Detects instances where a process masquerading as Firefox (executing outside of legitimate program directories) attempts to modify the Windows 'hosts' file. This behavior is indicative of BabylonRAT or similar malware attempting to redirect network traffic to malicious domains by tampering with local DNS resolution.

Detects inbound emails containing keywords associated with known ransomware extortion tactics (e.g., mention of specific ransomware names, data leaks, and payment demands). The rule filters for inbound traffic to identify external threats while excluding potential internal-generated traffic.

Detects unauthorized database activity targeting Nacos configuration tables, characterized by the use of MySQL's AES_ENCRYPT function to encrypt records, followed by the deletion of original table data or the issuance of a ransom demand. This behavior is indicative of extortion attempts or agentic ransomware targeting web application backends.

Detects potential database-native ransomware activity by identifying the use of MySQL encryption functions (AES_ENCRYPT) to encrypt records followed by the execution of DROP TABLE commands. This pattern is consistent with extortion techniques where attackers encrypt internal database data and remove original tables.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by correlating risky user identity events (such as impossible travel or malicious IP access) with subsequent endpoint behavior typical of ransomware, specifically the deletion of shadow copies or system backups, or mass file modification activity occurring within a short window.

Detects unauthorized file operations (creation, modification, or renaming) against the Windows hosts file located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. This is a common technique used by attackers to redirect network traffic, hijack domains, or disrupt communications to security services. The rule excludes common system processes known to perform legitimate maintenance on this file.

Detects a high volume of subscription or account confirmation emails directed at a single recipient within a one-hour window. This behavior, often referred to as 'email bombing,' can be used to disrupt user productivity, overwhelm inbox capacity, or serve as a distraction technique to hide other malicious activities, such as spearphishing or account takeover notifications.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by correlating three distinct indicators: deletion of Volume Shadow Copies (using native Windows utilities), mass file modifications (>100 files in 15 minutes), and the creation or modification of files typically associated with ransom notes. The rule uses an inner join to ensure these events happen within a 30-minute window of each other on the same device.

Detects Direct Send spearphishing impersonating internal roles (IT/Finance/Procurement) with business-themed lures targeting leadership/finance titles. Rewritten: removed a non-functional sender/recipient substring check and a broken EmailPostDeliveryEvents join that made the rule rarely fire; anchored detection to the actual Direct Send signature (null envelope + domain match) and a direct IdentityInfo join; standardized auth-failure parsing to match the other rules in this set.

This rule detects potential cryptocurrency mining activity where known miner executables (specifically XMRig) or malicious scripts/processes are masquerading as or being spawned by 'LockAppHost.exe' or 'LockAppHost14a02b.exe'. It also monitors for subsequent attempts by these processes to terminate security-related tasks or establish persistence via registry run keys.

Detects incoming emails to finance or accounts payable aliases that contain urgent payment-related keywords and suspicious patterns, such as subject lines including dollar amounts or emails where the Reply-To address domain differs from the Sender domain. This activity is highly indicative of BEC fraud attempts targeting payment redirection.

Detects the eicar_com.zip test archive used by the ShieldCrash PoC (CVE-2026-69414) to trigger Windows Defender's vulnerable scan/read path, only when observed alongside ShieldCrash binary or staging path/context indicators to reduce false positives from routine EICAR AV testing

This rule detects email-based business fraud (BEC) targeting the organization, specifically looking for executive impersonation paired with financial lure terminology and sender domain mismatches. It utilizes both a blocklist of known fraudulent sender indicators (domains and addresses) and a heuristic approach analyzing discrepancies between the envelope sender domain and the header sender domain combined with executive titles in display names and invoice-related keywords.

Detects modifications to Windows Registry keys intended to disable System Restore, User Account Control (UAC), or automatic Windows Updates, which is indicative of an attacker attempting to impair system defenses or inhibit recovery capabilities.
