Detects the creation of recent file shortcuts (.lnk) that point to disk image files (.iso, .img, .vhd, .vhdx). This activity is often observed in phishing attacks where adversaries use these file types to deliver malware. The rule specifically looks for these shortcuts within the 'Recent' folder of a user's profile, indicating that the user has recently interacted with such a file.

Detects the creation or modification of registry keys related to printer drivers that contain specific strings associated with Mimikatz or the PrinterNightmare vulnerability (CVE-2021-1675, CVE-2021-34527). The rule looks for 'QMS 810' or 'mimikatz' in printer driver paths, or a combination of 'legitprinter' and printer environment paths, or specific strings like 'Gentil Kiwi', 'mimikatz printer', or 'Kiwi Legit Printer' in registry objects related to printing.

This rule detects the creation of suspicious shell processes or system utilities spawned by the Java utility 'keytool.exe'. This behavior is often indicative of exploitation, such as the CVE-2021-40539 vulnerability in ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus, where attackers leverage keytool to execute arbitrary commands. The rule specifically looks for 'keytool.exe' as the parent process and a wide range of common Windows and Linux shell/utility executables as the child process.

This rule detects the execution of 'net.exe' or 'net1.exe' with a password provided directly in the command line. This is a security risk as it exposes credentials and can be used for lateral movement, persistence, or privilege escalation. The rule specifically looks for the 'use' keyword, a colon followed by an asterisk and a backslash (indicating a password field), and '/USER:* *' to identify password usage in the command line arguments.

Detects cases where an ISO file is opened within an archiving application like 7-Zip or WinRAR. This behavior is often associated with phishing campaigns where threat actors embed small ISO files in archives as email attachments to bypass security filters and protective measures (e.g., Mark-of-the-Web).

This rule detects the execution of arbitrary shell commands via the '.SettingContent-ms' file type. These files, introduced in Windows 10, are XML-based shortcuts to Windows settings pages. Adversaries can manipulate these files to execute malicious commands, bypassing typical execution controls. The rule specifically looks for process creation events where the command line contains '.SettingContent-ms' and excludes legitimate calls to 'immersivecontrolpanel'.

This rule detects modifications to the Windows Registry key associated with "TrustRecords" for Microsoft Office applications. These trust records are created when a user enables macros in a document, indicating that the document's source is trusted. Adversaries often leverage malicious macros in documents as an initial access vector. Monitoring changes to this registry path can help identify when macros are being enabled, potentially by a user interacting with a malicious document.
