Detects suspicious processes including shells spawnd from WinRM host process
Detects potential web shell execution from the ScreenConnect server process.
Detects interactive console logons to Server Systems
Detects the addition of a new member to the local administrator group, which could be legitimate activity or a sign of privilege escalation activity
Detects suspicious Hangul Word Processor (Hanword) sub processes that could indicate an exploitation
'Often times after the initial compromise the attackers create inbox rules to delete emails that contain certain keywords.
This is done so as to limit ability to warn compromised users that they've been compromised. Below is a sample query that tries to detect this.

In this query, we hunt for inbound emails having URLs from QR codes and suspicious keywords in subject
'This rule identifies a web request to a URL that holds a file type, including .ps1, .bat, .vbs, and .scr that can be harmful if downloaded. This analytic rule uses [ASIM](https://aka.ms/AboutASIM) and supports any built-in or custom source that supports the ASIM WebSession schema (ASIM WebSession Schema)'
'This query could identify critical user management operations like user registration(Microsoft Entra ID Multi-Factor Authentication & self-service password reset (SSPR)) authentication by admin account followed by attempts to stop System Restore activity. Stopping system restore prevents from recovering data by going back to a restore point. The operations could be an indication of attackers trying to maintain persistence, move laterally with attempts to stop system restore point that could point to a potential ransomware attack.'
'This script identifies password changes or resets across multiple host and cloud sources. Account manipulation, including password changes and resets, may help adversaries maintain access to credentials and permission levels.'
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.

'This script identifies rare domain accounts accessing cloud resources by examining logs. You can lower the domainLimit value to see domains with fewer access attempts. For example, set domainLimit = 2 to see domains with 2 or fewer access attempts.'
'Identifies when a new user is granted access and starts creating resources in Azure. This can help you identify rogue or malicious user behavior.'
'This query combines different SQL alerts with CommonSecurityLogs and AuditLogs helping analysts /investigate any possible SQL related attacks faster

'This query examines Microsoft Entra ID sign-ins and identifies anomalous changes in a user's location profile. A variation joins results back onto the original sign-in data to review the location set with each identified user in tabular form.'
'Detects a Service Principal being assigned an app role that has sensitive access such as Mail.Read.
A threat actor who compromises a Service Principal may assign it an app role to allow it to access sensitive data, or to perform other actions.
Ensure that any assignment to a Service Principal is valid and appropriate.

This query helps in reviewing top policies for admin overrides (Allow/Block)
'Query for new sign-ins from stale/inactive accounts. UEBA filters based on ActivityInsights. Results for accounts created in the last 7 days are filtered out.'
This query looks for users performing file deletion activities. Spikes in file deletion observed from risky sign-in sessions are flagged here.
