This rule flags a large number of files receiving a '.lalia' extension at once, indicating potential Lalia ransomware activity. Bulk extension changes are a common initial indicator of ransomware infection. The rule looks for at least 20 file events (renamed, created, or modified) where the file name ends with '.lalia' within a 30-day window.

This rule detects an unusually high volume of file deletion events on a device within a short time frame (100 or more files deleted within a 5-minute window). This activity can be indicative of malicious behaviors such as ransomware encrypting and deleting original files, data wiping attacks, or an adversary attempting to remove forensic evidence by deleting logs or other critical files.

This rule detects an unusually high number of Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) process executions (wmic.exe or wmiprvse.exe) on a single device within a one-hour window. A threshold of 10 or more executions per hour is used to flag potential suspicious activity. Adversaries often leverage WMI for various purposes, including reconnaissance, lateral movement, persistence, and execution of malicious commands.
