Detects the execution of PowerShell commands using 'Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath' initiated by the CRUDEEXCLUDE Delphi utility. This behavior is associated with threat actors staging directories for the deployment of HEAVYGRAM/SHADEGENES payloads.
Detects a suspicious sequence of PowerShell commands associated with HEAVYGRAM-related droppers. The rule identifies processes that attempt to bypass security protections by adding Windows Defender exclusion paths, followed by registry-based persistence mechanisms (Run keys) that target common malicious executables such as RuntimeSSH.exe or winappx.exe.
This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with or bypass Windows Defender by monitoring for files or processes named 'ShieldCrash' occurring in close temporal proximity to the creation or modification of files within Windows Defender's shadow or scan directories (BaseNamedObjects\Restricted\WD_SHADOW_ or WD_SCAN). This behavior is often associated with malware attempting to evade security detection.
Detects the execution of RatHat, a Go-based Android native daemon masquerading as 'liblocal-service.so'. The rule identifies the malware's use of ADB-derived shell commands to bypass Android Doze mode, prioritize background execution, and tamper with installed applications via pm (package manager) commands.
This rule detects the use of 'taskkill.exe' to terminate critical services, including security software (MsMpEng.exe), database processes (sql.exe, oracle.exe, sqlservr.exe), and common user applications (outlook.exe, onedrive.exe). This behavior is characteristic of the DragonForce ransomware, which disables protective services and applications before encryption to minimize interference and ensure successful file locking.
Detects the CRPx0 ransomware technique of unhooking ntdll.dll in memory. This is achieved by reading the ntdll.dll file from disk and overwriting the in-memory .text section with a clean, unhooked version to bypass EDR monitoring and execute direct syscalls.
Detects the termination of critical processes, including security software (MsMpEng.exe), database services (sql.exe, oracle.exe, sqlservr.exe), and office productivity applications (excel.exe, outlook.exe, winword.exe). The sudden termination of these processes can indicate unauthorized attempts to disable security controls, disrupt database operations, or interfere with end-user activity.
Detects the use of bcdedit.exe to modify boot configuration data to enable Safe Mode with Networking. This technique is used by Akira ransomware affiliates to potentially disable or impair EDR and other security tooling prior to deploying the ransomware payload.
Detects suspicious processes attempting to open security-critical DLLs like amsi.dll or ntdll.dll with potential write or execute access. This behavior is often associated with runtime patching techniques used to disable or evade AMSI (Antimalware Scan Interface) and ETW (Event Tracing for Windows) monitoring, which are common defensive evasion tactics.
Detects in-memory modification of the ntdll.dll module to patch EtwEventWrite or EtwEventWriteFull functions, a technique used by adversaries to evade Windows event tracing and suppress telemetry. The rule specifically targets activities originating from w3wp.exe, consistent with behavior observed in IIS-hosted deployments like GhostContainer.
Detects the deletion of registry keys or values associated with Google Chrome's extension settings preferences. This activity may indicate an attempt to disable installed extensions or tamper with browser security configurations.
Detects in-memory tampering of the EtwEventWrite function within ntdll.dll, a technique commonly used by malware and loaders to disable Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) telemetry to avoid detection by security products.
Detects in-memory tampering of the EtwEventWrite function within ntdll.dll, a technique commonly used by malware and loaders to disable Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) telemetry to avoid detection by security products.
This rule detects attempts to tamper with the Anti-Malware Scan Interface (AMSI) or suspicious modifications to the memory of common scripting and proxy processes (powershell.exe, pwsh.exe, rundll32.exe, mshta.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe). Such activities are often indicative of an adversary attempting to bypass security detection mechanisms to execute malicious code or hide their presence.
This rule monitors for suspicious process execution patterns that suggest system tampering, security tool evasion, or data concealment. It detects activities such as clearing event logs, modifying Windows Defender preferences (exclusions/real-time monitoring), creating suspicious scheduled tasks, deleting volume shadow copies, and using PowerShell for credential or system state manipulation.
This rule monitors for a collection of adversarial behaviors on Windows systems, including persistence mechanisms via scheduled tasks and registry run keys, tampering with security services (VSS, Windows Defender), credential harvesting attempts (LSASS memory), log and history clearing, and external network communication to known IP geolocation services.
Detects the loading of amsi.dll or clr.dll into the charmap.exe process. Adversaries often inject malicious code into legitimate, system-native processes like charmap.exe to bypass detection and perform in-memory patching of security controls, such as disabling AMSI (Antimalware Scan Interface).
Detects a suspicious sequence of activity involving persistence via Registry Run keys (specifically targeting SMQDService or winappx entries) followed by modifications to Microsoft Defender configuration (adding exclusions via PowerShell) within a two-hour window on the same device.
Detects a suspicious sequence of activity involving persistence via Registry Run keys (specifically targeting SMQDService or winappx entries) followed by modifications to Microsoft Defender configuration (adding exclusions via PowerShell) within a two-hour window on the same device.
Detects a suspicious sequence of activity involving persistence via Registry Run keys (specifically targeting SMQDService or winappx entries) followed by modifications to Microsoft Defender configuration (adding exclusions via PowerShell) within a two-hour window on the same device.
This rule detects the addition of Microsoft Defender exclusions via PowerShell cmdlets (Add-MpPreference, Set-MpPreference) or direct Registry key modifications, occurring within two hours of a new autorun persistence entry being created on the same device. This behavior is indicative of a persistence-then-evasion sequence often used to ensure malicious tools remain undetected.
