. The detection is triggered when a process creates a mutex named 'MakeAmericaGreatAgain'. This activity is indicative of the Payload ransomware attempting to ensure only one instance of itself is running on a system.
