This rule detects an unusually high number of web search queries (identified by 'search' or 'query' in the URI) originating from a single IP address within a one-hour window. A threshold of 100 or more queries triggers the alert. This behavior could indicate automated activity such as web scraping, reconnaissance, or a denial-of-service attempt against the search functionality.

This rule detects potential Agent Tesla malware activity by correlating process execution with network connections. It looks for processes named 'agenttesla.exe', 'atsvc.exe', or 'atservice.exe' that execute with command-line arguments indicative of data exfiltration (e.g., 'smtp', 'ftp', 'http.post', 'exfil'). The rule then correlates these process events with outbound network connections to non-private IP addresses, flagging instances where multiple process runs and multiple network connections occur within a 30-minute window.

Detects the execution of `gh auth token` which is used by the Shai-Hulud malware to steal the active GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT). This rule specifically looks for the `gh.exe` or `gh` process executing with command-line arguments containing both "auth" and "token".

This rule detects potential video stream exfiltration over HTTP POST. It specifically looks for HTTP POST requests with a large payload size (greater than 100,000 bytes) and the byte sequence '|52 49 46 46|' at the beginning of the file data, which corresponds to the 'RIFF' header commonly found in multimedia file formats like AVI and WAV. This combination suggests an attempt to upload or exfiltrate video or audio data.

This rule detects potential audio stream exfiltration using the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP). It specifically looks for UDP traffic with a packet size between 160 and 200 bytes, which is characteristic of some RTP audio streams. A threshold of 100 such packets from the same source within 10 seconds triggers the alert, indicating a sustained audio stream.

This rule detects the upload of a PNG image file over HTTP using a POST request. This could indicate an attacker exfiltrating screen captures, which aligns with MITRE ATT&CK technique T1113 (Screen Capture). The rule specifically looks for the HTTP POST method and the PNG file signature (89 50 4E 47) within the file data.

This rule detects suspicious NTLM network or remote interactive logon activity. It specifically looks for multiple distinct accounts logging in from the same device and remote IP address within a one-hour window, using NTLM authentication via NtLmSsp or Seclogon processes. This pattern can indicate credential stuffing, NTLM relay attacks, or other forms of credential misuse.

Detects the creation of archive files (zip, rar, 7z, tar.gz) by processes other than common archiving utilities. This could indicate data staging or preparation for exfiltration by an adversary.

Detects the export of Microsoft Teams messages, transcripts, recordings, and chat retrieval activities, particularly when performed via the Graph API. This rule identifies suspicious activity by looking for specific operation names in SaaS audit logs from Microsoft Teams and flags user agents commonly associated with automation tools (e.g., python-requests, axios, go-http, curl, wget, powershell, httpx, aiohttp, node) which could indicate post-compromise attackers using stolen tokens to silently export chat history.

This rule detects the creation or modification of Exchange transport rules or inbox rules that forward or redirect emails to external domains. It specifically looks for operations like 'New-TransportRule', 'Set-TransportRule', 'New-InboxRule', 'Set-InboxRule', 'Set-Mailbox', 'UpdateInboxRules', and 'Set-TransportConfig' where the destination is an email address outside of the organization's verified domains. This activity can indicate data exfiltration or an attempt to maintain persistence and collect sensitive information.

Identifies Node.js processes downloading the Bun runtime from GitHub Releases. This behavior was observed in the vpmdhaj npm supply chain attack, where Gen-2 stagers silently downloaded Bun to execute bundled credential harvesting payloads without an immediate C2 payload drop.

Detects the creation or modification of GitHub Actions workflow files designed to dump and exfiltrate repository secrets, a technique observed in the Mini Shai-Hulud supply chain attack. This rule specifically looks for file events in GitHub Actions workflow directories combined with command-line patterns indicative of secret exfiltration or the creation of a specific malicious workflow file ('codeql_analysis.yml') by scripting interpreters.

Detects a temporal pattern characteristic of CVE-2026-42897 XSS exploitation: an OWA user reads a message (via Bind, OpenMessage, or similar EWS/OWA endpoints), and within 60 seconds, the same session issues a POST request to create or modify an inbox rule. This rapid succession from the same session cookie indicates programmatic action (XSS-driven JavaScript) rather than human-driven workflow. The rule correlates events by client IP and username within a 60-second window.
