This rule detects the suspicious creation or modification of high-privileged accounts (Domain Admins, Enterprise Admins, Administrators) using net.exe or net1.exe. It triggers when these commands are executed via PowerShell or cmd.exe, originating from suspect parent processes (WmiPrvSE.exe, mstsc.exe, etc.), and specifically monitors for a pattern of creating the same new account across multiple distinct hosts within a short 30-minute window, excluding accounts that existed in the prior 24-hour baseline.
Detects potential Command and Control (C2) communication associated with Emotet malware by monitoring for successful network connections to suspicious remote ports frequently used by the malware. The rule flags endpoints that establish connections to at least three of these high-risk ports within a one-hour window, which is indicative of automated C2 beaconing behavior.
This rule detects potential command and control (C2) beaconing activity by identifying devices communicating with known suspicious remote IP addresses at regular, repeating intervals. It calculates the time difference between consecutive connections to specific suspicious IPs and identifies devices that establish at least three connections within one-hour bins, adhering to a 1 to 15-minute heartbeat interval.
This rule detects suspicious activity related to GitHub Actions workflows, including the creation or modification of workflow configuration files, the placement of suspicious JavaScript files in the repository's .github directory, the execution of the 'Bun' runtime within an Actions runner environment, and cloud-based events indicating workflow modification containing 'Run Copilot' strings. These patterns are often associated with CI/CD pipeline compromise, malicious automation, or unauthorized code execution within build environments.
Detects host-based reconnaissance activity patterns indicative of Trickbot malware. The rule monitors for a high frequency (>= 4 unique commands within a 30-minute window) of diagnostic commands ('tasklist', 'systeminfo', 'ipconfig', 'net') executed by cmd.exe or powershell.exe, which is a common behavior pattern for adversary discovery processes.
This rule detects potential Business Email Compromise (BEC) attempts by identifying emails containing financial keywords sent to sensitive finance/accounting roles from domains that have not been observed in the last 180 days. It then correlates this email event with subsequent device-level network activity involving banking or financial URLs initiated by the recipient user, which may indicate follow-up reconnaissance or unauthorized access.
Detects potential financial data exfiltration by monitoring for bulk downloads of files with financial keywords from SaaS/Office365 platforms, and identifies unauthorized processes attempting to access sensitive financial application data files (.qbw, .qbb, etc.) on local systems.
Detects network and DNS activity involving domains known to be used by the threat actor APT28 for command and control, specifically for hosting WebDAV payloads, malicious LNK files, and weaponized documents.
Detects network and DNS activity involving domains known to be used by the threat actor APT28 for command and control, specifically for hosting WebDAV payloads, malicious LNK files, and weaponized documents.
This rule monitors for unauthorized deletion or modification of Microsoft Sentinel alert rules and automation rules. Such actions are indicative of an attacker attempting to impair security monitoring, silence alerts, or disable automated responses to maintain persistence and evade detection.
This rule detects network communication (connections, DNS queries, or proxy logs) between endpoints and a list of known malicious domains and IP addresses associated with Mistic and Woodgnat/KongTuke threat families. It identifies these activities across network event logs, DNS queries, and security logs.
This rule detects unauthorized or suspicious modifications to Microsoft Sentinel alert rules. It specifically monitors for the deletion of alert rules or the disabling of existing rules via the Azure activity logs. Such actions may indicate an attempt by an adversary to impair security monitoring and defensive capabilities.
Detects instances where a guest user is invited to the organization using an email address from potentially malicious TLDs (e.g., .ru, .cn, .ir, .kp) or a domain structure that is represented as an IP address. These patterns are often associated with phishing, reconnaissance, or adversary attempts to gain a foothold in an environment by inviting external identities.
Detects potential Pass-the-Hash lateral movement where a single account uses NTLM authentication as a local administrator to access three or more distinct devices within a 30-minute window, a pattern often indicative of automated credential propagation.
Detects usage of the Windows certutil.exe binary to perform potentially malicious operations such as downloading files via URL cache or decoding base64/hex payloads. The rule specifically alerts when these actions occur within common user-writable or temporary directories often used by threat actors for file staging.
Detects suspected NarwhalRAT activity where a process (e.g., userscreen.exe or pythonw.exe in suspicious locations) communicates with the pCloud API to resolve a dead-drop location, followed within 60 seconds by a beacon connection to a different remote IP, characteristic of C2 communication.
Detects execution of known reconnaissance tools and scripts associated with the Kimera framework, including subdomain and asset enumeration utilities (e.g., subfinder, nuclei, httpx) or custom Python scripts. The rule also monitors for reconnaissance-related ulimit adjustments and concurrent bursts of multiple enumeration tools, which are indicative of automated scanning activity.
Detects evidence of potential data exfiltration activities including the execution of known exfiltration scripts, the use of netcat for unauthorized data transfer to a specific C2 IP, and the presence or access of BloodHound dump files. The rule also monitors for network communication with a known command and control IP address.
This rule detects potentially malicious activity related to the npm ecosystem. It identifies Node.js processes accessing .npmrc files (which contain authentication tokens) followed by immediate outbound network communication. Additionally, it detects suspicious command-line patterns associated with automated npm publishing (indicative of worm-like propagation) and the presence of npm credentials in the environment or command lines of non-npm processes.
Detects post-exploitation activities associated with the StrikeShark framework, specifically the use of FScan and Searchall tools for internal network port scanning and domain group enumeration using built-in Windows net commands.
Detects host-based reconnaissance activity patterns indicative of Trickbot malware. The rule monitors for a high frequency (>= 4 unique commands within a 30-minute window) of diagnostic commands ('tasklist', 'systeminfo', 'ipconfig', 'net') executed by cmd.exe or powershell.exe, which is a common behavior pattern for adversary discovery processes.
