205 detections

Detects automated reconnaissance and enumeration of sensitive web application paths (admin, config, environment files, etc.) from a single source IP. The rule identifies high-frequency request patterns that target specific non-public surface areas while excluding known search engine crawlers and monitoring bots.

This rule detects potential automated web scraping activity by identifying high-volume, repetitive network requests directed towards domains identified as government (.gov) or military (.mil). It correlates these network patterns with the execution of common browser automation frameworks (e.g., Puppeteer, Playwright) or headless browsers, indicating a likely coordinated scraping operation or bot activity.

Detects usage of the 'finger' utility via command line within scripts or batch files, or network connections originating from the 'finger' process on port 79 to non-internal destinations. This activity is commonly associated with internal network reconnaissance to gather user information or system details.

Detects high-frequency requests for 'tools/list' from a single source IP across multiple unique destination hosts. This pattern is indicative of a breadth-first scan attempting to identify reachable Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, rather than typical legitimate client-to-server communication.

102
This rule detects high-volume, potentially automated POST requests to specific WordPress plugin endpoints (Super Forms and Elementor Pro) used for form submissions and file uploads. A high frequency of these requests from a single source within a short timeframe suggests active reconnaissance or exploitation attempts against these vulnerable components.

This rule monitors web server logs (IIS, W3C, and Azure Application Gateway) for incoming traffic that matches known malicious or automated vulnerability scanners, as well as requests for common system fingerprinting paths (such as /server-status or /.git/config). The rule aggregates these hits by source IP address to identify potential active reconnaissance or vulnerability scanning attempts.

Detects anomalous, high-frequency inbound TCP connection attempts to port 102 (S7comm), which is used by Siemens S7 PLCs. This behavior is indicative of automated network scanning or reconnaissance targeting industrial control system (ICS) infrastructure.

This rule monitors for active reconnaissance or scanning behavior by detecting a single source IP interacting with a high number of distinct ports/hosts within a short time frame (NetworkScan) or accessing a high number of distinct URI paths/404 errors (WebContentScan).

706
Detects potential web reconnaissance or scanning activity against Microsoft IIS servers. The rule identifies suspicious behavior by monitoring for high frequencies of distinct URI requests, excessive 404 Not Found status codes indicative of path brute-forcing, and the presence of known security scanning user-agents.

104
Detects anomalous DNS activity characterized by either unauthorized DNS zone transfer (AXFR/IXFR) requests or aggressive subdomain enumeration patterns from external IP addresses. This rule monitors for high volumes of non-standard DNS queries or distinct subdomain lookups within a 15-minute window, which are common precursors to reconnaissance activities.

Detects anomalous activity where a user account experiences access denials across a high number of distinct applications (>= 5) within a 15-minute window via Zscaler Private Access. This pattern often indicates unauthorized exploration, directory probing, or automated credential testing against enterprise resources.

Detects Abyssos RAT modules (DCFINDER, VULNSCAN, ELEVATE_SYS_TOKEN, RDPWRAP) by requiring a shared XOR/AES-CBC key alongside a temp-folder write using a module-specific short prefix (dcf, vul, plg, rdp) that is followed by execution via an anomalous export function name (abyss or the module-specific Get*Text/Json exports)
