This rule detects attempts to modify the SSH daemon configuration file (sshd_config) remotely over an established TCP connection to port 22. The detection is based on the presence of the string "sshd_config" within the network flow, indicating potential remote manipulation of SSH authentication settings.

This rule detects attempts to modify Identity Provider authentication settings within Microsoft Graph. Specifically, it looks for HTTP PATCH requests to the 'authentication' endpoint on 'graph.microsoft.com'. This activity could indicate an attacker attempting to alter authentication mechanisms, potentially for persistence or to facilitate further access.

This rule detects attempts to push firmware or bootkit images to a device via a remote SSH session. It specifically looks for the commands 'dd if=' and '/dev/' within TCP traffic directed to port 22 (SSH), indicating an attempt to write data directly to a device file, which is a common method for flashing firmware or installing bootkits.

This rule detects an unusually high number of registry access events initiated by common Windows system utilities such as 'reg.exe', 'regsvcs.exe', or 'regasm.exe' within a one-hour window. A count of 5 or more registry access events from these processes is considered suspicious and may indicate malicious activity like persistence, defense evasion, or privilege escalation through registry modification.

This rule detects changes to the domain password policy by monitoring Windows Security Event ID 4739. It summarizes these events by the user who made the change and the time, providing an hourly count of policy modifications. This can help identify unauthorized or suspicious alterations to critical security policies.

Detects the creation of a firewall rule using 'netsh.exe' or PowerShell ('New-NetFirewallRule') that includes the deceptive name 'Microsoft.Windows.CloudExperienceHost'. This specific naming convention is associated with the BLUERABBIT backdoor, which uses it to allow inbound VNC remote access.

This rule detects unusual logon activity for service accounts. It identifies service accounts by looking for a dollar sign ($) at the end of the username. The rule then counts logons, unique IP addresses, and unique computers for these service accounts within one-hour bins. An alert is triggered if a service account has 10 or more logons or logs in from 5 or more unique IP addresses within that hour, indicating potential abuse or compromise.

Identifies ScreenConnect client service execution initiated by trusted system processes (dfsvc.exe, services.exe) while referencing suspicious top-level domains (.top, .info, .site, .tk, .xyz, .pw, .ml, .club, .cf, ws) in the command line. This activity may indicate unauthorized remote access deployment or abuse of legitimate remote access tools.

This rule detects various stages of a cryptojacking campaign, as described by Microsoft, involving initial access via autorun.dll sideloading, silent MSI installations, execution of RuntimeHost.exe from suspicious locations, scheduled task creation for persistence, .NET process hollowing, Windows Defender exclusions, and persistence via Startup folder shortcuts and Registry Run keys. The campaign leverages ScreenConnect for remote access and .NET utilities for process hollowing, ultimately leading to GPU mining cryptojacking.

This rule detects potential tampering with Conditional Access Policies in Azure Active Directory by monitoring for multiple update, delete, or add operations on policies containing 'Conditional Access' in their display name within a one-hour window. This could indicate an adversary attempting to weaken security controls to maintain access or bypass MFA.

Detects the creation of scheduled tasks that use `schtasks.exe` to execute `rundll32.exe`. This is a common technique used by attackers for persistence and to execute malicious DLLs, often to bypass application whitelisting or other security controls.

This rule detects suspicious process creations where common system processes (svchost.exe, explorer.exe, lsass.exe, winlogon.exe) act as parent processes for scripting or command-line interpreters (powershell.exe, cmd.exe, cscript.exe, wscript.exe) and the child process runs with a low or untrusted integrity level. This pattern can indicate process injection or other forms of malicious execution where an attacker attempts to hide their activity by masquerading as legitimate system processes.

This rule detects suspicious modifications to registry keys under 'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies' where the registry value data contains '.exe' or '.dll'. Such changes, especially multiple occurrences within a short timeframe (3 or more changes within an hour), can indicate ransomware activity attempting to alter file associations or execution policies to maintain persistence or execute malicious payloads.

Detects the execution of cmstp.exe with the '/s' flag, which indicates a silent installation. This behavior is often abused by adversaries to proxy execution of malicious code, bypass application control, or bypass User Account Control (UAC).

This rule detects the creation of suspicious child processes by 'lsass.exe' on Windows systems. LSASS (Local Security Authority Subsystem Service) is a critical Windows process responsible for enforcing security policies. Under normal circumstances, LSASS should not spawn common command-line interpreters or system utilities like cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or rundll32.exe. Such activity is highly indicative of post-exploitation behavior, potentially following a successful compromise like the referenced CVE-2026-41089 Netlogon RCE, where an attacker might use LSASS to execute further commands or tools.

Detects the execution of nested, hidden, and bypassed PowerShell sessions spawned by cmd.exe, typically launched from a Startup LNK file. This behavior is associated with the SHADOW-EARTH-066 campaign, which uses specific command-line arguments for evasion and loads payloads from C:\ProgramData\ using Invoke-Expression or iex.
