Detects changes to the AMSI come server registry key in order disable AMSI scanning functionalities. When AMSI attempts to starts its COM component, it will query its registered CLSID and return a non-existent COM server. This causes a load failure and prevents any scanning methods from being accessed, ultimately rendering AMSI useless
Detect the creation of a service with a service binary located in a suspicious directory
Detects disabling Windows Defender Tamper Protection
Detects disabling Windows Defender Exploit Guard Network Protection
Detects changes to Microsoft Office protected view registry keys with which the attacker disables this feature.
Detects usage of Windows Input Method Editor (IME) keyboard layout feature, which allows an attacker to load a DLL into the process after sending the WM_INPUTLANGCHANGEREQUEST message.
Before doing this, the client needs to register the DLL in a special registry key that is assumed to implement this keyboard layout. This registry key should store a value named "Ime File" with a DLL path.
IMEs are essential for languages that have more characters than can be represented on a standard keyboard, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

Detects changes to the "DisableHypervisorEnforcedPagingTranslation" registry value. Where the it is set to "1" in order to disable the Hypervisor Enforced Paging Translation feature.
Detects registry modifications that disable Privacy Settings Experience
Detects disabling Windows Defender PUA protection
Detects applications being added to the "allowed applications" list of exploit guard in order to bypass controlled folder settings
Detects the disabling of the Windows Defender eventlog as seen in relation to Lockbit 3.0 infections
Detects changes to the HypervisorEnforcedCodeIntegrity registry key and the "Enabled" value being set to 0 in order to disable the Hypervisor Enforced Code Integrity feature. This allows an attacker to load unsigned and untrusted code to be run in the kernel

Detects when an attacker or tool disables the Windows Defender service (WinDefend) via the registry
Detects changes to the registry value "PythonFunctionWarnings" that would prevent any warnings or alerts from showing when Python functions are about to be executed.
Threat actors could run malicious code through the new Microsoft Excel feature that allows Python to run within the spreadsheet.

Detects the load of RstrtMgr DLL (Restart Manager) by an uncommon 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.

Robbinhood is ransomware that has been involved in several high-profile incidents, including a 2019 attack on the city of Baltimore, Maryland. Robbinhood operators often employ a distinctive defense evasion technique, where they load a vulnerable driver on to a target and exploit it, in order to turn off security software -- essentially using the driver as malware.
The following query detects a late stage of this technique, when the operator is issuing commands to turn off the driver.
For a query that detects an earlier stage of this technique, see Detect loading of vulnerable drivers by Robbinhood ransomware campaign.

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Cypherpunk ransomware leaves wake of tampered AVs.
Cypherpunk is a human-operated ransomware campaign named after the unusual .cypherpunk extension given to encrypted files. The attackers often used PSEXESVC, a service that helps the PsExe.exe utility run commands on a remote device. Both PSEXESVC and PsExe.exe are legitimate parts of Windows; however, they can be repurposed by attackers to perform malicious actions.
The query below can find instances of PSEXESVC being used to launch batch files, as often occurred in Cypherpunk attacks.

LemonDuck is an actively updated and robust malware primarily known for its botnet and cryptocurrency mining objectives. First discovered in 2019, LemonDuck has since adopted more sophisticated behavior and escalated its operations in 2021. Today, beyond using resources for its traditional bot and mining activities, LemonDuck steals credentials, removes security controls, spreads via emails, moves laterally, and ultimately drops more tools for human-operated activity.
