Detects the creation or modification of suspicious web-related script files (PHP, ASPX, JSP, SHTML) in common web server directories, excluding activities from legitimate web server processes. This rule aims to identify potential webshell deployment or other post-exploitation activities, specifically linked to APT28's targeting of Roundcube webmail servers.
Detects the creation of hidden executables deep within the AppData\Roaming directory, a characteristic behavior of PureHVNC for persistence.
Detects outbound network traffic to specific Hong Kong backend fleet subnets (AS398478) identified as being utilized by the 'Borrowed Trust' threat actor. This infrastructure is used to manage redirection and affiliate attribution for their SEO poisoning campaign.
This rule detects when a single account initiates 5 or more successful Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connections within a one-hour window. This behavior can be indicative of an adversary attempting to gain widespread access within a network, potentially through credential stuffing, brute-force attacks, or lateral movement using compromised credentials.
Detects the execution of the 'whoami' command when its base64 encoded string ('d2hvYW1p') appears in a process command line. This pattern is often associated with web shells or other malicious activity attempting to gain system information.
Detects WindowsPackageManagerServer.exe launching with the '--manualActivation' flag. This behavior is indicative of the DSCourier COM API abuse technique, which bypasses the standard winget.exe binary to execute malicious Desired State Configuration (DSC) payloads stealthily.
This rule detects the creation of PowerShell aliases for high-risk cmdlets or .NET web client patterns. Adversaries may use 'Set-Alias' to create short, obfuscated aliases for common cmdlets like Invoke-WebRequest, Invoke-Expression, or cmdlets related to Defender tampering, making their command-line activity harder to detect and analyze. This detection focuses on the 'ProcessCreated' event for PowerShell processes where 'Set-Alias' is used to map to a predefined list of suspicious cmdlets or patterns.
This rule identifies recurring antivirus detections on endpoints, specifically filtering out common false positives originating from browser cache directories. It aggregates detections by device, threat name, and device ID, and flags instances where the same threat has been detected on at least two distinct days within a 30-day lookback period. This helps to highlight persistent malware issues rather than transient or benign detections.
Detects the creation of the '.bun_ran' run-once marker in a temporary directory or suspicious Python '.pth' startup hooks (e.g., 'langchain_core-setup.pth') indicative of the Hades loader variant. The '.bun_ran' file acts as a marker for the loader, while '.pth' files can be used to inject malicious code into Python's import mechanism, achieving persistence or execution.
This rule detects suspicious execution of 'RUNDLL32.EXE' with specific command-line arguments. It looks for instances where 'RUNDLL32.EXE' is executed with both a backslash and a comma in the command line, combined with specific DLL names or keywords like 'iamnotarobot.dll', 'checkme.dll', 'machinerie.dll', 'humanCheck', or 'verifyme'. This pattern is often indicative of malicious DLL loading or persistence mechanisms.
This rule detects potential lateral movement attempts originating from IIS web servers (identified by 'w3wp.exe' as the initiating process) to other internal IP addresses using common lateral movement ports (SMB, RDP, WinRM, SSH). It specifically looks for successful network connections from an IIS server to a private IP address on one of the specified ports, where the remote IP is not the local IP.
Detects instances where Windows screen capture tools (Snipping Tool or Screen Sketch) initiate network connections to external IP addresses on ports commonly associated with Server Message Block (SMB) or Common Internet File System (CIFS). This could indicate an attempt to exfiltrate captured screenshots to an external server.
Detects instances where a web browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Brave, or Internet Explorer) launches 'ms-screensketch'. This activity is unusual as browsers typically do not directly invoke system utilities like Screen Sketch. This could indicate an attempt to capture screen content, potentially for data exfiltration or reconnaissance, or an unexpected browser behavior.
This rule detects potential Agent Tesla malware activity by correlating process execution with network connections. It looks for processes named 'agenttesla.exe', 'atsvc.exe', or 'atservice.exe' that execute with command-line arguments indicative of data exfiltration (e.g., 'smtp', 'ftp', 'http.post', 'exfil'). The rule then correlates these process events with outbound network connections to non-private IP addresses, flagging instances where multiple process runs and multiple network connections occur within a 30-minute window.
This rule detects indicators of a multi-stage infection involving PlugX malware, often associated with the Mustang Panda threat group. It correlates process execution events where the command line contains "mustang", "panda", or "plugx" with either registry modifications containing the same keywords or network connections to a remote URL containing "/update". This correlation helps to identify more sophisticated attacks that involve multiple stages of execution, persistence, and communication.
Detects the creation of disk image files (ISO, IMG, VHD, VHDX, WIM) within temporary folders under a user's AppData directory. This activity can be indicative of malware staging or unpacking, often associated with initial access techniques where malicious payloads are delivered as disk images.
Detects registry changes affecting DisableRestrictedAdmin, specifically when it is set to '00000000' (disabled). This modification could weaken authentication protections or facilitate credential theft techniques by allowing the use of cached credentials for remote connections.
This rule detects an unusually high volume of network connections to common proxy ports (3128, 8080, 80, 443) initiated by critical system processes such as 'services.exe', 'svchost.exe', or 'rundll32.exe'. This behavior can indicate the installation and use of a trojan proxy or other malicious software attempting to exfiltrate data or establish command and control through a proxy.
This rule detects suspicious outbound DNS queries originating from a device that are not directed to common public DNS servers (Google DNS, Cloudflare DNS). The rule specifically flags queries where the remote DNS name contains keywords like 'malware', 'c2', or 'c&c', and where at least 5 such queries occur within an hour from the same device. This pattern can indicate potential malware communication or command and control (C2) activity.
This rule detects suspicious activity related to browser extension installations by monitoring registry modifications. Specifically, it looks for multiple registry value sets within Chrome or Firefox extension paths within a short timeframe (1 hour), which could indicate an automated or malicious installation of browser extensions.
This rule watches for AI-named programs run straight from the Downloads folder or temporary directories after a web download. Many fake AI scams start exactly this way. If the program then does anything unusual, it may be malware posing as a free AI tool. Ask the person who used the computer whether they installed new software or clicked a link, and involve your security team if the answer is unclear.
