The analytic detects the use of the curl command contacting suspicious remote domains, such as s3.amazonaws.com, which is indicative of Command and Control (C2) activity or downloading further implants. This detection leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process execution logs and command-line arguments. This activity is significant as it may indicate the presence of MacOS adware or other malicious software attempting to establish persistence or exfiltrate data. If confirmed malicious, this could allow attackers to maintain control over the compromised system and deploy additional payloads.

The following analytic detects the creation of screen capture files by the Braodo stealer malware. This stealer is known to capture screenshots of the victim's desktop as part of its data theft activities. The detection focuses on identifying unusual screen capture activity, especially when images are saved in directories often used by malware, such as temporary or hidden folders. Monitoring for these files helps to quickly identify malicious screen capture attempts, allowing security teams to respond and mitigate potential information exposure before sensitive data is compromised.

The following analytic detects the high-frequency exfiltration of archive files via HTTP POST requests. It leverages HTTP stream logs to identify specific archive file headers within the request body. This activity is significant as it often indicates data exfiltration by APTs or trojan spyware after data collection. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to the unauthorized transfer of sensitive data to an attacker’s command and control server, potentially resulting in severe data breaches and loss of confidential information.

The following analytic detects multiple executions of Living off the Land (LOLbin) binaries on macOS within a short period. It leverages osquery to monitor process events and identifies commands such as "find", "crontab", "screencapture", "openssl", "curl", "wget", "killall", and "funzip". This activity is significant as LOLbins are often used by attackers to perform malicious actions while evading detection. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, escalate privileges, or persist within the environment, posing a significant security risk.

The following analytic detects the creation of an AWS DataSync task, which could indicate potential data exfiltration. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs to identify the `CreateTask` event from the DataSync service. This activity is significant because attackers can misuse DataSync to transfer sensitive data from a private AWS location to a public one, leading to data compromise. If confirmed malicious, this could result in unauthorized access to sensitive information, causing severe data breaches and compliance violations.

The following analytic detects suspicious usage of BitLockerToGo.exe, which has been observed being abused by Lumma stealer malware. The malware leverages this legitimate Windows utility to manipulate registry keys, search for cryptocurrency wallets and credentials, and exfiltrate sensitive data. This activity is significant because BitLockerToGo.exe provides functionality for viewing, copying, and writing files as well as modifying registry branches - capabilities that the Lumma stealer exploits for malicious purposes. If confirmed malicious, this could indicate an active data theft campaign targeting cryptocurrency wallets, browser credentials, and password manager archives. The detection focuses on identifying BitLockerToGo.exe execution patterns that deviate from normal system behavior.

This detection identifies file creation events associated with the installation of the Medusa rootkit, a userland LD_PRELOAD-based rootkit known for deploying shared objects, loader binaries, and configuration files into specific system directories. These files typically facilitate process hiding, credential theft, and backdoor access. Monitoring for such file creation patterns enables early detection of rootkit deployment before full compromise.

Detects (failed) outbound connection attempts to internet-facing SMB servers. This could be a sign of potential exploitation attempts of CVE-2023-23397, which is a critical elevation of privilege vulnerability in Microsoft Outlook. The vulnerability allows an attacker to send a specially crafted email that, when opened, causes the victim's system to connect to an attacker-controlled SMB share and leak the victim's NTLM hash. This rule specifically looks for SMB client connectivity events (Event IDs 30803, 30804, 30806) where the destination IP address is not a private or loopback address, indicating an attempt to connect to an external SMB server.

This analytic is used to identify when a removable media device is attached to a machine and then a process is executed from the same drive letter assigned to the removable media device. Adversaries and Insider Threats may use removable media devices for several malicious activities, including initial access, execution, and exfiltration.

Detects DNS queries containing patterns associated with Kerberos coercion attacks via DNS object spoofing.
The pattern "1UWhRCAAAAA..BAAAA" is a base64-encoded signature that corresponds to a marshaled CREDENTIAL_TARGET_INFORMATION structure.
Attackers can use this technique to coerce authentication from victim systems to attacker-controlled hosts.
It is one of the strong indicators of a Kerberos coercion attack, where adversaries manipulate DNS records
to spoof Service Principal Names (SPNs) and redirect authentication requests like CVE-2025-33073.

This rule detects suspicious access to files with sensitive extensions commonly associated with email archives, database files, memory dumps, and remote desktop connection files. Monitoring access to these file types can indicate attempts at data collection, credential dumping, or lateral movement preparation by adversaries.
