Detects TTPs associated with the HazyBeacon backdoor, used by the threat cluster CL-STA-1020. This rule identifies the creation of a specific persistence service and the execution of custom exfiltration tools from the C:\ProgramData directory. This threat also uses C2 communication via AWS Lambda URLs (e.g., *.lambda-url.*.on.aws) from the mscorsvw.exe process, which should be monitored via network logs.
Detects a network connection initiated by a binary to "api.mega.co.nz".
Attackers were seen abusing file sharing websites similar to "mega.nz" in order to upload/download additional payloads.

Detects an executable that isn't dropbox but communicates with the Dropbox API
Detects TTPs associated with the HazyBeacon backdoor, which has been observed targeting governmental entities in Southeast Asia. This rule identifies specific service creation for persistence, DLL sideloading of mscorsvc.dll, C2 communication via AWS Lambda URLs, and execution of known exfiltration tools from the C:\ProgramData directory.
This analytic detects outbound connections from Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense to commonly abused file sharing and pastebin-style hosting domains. It specifically looks for allowed connections where the URL matches a predefined list of known data hosting or temporary storage services. These platforms are frequently used by adversaries for malware delivery, data exfiltration, command and control (C2) beacons, or staging of encoded payloads. Identifying such connections can indicate potential abuse of legitimate infrastructure as part of an attacker's kill chain, suggesting tool staging, credential dumping, or outbound data leaks over HTTP(S).
Detects potential misuse of TryCloudflare tunnels for malware delivery or C2 communication by monitoring command-line arguments of common scripting and download tools. Adversaries leverage legitimate services like TryCloudflare to host malicious payloads and evade detection.

KQL Query from file: Defending against dot zip domain phishing attack
Detects network connections to known malicious domains and IPs associated with the Discord Invite Loop Hole campaign, including payload hosting, C2, and data exfiltration via Discord webhooks.
This query looks for users sharing access to files with external users.
This applies to SharePoint and OneDrive users.

Detects Rclone which is commonly used by ransomware groups for exfiltration
RClone Execution
Sigma
Detects execution of RClone utility for exfiltration as used by various ransomwares strains like REvil, Conti, FiveHands, etc
Detects DNS queries for "anonfiles.com", which is an anonymous file upload platform often used for malicious purposes
This query helps hunting for BEC - File sharing tactics - Dropbox
The following analytic detects Google Drive or Google Docs files shared externally from an internal domain. It leverages GSuite Drive logs, extracting and comparing the source and destination email domains to identify external sharing. This activity is significant as it may indicate potential data exfiltration by an attacker or insider. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information, data leakage, and potential compliance violations. Monitoring this behavior helps in early detection and mitigation of data breaches.
'Looks for file uploads actions to Azure File and Blob Storage from known VPS provider network ranges.
This is not an exhaustive list of VPS provider ranges but covers some of the most prevalent providers observed.'

Detects DNS queries for subdomains related to MEGA sharing website
Check all created files.
That does not have extension ps1, bat or cmd to avoid IT Pro scripts.
That are not copied to C:\ to detect all file share, external drive, data partition that are not allowed, etc.
This could help to detect malicious insider/user that has unencrypted data partition and that are using it to exfiltrate data even while removable devices & cloud storage is blocked.

'This hunting query will try to identify instances where a file us uploaded to file storage and then deleted
within a given threshold. By default the query will find instances where a file is uploaded and deleted within
5 minutes. This hunting query will help detect automated exfiltration.'

Intent:
- Use MTP capability to look for insider threat potential risk indicators
- Indicators would then serve as the building block for insider threat risk modeling in subsequent tools
Definition of Insider Threat:
"The potential for an individual who has or had authorized access to an organization's assets to use their access, either maliciously or unintentionally, to act in a way that could negatively affect the organization."
This collection of queries describes the different indicators that could be used to model and look for patterns suggesting an increased risk of an individual becoming a potential insider threat.
Note: no single indicator should be used as a lone determinant of insider threat activity, but should be part of an overall program to understand the increased risk to your organization's critical assets. This in turn is used to feed an investigation by a formal insider threat program to look at the context associated with the whole person to understand the implication of a set of indicators.
