Detects when a non-root user modifies, creates, or renames files within common cron directories or the main crontab file on Linux systems. This activity can indicate an attempt to establish persistence or schedule malicious tasks.

This rule detects potential container escape attempts on Linux systems by monitoring suspicious file system access patterns to the host's root directory or process creation events involving 'mount', 'nsenter', or 'chroot' commands with parameters indicative of host interaction. Specifically, it looks for file operations on '/proc/1/root', '/proc/1/cwd', '/proc/1/exe', '/proc/1/fd', '/proc/1/ns', '/proc/1/environ', '/proc/1/mounts' or paths starting with '/host', '/hostroot', '/host-root', '/node-root'. It also flags 'mount' commands targeting '/proc/1/root', '/proc/1', 'nsenter', '--target 1', 'hostpath', or '/host', 'nsenter' commands with namespace manipulation arguments, and 'chroot' commands targeting '/proc/1/root', '/host', or '/hostroot'. These activities are commonly associated with adversaries trying to break out of a containerized environment to gain access to the underlying host.

This rule detects the creation and loading of the 'NSecKrnl.sys' driver file on a system. The filename is associated with potentially malicious or unauthorized kernel-level activity, often indicative of rootkit behavior or unauthorized persistence mechanisms.

This rule detects when the Microsoft Teams process (Teams.exe) creates an executable or installer file (.exe or .msi) in common user-writable directories such as AppData, Temp, or Users/Public. This behavior is indicative of potential malicious activity, as legitimate Teams application updates and add-ins typically reside in specific, protected subdirectories within the Teams folder structure.

Detects the use of legitimate administrative tools (regsvcs.exe, infinstall.exe, devcon.exe) being executed with command-line arguments indicative of driver or kernel-level installations (e.g., 'kernel', 'ring0', 'driver install'). This behavior is commonly associated with the installation of rootkits or the execution of Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks to gain kernel-mode privileges.

Detects modifications to the AdminSDHolder object in Active Directory via Windows Security Event ID 5136. The AdminSDHolder object maintains the security permissions for all objects protected by the AdminSDHolder process. Adversaries often modify this object to establish persistence and gain unauthorized access to highly privileged accounts within the domain.

Detects modifications to domain trust relationships, such as the creation of a new trust, removal of an existing trust, or changes to trusted domain information. Such events are monitored as they can indicate an adversary attempting to elevate privileges or establish persistence across a forest or multi-domain environment.

Detects users who modify their MFA settings (registration/update/delete) and subsequently perform privileged actions (such as adding role members or service principal credentials) within a short timeframe, while simultaneously observed active in communication applications like Teams, Zoom, or Webex. This behavior is indicative of potential account takeover where an adversary modifies authentication methods to gain persistent access, followed by privilege escalation.

This rule monitors for suspicious child processes (like cmd.exe, powershell.exe, wscript.exe, or rundll32.exe) spawned by dllhost.exe. Dllhost.exe is typically a legitimate Windows process for COM object hosting, and it spawning command-line interpreters or administrative utilities is often indicative of malicious activity, such as process injection or lateral movement.

Detects changes to the attributes of the AdminSDHolder object in Active Directory. The AdminSDHolder object is a template used by the Active Directory security descriptor propagator (SDProp) to enforce permissions on protected administrative groups. Modification of this object is a highly suspicious activity that can be used to establish persistence or grant excessive privileges by poisoning the security descriptors of all protected objects within the domain.

Detects modifications to Windows Registry keys commonly associated with COM hijacking. Attackers modify these keys to redirect legitimate system calls to malicious executables, achieving persistence and potential privilege escalation. This rule monitors for registry value creation or modification in keys related to shell open commands for MS-settings, MSC files, or executables.

Detects modifications to COM object InProcServer32 registry keys within the user's registry hive (HKEY_USERS). Attackers often hijack COM objects to achieve persistence by pointing them to malicious DLLs or OCX files. This rule specifically filters out common legitimate paths (Windows directories, Program Files) and known installers to reduce noise.

Detects successful user sign-ins from a country that has not been observed in the user's sign-in activity over the past 30 days. This baseline helps identify potentially compromised accounts by surfacing geographic anomalies.

Detects any modification (add, update, or delete) to Entra ID cross-tenant access settings. Adversaries may manipulate these trust configurations to weaken inbound security restrictions, establish unauthorized access between tenants, or facilitate cross-tenant impersonation.

This rule detects the creation of named pipes associated with known command-and-control (C2) frameworks, post-exploitation toolkits, and suspicious system activity. By filtering out common legitimate system processes and monitoring for specific pipe patterns (e.g., Cobalt Strike, Metasploit, PsExec, and sensitive RPC endpoints), the rule identifies potential lateral movement, remote execution, and post-exploitation communication channels.

Detects the execution of the LANDFALL spyware's SELinux policy manipulation helper (`l.so`). The spyware's loader (`b.so`) sets a `PRELOAD_PATH` environment variable pointing to `l.so` and uses `LD_PRELOAD` to inject another payload into the benign `/system/bin/id` process. This behavior is specific to the "interactive" execution mode of the spyware.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity within Azure Automation by monitoring for the creation or modification of runbooks and jobs, combined with the presence of suspicious command-line or script patterns in job stream output, such as credential harvesting (e.g., Get-AutomationPSCredential) or execution of web-based payloads (e.g., IEX, Invoke-WebRequest).
