Detects evidence of PowerShell AMSI (Antimalware Scan Interface) bypass attempts, including memory patching of amsiContext, usage of known malicious RC4 keys, or reflection-based tampering with AmsiUtils. These techniques are commonly used by attackers to disable AMSI scanning capabilities and execute malicious scripts undetected.
This rule monitors for specific PowerShell command-line patterns often associated with malicious activity, including 'ClickFix' clipboard-paste lures (using iex/irm with sleep timers), evasion techniques involving pscustomobject/ScriptBlock, and WinHttp COM object usage for stage-2 payload fetching. These patterns are characteristic of adversary attempts to bypass security controls and download secondary implants.
Adversaries may use Valid Accounts to interact with remote systems using Windows Remote Management (WinRM). The adversary may then perform actions as the logged-on user.
Detects a suspicious sequence of activities where PowerShell downloads or extracts specific zip files (node.zip, build.zip) to staging directories, followed by the execution of associated binaries like node.exe, winpty-agent.exe, or winpty.dll from those same locations. This behavior is indicative of an adversary staging and executing tooling within temporary user directories.
DNSExfiltrator allows for transferring (exfiltrate) a file over a DNS request covert channel
Detects the execution of powershell scripts with calls to the "Start-NetEventSession" cmdlet. Which allows an attacker to start event and packet capture for a network event session.
Adversaries may attempt to capture network to gather information over the course of an operation.
Data captured via this technique may include user credentials, especially those sent over an insecure, unencrypted protocol.

Adversaries may carry out malicious operations using a virtual instance to avoid detection
Detects commandline keywords indicative of potential usge of the tool WinPwn. A tool for Windows and Active Directory reconnaissance and exploitation.
This rule detects potentially malicious PowerShell execution patterns involving hidden windows, administrative elevation via 'Start-Process -Verb RunAs', and the targeting or execution of rsetup64.exe within specific system paths. It also flags execution chains where 'net session' commands, often used for discovery or local privilege verification, are piped to null and followed by or initiate the same target executables, suggesting lateral movement or persistence attempts.
Detects anomalous system reconnaissance activity performed using WMIC or PowerShell Get-WmiObject commands. The rule tracks distinct command-line executions per device and flags hosts where three or more unique reconnaissance commands are executed within a short timeframe, which is indicative of an adversary enumerating system configuration, hotfixes, or hardware details.
Detects PEEP Secure Preferences integrity-hash forgery (protection.macs/super_mac) and known PEEP persistence scripts (patch_secure_prefs.ps1, install_silent.ps1, force_enable.ps1), anchored to actual Chrome/Edge profile paths rather than generic terms like 'protection' or 'developer_mode' that appear in unrelated admin tooling.
Detects the execution of common system administration tools (cmd, powershell, net, nltest, etc.) used to perform environment discovery or credential enumeration, specifically when targeting Domain Controllers, Active Directory objects, database credentials, or sensitive configuration files.

Detects AS-REP roasting is an attack that is often-overlooked. It is not very common as you have to explicitly set accounts that do not require pre-authentication.
Detects Invoke-Mimikatz PowerShell script and alike. Mimikatz is a credential dumper capable of obtaining plaintext Windows account logins and passwords.
Detects a suspicious sequence of activities where PowerShell downloads or extracts specific zip files (node.zip, build.zip) to staging directories, followed by the execution of associated binaries like node.exe, winpty-agent.exe, or winpty.dll from those same locations. This behavior is indicative of an adversary staging and executing tooling within temporary user directories.
Detects attempts of decoding a base64 Gzip archive in a PowerShell script. This technique is often used as a method to load malicious content into memory afterward.
Adversaries may manipulate accounts to maintain access to victim systems.
Account manipulation may consist of any action that preserves adversary access to a compromised account, such as modifying credentials or permission groups

Detects technique used by MAZE ransomware to enumerate directories using Powershell
Adversaries may abuse the Windows command shell for execution.
The Windows command shell ([cmd](https://attack.mitre.org/software/S0106)) is the primary command prompt on Windows systems.
The Windows command prompt can be used to control almost any aspect of a system, with various permission levels required for different subsets of commands.
Batch files (ex: .bat or .cmd) also provide the shell with a list of sequential commands to run, as well as normal scripting operations such as conditionals and loops.
Common uses of batch files include long or repetitive tasks, or the need to run the same set of commands on multiple system

Adversaries may communicate using a protocol and port paring that are typically not associated.
For example, HTTPS over port 8088(Citation: Symantec Elfin Mar 2019) or port 587(Citation: Fortinet Agent Tesla April 2018) as opposed to the traditional port 443.
