Detects the use of the Windows command shell (cmd.exe) to execute a file deletion command following a forced delay using the 'choice' command. This technique is often used by adversaries to facilitate file deletion by introducing a pause, possibly to bypass file locks or to time execution during an intrusion.

Detects the suspicious loading of both 'FrameworkBase.dll' and 'sdkcra.dll' by the 'ReportDump.exe' process within a two-minute window. This behavior is often associated with the execution of specialized tools or potential post-exploitation activity where legitimate processes are abused to load specific modules.

Detects the execution of base64 encoded PowerShell commands initiated by conhost.exe with the --headless flag. The decoded command contains specific suspicious patterns, including accessing environment variables, reading file content, and deleting files, which is characteristic of malicious scripts attempting to stealthily interact with the environment.

Detects Bird Agent malware samples that exhibit characteristic behavior of binding configuration decryption to the Windows MachineGuid registry value. The rule identifies binaries that contain references to 'config.toml' and the Windows Cryptography registry key used to retrieve the MachineGuid, often used as a unique machine-based key for decryption.

Detects a suspicious sequence of events where a user engagement (voice/video call) involving themes of urgency or helpdesk interaction is closely followed by a high-risk administrative action (e.g., password reset, MFA device enrollment, or financial transfer) by the same user, where the communication session context differs from standard activity, indicative of a deepfake-enabled vishing attack.

Detects a suspicious sequence where an account undergoes a help-desk-initiated password or credential reset, followed shortly (within 30 minutes) by the registration of a new multi-factor authentication (MFA) device for that same account. This pattern is characteristic of social engineering attacks, such as those used by UNC3944/Scattered Spider, where an adversary impersonates a user to gain initial access and subsequently establishes persistence by adding an MFA device they control.

Detects the execution of LNK files that use a double extension (e.g., .pdf.lnk) to masquerade as PDF documents. This behavior is indicative of spear-phishing campaigns where malicious shortcuts are delivered via ZIP archives to execute hidden PowerShell commands for secondary stage downloader or persistence mechanisms.

Detects high-privileged Entra ID accounts successfully reaching the verification stage of the Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) process. While SSPR is automatically enabled for administrative accounts, this activity is anomalous and potentially indicates an attacker focusing on discovered privileged accounts after performing broader enumeration.

Detects Vidar Infostealer variants by identifying its unique per-build polymorphic virtual machine bytecode interpreter and custom ARX stream cipher. The rule uses a combination of high file entropy, lack of standard OS cryptographic API imports, and the presence of structurally invariant indirect jump-table dispatch patterns used in custom VM execution loops.

001
Detects login attempts to internet-exposed FortiGate SSL VPN or firewall management interfaces using suspicious, generic, or potentially leaked administrative account patterns such as fgt-*, FortiManager-*, or tech-support-*. These accounts typically suggest attempts to exploit default, hardcoded, or publicly shared credentials on network infrastructure.

This rule monitors endpoint telemetry (File, Process, and Network events) to identify activity associated with a pre-defined set of known malicious file hashes, IP addresses, and domains. It correlates these indicators to detect potential malware execution, persistence, or command-and-control communication on monitored devices.

Detects the execution of a process named 'msedge.exe' from the 'ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Telemetry' directory. Legitimate Microsoft Edge executables do not run from this location, suggesting an attempt to masquerade as the legitimate browser to bypass security controls or evade detection.

This rule detects processes flagged by SentinelOne's behavioral engine with an 'Evasion' indicator. Specifically, this captures behaviors where a process performs manual module or function export enumeration (such as traversing the PEB Ldr linked list or parsing the EAT) to resolve API addresses, a technique often used to avoid standard dynamic-resolution APIs like LoadLibrary or GetProcAddress in order to bypass EDR API hooking.

This rule detects modifications to Microsoft Defender antivirus exclusions. Adversaries often add paths or files to the exclusion list to prevent the detection of malicious tools or staging folders during cyberattacks. The rule monitors both command-line execution of PowerShell (Add-MpPreference/Set-MpPreference) and direct registry modifications related to Windows Defender paths.

Detects execution of potential MovieReaper loader components by monitoring for the creation of a specific, statically defined global mutex or patterns indicative of dynamic mutex naming conventions often used to ensure single-instance execution by malware.

This rule detects instances where Windows scripting engines (WScript or MSHTA) execute script files (WSF, VBS, HTA) which subsequently spawn a PowerShell process using encoded command arguments. This pattern is commonly used by adversaries to mask malicious payloads and bypass execution policy or simple command-line monitoring.

This rule detects Windows executable files that attempt to masquerade as legitimate software installers for Telegram, KeePass, or Pictory. These filenames and branding artifacts are associated with social engineering campaigns known to distribute malware families such as HEAVYGRAM and CRUDEEXCLUDE.

Detects the creation or modification of email inbox rules that perform suspicious actions such as deleting, moving to folders, or forwarding emails, specifically when those rules target keywords associated with sensitive financial or business communications like invoices, payments, or wire transfers. This behavior is indicative of an attacker attempting to hide evidence of a compromise or intercept sensitive business communications.
