Detects the deletion of volume shadow copies using common Windows administrative utilities including vssadmin.exe, wmic.exe, diskshadow.exe, or through PowerShell WMI/CIM cmdlets. This behavior is frequently associated with ransomware and data destruction attacks aiming to prevent system recovery.
This rule detects potentially malicious activities aimed at credential harvesting and system recovery inhibition. It monitors for the execution of vssadmin.exe with arguments to list shadow copies (often a precursor to deletion) or references to DPAPI master keys in command lines. Additionally, it identifies unauthorized processes attempting to access sensitive browser-based credential files (e.g., Login Data, Cookies, key4.db) from standard browser installation paths, specifically excluding legitimate browser and update processes.
Detects anomalous, high-value wire transfers involving keywords related to advance-payment or M&A-related fraud (e.g., 'advance retainer'), directed towards beneficiaries in Hong Kong using previously unseen bank accounts. The rule effectively filters out known, approved beneficiary accounts to focus on potentially malicious transactions.
This rule monitors for inbound external emails where the sender requests private communication (e.g., 'private email' or 'personal address') in combination with keywords related to sensitive business topics like M&A, legal, or urgent financial transactions. This pattern is characteristic of Business Email Compromise (BEC) or social engineering attempts designed to move sensitive conversations outside of monitored corporate channels.
Detects rapid, non-interactive ransomware-like behavior characterized by system reconnaissance followed by automated bulk file deletion of model/data files (e.g., .ckpt, .pt). The rule identifies campaigns where discovery, lateral movement or automated execution, and destructive impact occur within a 3-hour window without any interactive user login evidence.
Detects the execution of the Windows shutdown utility (shutdown.exe) with parameters configured to force an immediate reboot (/r /t 0 /f). This behavior is often associated with disruptive activities or attempts to clear system state by unauthorized actors.
Detects a significant surge of bulk or spam mail quarantine events for a single mailbox within a 15-minute window. This behavior often indicates a mail-bombing attack intended to overwhelm the user or as a distraction technique (smokescreen) to hide concurrent malicious activities such as exfiltration, lateral movement, or ransomware staging in the M365 tenant.
Detects the XHOPELESS wiper routine 'KillNetworkPermanent' which severs network connectivity by resetting the TCP/IP stack using netsh, blocking all traffic via Windows Advanced Firewall commands, and disabling network adapters via devcon.exe as a final destructive action.
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 repeated attempts to delete Volume Shadow Copies using WMIC. This is a common technique used by ransomware and other malware to prevent system recovery and inhibit forensic investigations. The rule filters out known backup agents and service accounts and identifies patterns where multiple distinct deletions occur within a 5-minute window.
This rule detects potentially malicious activity where multiple critical processes (such as database engines or email clients) are terminated in a short time frame, correlated with a high volume of file creation or modification events on the same device. This behavior is indicative of destructive activity, such as ransomware encrypting data stores or disabling defensive software.
Detects high-frequency file creation, modification, or renaming activity involving files with the specific '.df_win' extension, likely indicative of mass encryption activity or automated ransomware behavior. The rule excludes known backup and security software processes to reduce noise.
This rule detects potentially malicious activity where multiple critical processes (such as database engines or email clients) are terminated in a short time frame, correlated with a high volume of file creation or modification events on the same device. This behavior is indicative of destructive activity, such as ransomware encrypting data stores or disabling defensive software.
Detects high volumes of file renaming activities involving files with the .df_win extension. This pattern is often indicative of ransomware-like behavior where mass renaming occurs as part of an encryption process, impacting multiple directories.
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 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 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 anomalous TCP stream reassembly where overlapping segments contain different data. This technique is often used to bypass Network Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) by presenting different data to the target system than what the IDS inspects.
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 the deletion of registry keys associated with Windows SafeBoot configuration. Adversaries may delete these keys to disrupt system recovery mechanisms, preventing administrators from booting the system into Safe Mode to diagnose or remove malicious software.
Detects pre-encryption activity typical of the CRPx0 ransomware, involving the destruction of Windows Volume Shadow Copies, Windows Backup Catalogs, or macOS Time Machine snapshots using system utilities such as vssadmin, wbadmin, wmic, or tmutil. This behavior is indicative of an imminent encryption phase.
