Detects unauthorized file deletion activity performed directly by a Node.js process acting as a ChainScript RAT. The RAT uses a bundled node.exe process, operating within specific masquerading directories in the user profile, to execute file system operations such as recursive deletion without spawning child processes.
Detects the Windows Installer service (msiexec.exe) being launched by known remote access software processes like msra.exe (Microsoft Remote Assistance) or anydesk.exe. This behavior is often associated with unauthorized software installation or payload delivery via remote support tools.
Detects the execution of suspicious child processes (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe, bash, wget) spawned by processes associated with public-facing appliances like Fortinet SSL-VPN, Veeam Backup & Replication, Citrix ADC, and cPanel/WHM. This behavior is often indicative of exploitation of public-facing applications (T1190) for initial access, frequently associated with ransomware actors targeting unpatched infrastructure.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using schtasks.exe or PowerShell cmdlets that execute with SYSTEM privileges, or tasks that reference common temporary directories or persistence triggers (logon, idle). This behavior is frequently associated with ransomware, malware persistence, or staged payload execution.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using 'schtasks.exe' or 'Register-ScheduledTask' where the task command path is located in suspicious directories such as AppData, Temp, or ProgramData, or where the task is configured to run under the SYSTEM account. This behavior is commonly used by adversaries for persistence.
Detects a process obtaining handle access to the LSASS process (Sysmon Event ID 10) followed by the creation of a file (Sysmon Event ID 11) using an extension other than '.dmp'. This behavior is characteristic of adversaries attempting to obfuscate credential dumping activities by bypassing simple extension-based detection rules.
Detects web application server processes (such as IIS, Apache, Tomcat, Java, Nginx, or Node.js) spawning command-line interpreters or system utilities. This behavior is frequently associated with webshell execution or post-exploitation activities following the exploitation of a public-facing application, often seen in VPN or enterprise software compromises.
Detects the creation of files commonly associated with ransomware notes (e.g., README.txt, HOW_TO_DECRYPT.txt) across multiple directories, which is a strong indicator of the impact phase where files have been encrypted and the adversary is providing recovery instructions.
Detects a burst of lateral movement activity characterized by the use of administrative tools like PsExec or NetExec/CrackMapExec to execute commands or services on multiple distinct target hosts from a single source host within a short window. This pattern is commonly associated with ransomware affiliates or threat actors performing reconnaissance and mass deployment of malicious payloads prior to encryption.
Detects remote command execution patterns associated with the Impacket suite (e.g., wmiexec.py, atexec.py, smbexec.py). The detection identifies cmd.exe processes spawned by WmiPrvSE.exe or svchost.exe that contain specific command-line arguments indicative of Impacket's remote execution behavior, such as output redirection to hidden administrative shares or temporary files.
Detects unauthorized attempts to dump credentials from the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) process. This includes the execution of known credential-harvesting tools (e.g., Mimikatz, LaZagne, pypykatz), the use of system utilities like procdump and comsvcs.dll to dump process memory, and anomalous direct handle access to lsass.exe by non-system processes. This activity is associated with Storm-2570 post-compromise tradecraft.
Detects the execution of reconnaissance commands designed to enumerate Active Directory domain trust relationships. Attackers, including those associated with ransomware operations like INC Ransom, use these tools to map organizational structures and identify pathways for lateral movement and cross-domain propagation.
Detects the use of legitimate Windows administrative utilities (vssadmin, wmic, bcdedit, wbadmin) to delete volume shadow copies, clear backup catalogs, or modify boot configuration to prevent automatic system recovery. This behavior is a common indicator of ransomware preparing for encryption by removing local recovery options.
Detects endpoint-based retrieval of potential malicious payloads or configurations from blockchain-hosted infrastructure (e.g., Infura, Alchemy, public RPC nodes) using web-based RPC calls, followed by the execution of a script interpreter (e.g., PowerShell, WScript, MSHTA). This pattern is characteristic of 'EtherHiding' campaigns where smart contracts are used as decentralized and takedown-resistant storage for second-stage delivery.
Detects the installation or loading of a non-standard kernel driver followed by the termination of known security/EDR agent processes. This behavior is indicative of a 'Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver' (BYOVD) attack, where attackers leverage kernel-level privileges from a vulnerable driver to bypass EDR protections and disable security tools prior to encryption or other malicious activities.
This rule detects potential post-exploitation activity following a SharePoint XamlServices.Parse() deserialization attack. It monitors the w3wp.exe (IIS worker process) for the loading of suspicious .NET deserialization-related assemblies (e.g., System.Xaml.dll) followed by the execution of a shell process (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, etc.) within a short window, which is indicative of fileless web shell activity.
IOC hunt across DNS, network, and file-hash telemetry for the Ledger Google Ads phishing campaign. Vercel redirect domains are matched by exact hostname (DNS query name / parsed URL host) rather than substring, eliminating false positives from unrelated strings that merely contain a look-alike domain fragment. GCS bucket and Google Sites path IOCs remain substring-matched since the bucket IDs and page slugs are already highly specific.
Detects the modification of service permissions for the 'AgtaBackupAgentSvc' service using the 'sdset' command via 'sc.exe', 'cmd.exe', or 'powershell.exe'. Adversaries use this technique to hide services or modify access to them by applying a specific Service Descriptor Definition Language (SDDL) string to bypass security enumeration or maintain persistence.
Detects the deletion of volume shadow copies using standard Windows utilities vssadmin.exe or wmic.exe. This activity is a common indicator of ransomware or other destructive attacks attempting to inhibit system recovery.
Detects usage of Crowdstrike Real Time Response (RTR) to execute a "runscript" command.
This can be used by malicious actors with access to the Crowdstrike Dashboard to execute commands on remote managed hosts.
This can be used by malicious actors with access to the Crowdstrike Dashboard to execute commands on remote managed hosts.
Detects the execution of known, signed legitimate binaries (COTFileReadApp.exe or DeElevate64.exe) from user-writable directories, such as %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\. This behavior is a common indicator of DLL sideloading, where adversaries utilize a trusted, signed application to execute malicious code by placing a malicious DLL in the same directory as the executable.
