An adversary may compress or encrypt data that is collected prior to exfiltration using 3rd party utilities
Detects execution of WinRAR in order to compress a file with a ".dmp"/".dump" extension, which could be a step in a process of dump file exfiltration.
Detects the execution of different compiled Windows binaries of the impacket toolset (based on names or part of their names - could lead to false positives)
An adversary may compress or encrypt data that is collected prior to exfiltration using 3rd party utilities
Detects the invocation of TabTip via CLSID as seen when JuicyPotatoNG is used on a system in brute force mode
Detects DNS query requests to "update.onelaunch.com". This domain is associated with the OneLaunch adware application.
When the OneLaunch application is installed it will attempt to get updates from this domain.

Detects usage of "rar" to add files to an archive for potential compression. An adversary may compress data (e.g. sensitive documents) that is collected prior to exfiltration in order to make it portable and minimize the amount of data sent over the network.
Detects the use of rar.exe, on the command line, to create an archive with password protection or with a specific compression level. This is pretty indicative of malicious actions.

Detects execution of WinRAR in order to compress a file with a ".dmp"/".dump" extension, which could be a step in a process of dump file exfiltration.
Once established within a system or network, an adversary may use automated techniques for collecting internal data.
Identify prior activity from this campaign using IOCs shared by Microsoft's Threat Intelligence Center, or MSTIC.

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Confluence and WebLogic abuse.
2019 has seen several seemingly related campaigns targeting Atlassian Confluence Server and Oracle WebLogic Server. Although these campaigns use different implants and delivery methods, they consistently use the same infrastructure, and exploit the same vulnerabilities.
The campaigns have specifically targeted:
1. CVE-2019-3396 - Software update
2. CVE-2019-2725 - Software update
The following query detects activity broadly associated with these campaigns.

The following query detects activity broadly associated with these campaigns.
Detects audio capture via PowerShell Cmdlet.
Detects suspicious patterns in program names or folders that are often found in malicious samples or hacktools
An adversary may compress or encrypt data that is collected prior to exfiltration using 3rd party utilities
Detects usage of 7zip utilities (7z.exe, 7za.exe and 7zr.exe) to extract password protected zip files.
The MailItemsAccessed action is part of the new Advanced Audit functionality of Microsoft Defender XDR. It's part of Exchange mailbox auditing and is enabled by default for users that have an Office 365 or Microsoft 365 E5 license, or for organizations with a Microsoft 365 E5 Compliance add-on subscription.
If more than 1,000 MailItemsAccessed audit records are generated in less than 24 hours, Exchange Online will stop generating auditing records for MailItemsAccessed activity. When a mailbox is throttled, MailItemsAccessed activity will not be logged for 24 hours after the mailbox was throttled. If this occurs, there's a potential that mailbox could have been compromised during this period. The recording of MailItemsAccessed activity will be resumed following a 24-hour period.
The query is looking for MailItemsAccessed Throttling events where the operation is done by a ClientApplication.
See The MailItemsAccessed mailbox auditing action.

First query digs in print spooler drivers folder for any file creations,
MANY OF THE FILES THAT SHOULD COME UP HERE MAY BE LEGIT. Unsigned files
or ones that don't have any relations to printers that you are using are
suspicious.
Second query that can be used for finding client machines that
could be operating print servers or file servers is also included here.
As additional mitigation for the exploit you might want to block the
incoming traffic to the SMB or EPMAP Ports (445) if you need to keep the
spooler service running to print from clients.

This hunting query looks for hosts exporting a mailbox from an on-prem Exchange server, followed by
that same host removing the export within a short time window. This pattern has been observed by attackers
when exfiltrating emails from a target environment. A Mailbox export is unlikely to be a common command run so look for
activity from unexpected hosts and accounts.
