This rule detects unauthorized or suspicious queries against Windows Registry paths known to contain sensitive information, including security hives (SAM, SECURITY), application-specific secrets (PuTTY, OpenSSH, RealVNC), and system autologon credentials. It monitors both command-line executions of 'reg.exe' and PowerShell commands targeting these registry keys.
This rule detects the execution of PowerShell or pwsh.exe with an encoded command. Adversaries often use encoded commands to obfuscate their malicious scripts and evade detection. The rule specifically looks for the '-EncodedCommand' or '-enc' parameter followed by a base64-encoded string of at least 20 characters.
Detects signs of access token manipulation and impersonation, including the use of 'runas' with saved credentials, suspicious PowerShell API calls for identity management, usage of known token-manipulation tools (e.g., incognito), and reconnaissance using 'whoami /priv'. These activities are indicative of privilege escalation attempts or lateral movement.
This rule detects unauthorized or suspicious queries against Windows Registry paths known to contain sensitive information, including security hives (SAM, SECURITY), application-specific secrets (PuTTY, OpenSSH, RealVNC), and system autologon credentials. It monitors both command-line executions of 'reg.exe' and PowerShell commands targeting these registry keys.
Detects techniques associated with Golden SAML attacks, including the use of Mimikatz for ADFS token-signing certificate extraction, the execution of AADInternals PowerShell cmdlets for SAML token forgery, and unauthorized access to the ADFS configuration database (AdfsConfiguration.mdf).
Detects attempts to bypass the Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) in PowerShell processes. The rule looks for known bypass strings, memory patching via Marshal, reflection-based disabling of AmsiUtils, or base64-encoded AMSI patch targets.
Detects the execution of known StrikeShark post-compromise reconnaissance tools, specifically fscan.exe and searchall.exe, as well as associated administrative commands used for domain group and trust discovery in Windows environments.
This rule detects PowerShell or pwsh processes executing commands that contain the string 'autogenstudio' combined with a base64-encoded or obfuscated command pattern. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to execute obfuscated scripts or payloads associated with the Autogenstudio application or using it as a camouflage.
Detects execution of PowerShell commands that use the ExecutionPolicy Bypass flag while concurrently attempting to suspend BitLocker protection. This behavior is highly characteristic of ransomware activity, specifically associated with the ShrinkLocker malware, where the adversary disables disk encryption protection to facilitate malicious operations or subsequent encryption.
Detects the use of PowerShell to perform DNS lookups for TXT records followed by immediate command execution, such as using 'Invoke-Expression' or 'Start-Process'. This pattern is frequently indicative of fileless command-and-control (C2) communication where stage-payload commands or scripts are retrieved via DNS TXT records to evade detection.
Detects the execution of PowerShell commands intended to suspend BitLocker encryption. Adversaries may attempt to disable or suspend disk encryption to facilitate data exfiltration or to modify protected system files.
Detects the use of PowerShell to perform DNS lookups for TXT records followed by immediate command execution, such as using 'Invoke-Expression' or 'Start-Process'. This pattern is frequently indicative of fileless command-and-control (C2) communication where stage-payload commands or scripts are retrieved via DNS TXT records to evade detection.
Detects a two-stage attack chain where a host downloads an image file from the network, followed by the execution of suspicious system binaries (e.g., mshta, powershell, rundll32). This pattern is characteristic of steganographic loaders like CloudEyE or DBatLoader used to extract and execute payloads like Remcos RAT.
Detects the deletion of volume shadow copies using standard Windows utilities such as vssadmin.exe, wmic.exe, or PowerShell commands. This behavior is commonly associated with ransomware or other malicious activity aimed at inhibiting system recovery by removing backups.
Detects the deletion of volume shadow copies using standard Windows utilities such as vssadmin.exe, wmic.exe, or PowerShell commands. This behavior is commonly associated with ransomware or other malicious activity aimed at inhibiting system recovery by removing backups.
This rule detects the creation of named pipes or mutexes with GUID-like naming patterns by non-system processes. Threat actors frequently use uniquely generated GUIDs for IPC mechanisms like named pipes and mutexes to coordinate between processes or to check for existing infection, often to avoid detection by using non-obvious names.
This rule detects the use of PowerShell commands that leverage Windows Forms or GDI APIs (e.g., System.Windows.Forms.Screen, System.Drawing.Bitmap, CopyFromScreen) to perform screen capture. Adversaries often use these native .NET capabilities to capture desktop screenshots during post-exploitation.
Detects instances where Windows event logs are cleared using built-in utilities (wevtutil.exe) or PowerShell (Get-EventLog/Get-WinEvent, Clear-EventLog) shortly after those same logs were queried or enumerated by the same user on the same device. This pattern is highly indicative of an adversary attempting to conceal malicious activity.
This rule detects the creation of named pipes or mutexes with GUID-like naming patterns by non-system processes. Threat actors frequently use uniquely generated GUIDs for IPC mechanisms like named pipes and mutexes to coordinate between processes or to check for existing infection, often to avoid detection by using non-obvious names.
Detects unauthorized attempts to enumerate stored Windows credentials using native command-line utilities such as vaultcmd.exe and cmdkey.exe, or by invoking CredEnumerate/Get-StoredCredential functions via PowerShell scripts. These methods are commonly used by attackers to gain access to cached passwords, tokens, or network credentials stored in the Windows Credential Manager.
Detects the execution of wscript.exe spawning a child powershell.exe process with arguments specifically configured to execute a script file starting with 'ps_' from the 'C:\Temp' directory. This behavior is highly characteristic of JScript droppers commonly associated with malicious email attachments that write and launch secondary payloads silently in the background.
