Detects instances where the ESET Remote Administrator Agent (ERAAgent.exe) modifies registry keys related to Windows network security settings, such as LSA policies, NullSession pipes/shares, or server/workstation auto-sharing. These settings can be manipulated to weaken Windows security posture, potentially facilitating lateral movement or credential access.
This rule detects unauthorized attempts to modify CrowdStrike Falcon sensor exclusion registry keys or commands involving DLL loading techniques that may indicate evasion preparation, specifically referencing potential FalconFlank-related activities. It filters out legitimate management activity from known service accounts, SCCM, and the CrowdStrike Falcon agent itself.
This rule monitors for modifications to the PostgreSQL configuration file 'pg_hba.conf', specifically looking for changes that would enable 'trust' authentication, followed by successful database logins using that method within one hour. This behavior is indicative of an attacker modifying authentication rules to gain unauthorized, passwordless access to a database.
Detects attempts to modify, disable, or exclude paths and processes from Microsoft Defender Antivirus using legitimate administrative utilities such as PowerShell, cmd, sc, and netsh. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to evade security monitoring.
This rule detects instances where LockAppHost.exe or a variation of it (likely used as a proxy) initiates processes or command-line arguments that interact with Windows services, scheduled tasks, or Windows Defender configurations. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to disable security features, suppress Windows updates, or manipulate system services to evade detection.
Detects the use of PowerShell to modify Windows Defender security settings by adding exclusion paths or processes. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to whitelist malicious files or processes to evade detection by the antivirus solution.
This rule detects the process 'ShieldCrash.exe' accessing or interacting with the Windows ELAM (Early Launch Anti-Malware) configuration directory. ELAM drivers are critical components for secure boot and early malware detection; unauthorized access or manipulation by unknown processes may indicate an attempt to tamper with security tools or evade endpoint protection.
Detects unexpected crashes or restarts of the Windows Defender service (MsMpEng.exe) occurring in temporal proximity to activities associated with the ShieldCrash PoC or tampering within the Windows Defender object manager namespace. This rule aims to identify potential exploitation attempts targeting Windows Defender, specifically correlating security service instability with known malicious indicators.
Detects the use of PowerShell commands to add directory exclusions to Windows Defender settings. Adversaries often use this technique to exclude directories in 'AppData' from being scanned by antivirus solutions to hide malicious activity, tools, or persistence mechanisms.
This rule detects attempts by users to disable or clear command line history logs for shell environments, including PowerShell (e.g., modifying PSReadLine history) and Unix-like shells (e.g., unset HISTFILE, setting HISTSIZE to 0, or disabling history collection). Such actions are frequently performed by adversaries to hinder incident response and forensic analysis by obscuring their post-exploitation activity.
Detects modifications to Windows Registry keys intended to disable System Restore, User Account Control (UAC), or automatic Windows Updates, which is indicative of an attacker attempting to impair system defenses or inhibit recovery capabilities.
This rule detects attempts to disable, terminate, or misconfigure security software, including antivirus, EDR, and endpoint protection solutions, by monitoring the execution of system administration binaries (such as taskkill, net, sc, wmic, powershell) with command-line arguments indicating service or process stopping, deletion, or configuration changes related to security-specific product names.
This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with Microsoft Defender security settings by creating or managing scheduled tasks that modify Defender exclusion paths. It correlates process execution (specifically schtasks.exe or PowerShell commands used for setting exclusions) with Windows Registry events that modify the Microsoft Defender exclusion path registry keys, flagging suspicious activity within a 15-minute window.
This rule detects suspicious file operations (creation, modification, or renaming) initiated by MsMpEng.exe (Microsoft Defender Antivirus) involving specific indicators related to ELAM (Early Launch Anti-Malware) or 'ShieldCrash' components. These indicators often suggest tampering attempts or the presence of tools designed to interfere with Defender's security operations by targeting its configuration, staging, or protected storage locations.

Detects unexpected crashes or restarts of the Windows Defender service (MsMpEng.exe) occurring in temporal proximity to activities associated with the ShieldCrash PoC or tampering within the Windows Defender object manager namespace. This rule aims to identify potential exploitation attempts targeting Windows Defender, specifically correlating security service instability with known malicious indicators.
Detects rapid, repeated execution of process control utilities (kill, strace, inotifywait, timeout) directed at monitored processes, often used by malware (such as 'redtail') to disable security monitoring, debugging, or auditing tools on Linux systems.
Detects attempts to modify, disable, or exclude paths and processes from Microsoft Defender Antivirus using legitimate administrative utilities such as PowerShell, cmd, sc, and netsh. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to evade security monitoring.
This rule detects potentially malicious activity involving the manipulation of Windows services using 'sc.exe' to stop or delete services, combined with the forceful termination of 'svchost.exe' processes via 'wmic.exe'. This pattern is often associated with adversaries attempting to disable security tools, logging agents, or other defensive mechanisms on an endpoint.
Detects the use of PowerShell to modify Windows Defender security settings by adding exclusion paths or processes. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to whitelist malicious files or processes to evade detection by the antivirus solution.
