This rule detects suspicious activities related to Protected Process Light (PPL) and driver loading that could indicate privilege escalation, defense evasion, or impact. Specifically, it looks for:
1. Processes running with 'System' integrity that were initiated by a process with a lower integrity level, which could suggest an attempt to elevate privileges.
2. Driver image load events where 'ntoskrnl.exe' is the initiating process, but the driver is loaded from a location outside of the standard 'System32' or 'System32\drivers' directories. This could indicate an adversary attempting to load malicious drivers to evade detection or persist.
3. DriverLoad actions initiated by 'ntoskrnl.exe' from outside the standard 'System32' or 'System32\drivers' directories, similar to the image load events, pointing to potential malicious driver activity.

Detects activity related to the PromptLock ransomware, which leverages the Ollama AI API and is written in Go. This rule looks for network connections to the Ollama service (port 11434) and related process executions, specifically identifying processes like go.exe, curl.exe, wget.exe, python.exe, powershell.exe making connections or processes with 'ollama' in their command line.

This detection identifies the presence of PromptLock ransomware by looking for known malicious file hashes (SHA1 and SHA256). PromptLock is reported to be the first AI-powered ransomware, written in Go, and uses a local AI model to generate malicious Lua scripts. The rule searches across both file and process creation events for wider coverage.

Detects the execution of "taskkill.exe" with the /f (force) flag, which is used to forcefully terminate processes. This activity can be leveraged by attackers for data destruction or data encryption for impact, particularly against services like Exchange and SQL Server. The rule includes filters to reduce false positives from common installer behaviors.

Detects modifications to Group Policy Objects (GPOs) that enable script processing. Threat actors, such as Storm-2603, abuse GPOs to deploy ransomware (like Warlock) by adding malicious startup or logon scripts. This detection identifies when the "Group Policy Scripts" client-side extension is added to a GPO, which is a key step in this attack chain. This activity is logged under Event ID 5136 on Domain Controllers.
