Detects instances where Windows Terminal (WindowsTerminal.exe) is launched by Explorer and immediately spawns a shell process (PowerShell, PWSH, or CMD), specifically excluding devices that have recorded recent RunMRU registry history. This pattern may indicate suspicious or non-interactive execution by an adversary attempting to bypass traditional shell history tracking.

This rule monitors for PowerShell commands that combine common data collection flags ('-Recurse', 'Documents') with 'Invoke-WebRequest' to perform a POST method upload. This pattern is commonly associated with the staging and exfiltration of sensitive files from local directories to a remote destination via HTTP/S.

This rule detects the execution of suspicious shortcut (.lnk) files or the use of command-line interpreters (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe) to initiate processes related to specific, potentially malicious filenames often associated with phishing or social engineering campaigns. The rule monitors for these activities occurring in user-writable directories such as Downloads, Desktop, or Temp.

Detects the use of command-line utilities (cmd.exe, curl.exe, tar.exe) to download or interact with specific suspicious zip archives (python-3.10.0-embed-amd64.zip, temp012.zip, MusicLibrariesPackage) from known staging directories or external sources often associated with malicious staging or persistence.

Detects the execution of the Program Compatibility Assistant (pcalua.exe) with the '-a' flag to launch executables located in common user-writable directories such as Temp, Downloads, or AppData. This behavior is a known Living off the Land Binaries and Scripts (LOLBAS) technique used to proxy execution and potentially bypass security controls or break parent-child process lineage.

Detects the execution of wscript.exe or cscript.exe with VBScript or JScript files from user-writable and temporary directories, such as %TEMP%, %APPDATA%, and Downloads folders. This pattern is commonly associated with the execution of malicious droppers and loaders in malspam campaigns.

Detects the execution of cmd.exe with suspicious command-line obfuscation patterns. The rule looks for the use of the '/k' flag combined with variable assignment and character substitution/expansion patterns (e.g., %var:~start,len%), often used in batch file obfuscation to execute malicious logic. It specifically triggers when originating from common suspicious parents like explorer.exe or Bandizip.exe, or when targeting syswow64 locations.

This rule detects potentially malicious command execution initiated by or linked to the Bandizip archive utility. It identifies scenarios where Bandizip launches shells (cmd, powershell, wscript, cscript) to execute scripts or commands (e.g., .lnk files, .bat, .vbs, .js, .ps1), or where suspicious 'cmd.exe /k' commands are executed directly or through an updater process.

Detects the use of odbcconf.exe with the REGSVR flag to load DLLs from suspicious directory locations (such as Temp, Downloads, or AppData), a technique used by adversaries to proxy execution and bypass application control.

Detects the execution of installutil.exe with specific command-line arguments (logging disabled, uninstall flag) from file paths outside of the standard .NET directory structure. This pattern is commonly used by attackers to proxy execution of arbitrary managed code, effectively bypassing application whitelisting and security controls.
