'Identifies when a recently created Group was added to a privileged built in domain local group or global group such as the Enterprise Admins, Cert Publishers or DnsAdmins. Be sure to verify this is an expected addition.

The following analytic detects a process loading a version.dll file from a directory other than %windir%\system32 or %windir%\syswow64. This detection leverages Sysmon EventCode 7 to identify instances where an unsigned or improperly located version.dll is loaded. This activity is significant as it is a common technique used in ransomware and APT malware campaigns, including Brute Ratel C4, to execute malicious code via DLL side loading. If confirmed malicious, this could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, maintain persistence, and potentially compromise the target host.
'Extracts MDATP Alert for a web shell being placed on the server and then enriches this event with information from W3CIISLog to idnetigy the Attacker that placed the shell'
'Identifies accounts that have been added to a PIM managed privileged group'

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, SQL Server abuse.
SQL Server offers a vast array of tools for automating tasks, exporting data, and running scripts. These legitimate tools can be repurposed by attackers. Because there are so many powerful commands an attacker might exploit, hunting for malicious activity involving SQL Server can be complicated.
This query detects instances of a SQL Server process launching a shell to run one or more suspicious commands.

Detects OilRig schedule task persistence as reported by Nyotron in their March 2018 report
Detects the deactivation and disabling of the Scheduled defragmentation task as seen by Slingshot APT group
This rule detects the execution of the extended storage procedure backdoor named Maggie in the context of Microsoft SQL server
'Identifies attempts to modify registry ACL to evade security solutions. In the Solorigate attack, the attackers were found modifying registry permissions so services.exe cannot access the relevant registry keys to start the service.
The detection leverages Security Event as well as MDE data to identify when specific security services registry permissions are modified.
Only some portions of this detection are related to Solorigate, it also includes coverage for some common tools that perform this activity.

Detects suspicious print spool service (spoolsv.exe) child processes.
Detects the execution of SharpSuccessor, a tool used to exploit the BadSuccessor attack for privilege escalation in WinServer 2025 Active Directory environments.
Successful usage of this tool can let the attackers gain the domain admin privileges by exploiting the BadSuccessor vulnerability.
