Detects Python compiled bytecode (.pyc) files that have been renamed to .cat, a common Windows Security Catalog extension. This is a masquerading technique often used by backdoors to evade detection and facilitate malicious loader execution.

Detects a classic process injection technique where an external process attempts to gain high-level access (OpenProcess with 0x1F0FFF) to charmap.exe. This activity is often a precursor to further injection steps such as VirtualAllocEx, WriteProcessMemory, and CreateRemoteThread, a behavior consistent with malicious payloads like AsyncRAT executed via an abused AutoIT interpreter.

Detects the execution of processes named 'UpdateAssistant.exe', 'AppUpdateHelper.exe', or 'SysMaintenance.exe' from specific common application directories that are either unsigned or lack a valid Microsoft digital signature. This pattern is commonly used by adversaries to masquerade malicious binaries as legitimate system update components to evade detection.

Detects PowerShell or PowerShell ISE spawned directly from Windows Explorer (explorer.exe, covering both Start-menu launches and the Run dialog abused by ClickFix) whose command line carries a genuine obfuscation/evasion signal - true -EncodedCommand/-e usage, a hidden/minimized window flag, or a remote download cradle (IEX, Invoke-WebRequest, DownloadString, certutil, mshta, etc.) - while excluding invocations that point at an on-disk script file under a standard install path, since ClickFix payloads are inline one-liners rather than references to a local .ps1. Bare -NoProfile/-NoLogo flags no longer trigger alone, since they are common in legitimate automation.

Detects network traffic where the SilverFox malware relay (api.php) attempts to evade detection by returning a legitimate WeChat installer download link as a decoy response, rather than its intended malicious payload, when communicating with external analysis environments.

Detects the execution of batch files from temporary directories that employ command obfuscation techniques such as environment variable substring expansion, or which execute with a hidden window in conjunction with chained system utilities commonly associated with malicious activities (e.g., curl, tar, schtasks). This behavior is often indicative of staged payload delivery and execution.

Detects malicious file system activity where the legitimate Python interpreter (python.exe) is deleted and replaced or renamed to a deceptive filename (codeflush.exe) within the 'C:\Users\Public\Music\MusicLibrariesPackage' directory. This technique is used by threat actors, including APT37, to mask the execution of Python-based backdoors and evade detection.

Detects the execution of the Pester framework's Build.bat script, which is being abused as a LOLBAS (Living Off the Land Binary and Script) technique. This activity is typically characterized by being launched from an LNK file, often indicating a malicious dropper or secondary stage payload delivery.

This rule detects the execution of a suspicious, specifically named executable (ogftogcyiblzjccmcbnw.exe) originating from a temporary folder, or the creation/access of a related configuration file (kojuyn.ini) within the same temp directory. This pattern is consistent with the delivery and execution of malicious tools like AsyncRAT or similar threats that often use obfuscated filenames and localized configuration files within temporary user paths.

This rule monitors successful sign-in activity specifically targeting identified critical banking applications. It aggregates login counts, the number of unique users, and the unique IP addresses accessing these applications over the last 24 hours to provide visibility into usage patterns.

Detects the use of the device code authentication protocol in Azure Sign-in logs, which is a common vector used in Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) phishing attacks to hijack OAuth tokens.

Detects successful Azure AD sign-in events where the session is marked as compliant or trusted by Conditional Access policies, but simultaneously flagged by Identity Protection as originating from an anonymized IP (e.g., residential proxy, VPN). This indicates an adversary has bypassed location-based Conditional Access controls, likely in the context of an Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) phishing attack.

Detects high-volume AI/LLM inference or GPU-compute provisioning activity from a single identity within a short duration. This behavior is indicative of LLMJacking, where compromised cloud credentials are used to spin up unauthorized, resource-intensive AI workloads for profit.

Detects the execution of PowerShell with common obfuscation or stealth-related flags (e.g., -enc, -nop, -w hidden) when initiated by CMD or from a LNK file, particularly when originating from Windows Explorer. This is a common pattern for malicious file execution and dropper activity.

Detects instances where PowerShell.exe acts as a parent process or initiator for potentially suspicious process injections into common host processes including csc.exe, chrome.exe, msedge.exe, or SearchIndexer.exe. This activity is often associated with code execution or persistence mechanisms where PowerShell injects malicious logic into other processes.

Detects long PowerShell command lines that perform in-memory assembly loading, often utilizing compression (GzipStream), encryption (Aes), or base64 decoding (FromBase64String). This combination is highly indicative of malicious payloads attempting to load reflective DLLs or executables directly into memory to evade file-based detection.

Detects anomalous remote access or VPN login activity for a user account, characterized by either logins from multiple distinct countries or logins occurring during off-hours (between 8:01 PM and 5:59 AM). This rule helps identify potential credential abuse where valid accounts are being leveraged from unexpected locations or times.

Detects the use of the 'wevtutil.exe' utility to clear Windows Event Logs. This is a common technique used by adversaries to disrupt logging and evade detection of their actions on a host. The rule specifically monitors for the 'cl' (clear-log) command applied to sensitive operational channels, triggering when multiple clearing operations are detected within a 5-minute window.
