Detects the use of 7-Zip (7z.exe or 7zip.exe) to archive files within common user directories (Desktop, Documents, Users, AppData). This activity is often associated with staging sensitive data prior to exfiltration.

Detects the execution of known NTLM relay and credential harvesting tools such as Responder, Inveigh, and PetitPotam, or suspicious command-line patterns involving the use of 'net use' or common Windows binaries (e.g., powershell.exe, rundll32.exe) to access or force SMB authentication with remote IP addresses.

Detects the creation of a new scheduled task using the Windows native schtasks.exe command-line utility. This behavior is commonly associated with persistence mechanisms or lateral movement activities where attackers schedule tasks to execute malicious payloads.

This rule detects the use of native Windows utilities such as nltest.exe, netdom.exe, and PowerShell to enumerate Active Directory domain trust relationships. Attackers commonly perform this discovery to map out target environments, identify lateral movement opportunities, or plan further exploitation in multi-domain or forest environments.

This rule detects potential Active Directory enumeration attempts by monitoring for the execution of common command-line tools and PowerShell cmdlets used to query domain information, such as users, groups, and domain controllers.

Detects the execution of script interpreters (wscript.exe, mshta.exe, cscript.exe) where the parent process, process path, or command line originates from a removable drive (drive letters D: through Z:). This is a common pattern for USB-based malware propagation and execution.

This rule detects potential sandbox evasion or environment analysis by identifying multiple disparate system checks (hardware, memory, processor, analysis tool, or uptime checks) performed within a short timeframe by common script interpreters like PowerShell or WScript/CScript.

Detects instances where svchost.exe (typically a system service host) is acting as the parent process to spawn reconnaissance utilities such as systeminfo.exe, wmic.exe, ipconfig.exe, or whoami.exe. This behavior is highly irregular as these utilities are typically invoked by users or administrative scripts, not system-level service processes, and may indicate process injection or malicious activity leveraging legitimate system processes.

103
Detects a privilege escalation technique that exploits the Windows Error Reporting (WER) 'QueueReporting' scheduled task. An attacker leverages the Task Scheduler COM API to trigger this task, causing 'wermgr.exe' to execute as SYSTEM from an attacker-controlled directory (often via directory junction redirection), subsequently spawning shell processes.

Detects malicious npm dependency sideloading where a node.exe process spawns cmd.exe from a path containing 'node_modules'. This rule specifically targets the behavior observed in the Polymarket Trap / wshu.net supply chain campaign, where indirect dependencies execute malicious scripts that bypass security restrictions by launching Windows command shells at runtime.

001
Detects execution of 'winget configure' where the configuration file path is missing or incorrectly specified, while still utilizing automated flags like '--accept-configuration-agreements' and '--disable-interactivity'. This pattern may indicate an attempt to run winget configuration with malformed arguments or an attempt to bypass standard configuration input validation.

Detects the execution of child processes by wsl.exe. Attackers may use the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2) to execute code, stage payloads, or initiate network connections within the isolated WSL2 VM environment, potentially bypassing Windows-based endpoint monitoring and network security controls.

Detects instances where the Dllhost.exe (COM Surrogate) process writes executable files, scripts, or library files to common temporary or public directories. This behavior is often associated with COM hijacking, lateral movement, or malicious payload staging by adversaries.

Detects execution of PowerShell processes (powershell.exe, pwsh.exe) containing command-line arguments indicative of Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) bypass attempts. This includes known bypass strings, reflection-based patching of memory internals (AmsiUtils, GetDelegateForFunctionPointer), and base64-encoded fragments of common bypass techniques.

This rule detects the creation of scheduled tasks using schtasks.exe that exhibit characteristics associated with the SharkLoader malware. Specifically, it identifies tasks using suspicious names like 'OneDrive Standalone Update Task' or those referencing components dropped in %APPDATA% directories (e.g., \xwreg\, \xgdf\), or tasks masquerading as 'SystemSettings.exe' or 'KasperskyLab' directories.

Detects file write or delete operations involving cmd.exe by processes potentially associated with the TrymeLocker ransomware, specifically looking for indicators of ownership or permission modification (takeown, icacls) and suspicious file paths.

Detects the use of PowerShell to perform DNS lookups for TXT records followed by immediate command execution, such as using 'Invoke-Expression' or 'Start-Process'. This pattern is frequently indicative of fileless command-and-control (C2) communication where stage-payload commands or scripts are retrieved via DNS TXT records to evade detection.

Detects the use of the 'fsutil.exe' utility with the 'setZeroData' argument to perform zero-byte file filling, often used to make files unrecoverable. The rule further filters for command lines containing common file deletion commands like 'del' or network connectivity tests like 'ping', indicating possible malicious file removal or destruction activity.
