Detects the execution of known potentially malicious tools cplsupport.exe and wtass.exe with install parameters, or the creation of a Windows service associated with these filenames using sc.exe. This activity is indicative of service-based persistence or malicious software installation.

This rule detects potential persistence attempts by monitoring for the execution and service installation commands of specific binaries: cplsupport.exe and wtass.exe. The rule triggers if these files are executed directly, invoked with specific command-line arguments (e.g., '--install'), or used in conjunction with the 'sc.exe' utility to create new services, which is a common technique for establishing persistence or privilege escalation.

This rule detects the installation or modification of ScreenConnect services on Windows endpoints. It monitors for the creation of services using 'sc.exe', process commands related to ScreenConnect setup executables, or registry modifications and service installations associated with specific ScreenConnect identifiers, often indicative of unauthorized remote management software installation.

Detects the execution of a process named 's.exe' (or similar match) with a command-line argument consisting of a single character 's' followed by a digit. This pattern is commonly associated with malicious usage or obfuscation, where 's.exe' might be a renamed utility or a malicious artifact attempting to masquerade or execute specific tasks.

Detects attempts to install or modify the 'WMI Provider Host' (WmiPrvSE) service, which is a common technique used by adversaries for persistence or to masquerade malicious activity. The rule monitors process execution, registry modifications, and service installation events specifically targeting this service name.

Detects the loading and service creation of the CcProtect/Alinubx kernel driver, a known technique for Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks. The rule identifies suspicious characteristics such as file name mismatches, unauthorized product/company signatures, and the creation of services associated with this malicious driver family (e.g., NvFsFilter) to facilitate EDR/AV termination or privilege escalation.

Detects the installation and loading of a suspicious driver named 'NvFsFilter' (nvfsflt64.sys), accompanied by registry persistence and suspicious process termination events. This pattern is characteristic of a 'kill-loop' persistence mechanism where malicious drivers or services repeatedly terminate security agents (AV/EDR) to maintain a persistent foothold on the endpoint.

This rule performs a hunting activity across multiple telemetry sources (Network, Email, Endpoint) to detect known indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with Anthropic threat intelligence reporting (September 2026). It looks for specific malware file names, command-line patterns, service installations, phishing email addresses, and C2 communication URLs.

Detects the loading or presence of the vulnerable GIGABYTE driver (gdrv.sys), which is frequently exploited in Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks to gain kernel-level access and disable security products. The rule monitors for file artifacts and service creation/execution commands associated with this driver.

Detects the presence of references to the gdrv.sys driver within files or command-line strings. The gdrv.sys driver is a known vulnerable driver frequently exploited in Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks to gain kernel-mode privileges and disable endpoint security products.

Detects the creation or modification of specific system driver files (nvfsflt64.sys, Alinubx.sys) combined with the installation or initiation of a Windows service associated with NVIDIA filter names. This behavior is often indicative of persistence mechanisms, potential rootkit activity, or the deployment of vulnerable drivers (BYOVD).

Detects post-exploitation persistence artifacts on Windows endpoints managed by N-able N-central consistent with abuse of CVE-2026-18577, including a new Windows service named Cloudflared, registry Services key creation for Cloudflared, a file named svchost.exe written under a user's Documents folder, or process execution of cloudflared.exe or a Documents-located svchost.exe.

Detects instances where 'TieringEngineService.exe' or 'MsMpEng.exe' (Windows Defender) create, modify, or rename executable, library, or system files within the 'C:\Windows\System32\' directory. This behavior is highly irregular as these processes should not be authoring binaries in protected system folders, and may indicate process masquerading, unauthorized persistence, or defense evasion.

Detects attempts to tamper with Microsoft Windows Defender configuration, specifically by modifying exclusion paths via PowerShell cmdlets (Add-MpPreference, Set-MpPreference), direct registry modifications, or forced Group Policy updates. It also monitors for the disabling of Tamper Protection via registry and the creation of scheduled tasks designed to apply Defender exclusions.

Detects the creation of Windows services immediately following a network logon event (Logon Type 3) using NTLM or Kerberos. The rule monitors for service names or file paths characteristic of PsExec-style remote execution tools, specifically focusing on suspicious paths (e.g., Temp, UNC paths) or file extensions (e.g., .bat, .ps1, .tmp) used by attackers to execute payloads laterally.
