Detects phishing emails with malicious HTML attachments designed to harvest credentials and exfiltrate them via the Telegram Bot API. The detection looks for specific attachment filenames (e.g., RFQ, INQUIRY) or content patterns indicative of this threat.
Detects when an API access service account is granted domain authority within Google Workspace. This action can be used by an attacker to gain persistent and elevated access to an organization's Google Workspace data and services by allowing a service account to impersonate users across the domain.
Detects inbound emails with a Virtual Hard Disk (VHDX) file attachment. This technique has been used by APT-C-60 to deliver the SpyGlace backdoor, often disguised as a job application.
Detects when a Google Workspace user is granted administrative privileges. This could indicate a legitimate administrative action or a malicious attempt to escalate privileges within the Google Workspace environment.
The following analytic detects the use of default or publicly known named pipes associated with Cobalt Strike. It leverages Sysmon EventID 17 and 18 to identify specific named pipes commonly used by Cobalt Strike's Artifact Kit and Malleable C2 Profiles. This activity is significant because Cobalt Strike is a popular tool for adversaries to conduct post-exploitation tasks, and identifying its named pipes can reveal potential malicious activity. If confirmed malicious, this could indicate an active Cobalt Strike beacon, leading to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or further lateral movement within the network.
This analytic detects suspicious data transfer activities involving the use of the `split` syscall with the `-b` option, which specifies the size of each output file. This technique can be used by attackers to evade detection by breaking large files into smaller parts, bypassing size-based security controls, and facilitating covert exfiltration of sensitive data. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized use of the `split` syscall with a specified block size, this analytic helps identify potential data exfiltration attempts.
This analytic identifies the bulk creation of ransomware notes (e.g., .txt, .html, .hta files) on an infected machine. It leverages Sysmon EventCode 11 to detect multiple instances of these file types being created within a short time frame (10 seconds). A detection is triggered if 15 or more unique readme paths are observed. This activity is a strong indicator of an active ransomware attack, where the attacker is notifying the victim of the encryption. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to widespread data encryption, rendering critical files inaccessible and potentially causing significant operational disruption.
The following analytic detects suspicious attempts to find credentials stored in password stores, indicating a potential attacker's effort to access sensitive login information. Password stores are critical repositories that contain valuable credentials, and unauthorized access to them can lead to significant security breaches. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized activities related to password store access, this analytic helps identify potential credential theft attempts, allowing security teams to respond promptly and prevent unauthorized access to critical systems and data.
The following analytic identifies the execution of RAR utilities to archive files on a system. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names, GUIDs, and command-line arguments. This activity is significant as threat actors, including red-teamers and malware like DarkGate, use RAR archiving to compress and exfiltrate collected data from compromised hosts. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to the unauthorized transfer of sensitive information to command and control servers, posing a severe risk to data confidentiality and integrity.
This analytic detects the configuration of TFTP services on Cisco IOS devices that could be used to exfiltrate sensitive configuration files. Threat actors like Static Tundra have been observed configuring TFTP servers to make device configuration files accessible for exfiltration after gaining initial access. The detection specifically looks for commands that expose critical configuration files such as startup-config, running-config, and other sensitive system information through TFTP. This activity is particularly concerning as it may represent an attempt to steal credentials, network topology information, and other sensitive data stored in device configurations.
Detects multiple failed Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) push attempts for a user from a single IP address, followed by a successful attempt within a short time window. This pattern can indicate an MFA push bombing or fatigue attack where an adversary spams a user with MFA requests until they approve one.
The analytic detects when a Windows RDP client attempts to execute an RDP file from a temporary directory, downloads directory, or Outlook directories. This detection is significant as it can indicate an attempt for an adversary to deliver a .rdp file, which may be leveraged by attackers to control or exfiltrate data. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or further lateral movement within the network.
This rule detects potential data exfiltration attempts via email by monitoring internal users sending emails to external domains. It flags suspicious activity based on three criteria: a high volume of emails sent (over 100) combined with a large total data size (over 50 MB), a significant number of emails sent to personal domains (over 20), or a notable count of emails with sensitive subjects (over 5). The rule aggregates these metrics over a 1-day window for each user.
The analytic identifies the execution of the native mimikatz.exe binary on Windows systems, including instances where the binary is renamed. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names and original file names. This activity is significant because Mimikatz is a widely used tool for extracting authentication credentials, posing a severe security risk. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow attackers to obtain sensitive credentials, escalate privileges, and move laterally within the network, leading to potential data breaches and system compromise.
Detects emails delivered to user inboxes that contain both a PDF attachment and a URL identified as a phishing link. This rule is designed to identify modern QR code phishing (quishing) campaigns where the malicious URL is embedded within the PDF to bypass traditional email security scanning. The detection relies on the email security solution's ability to extract and flag URLs from attachments, including those embedded in QR codes.
This analytic processes and enriches alerts from CrowdStrike Falcon Event Stream, specifically `DetectionSummaryEvent` and `IdpDetectionSummaryEvent`. It normalizes fields such as user, destination, severity, and MITRE ATT&CK information. The rule dynamically generates drilldown links and constructs a descriptive title and message for each alert. It is designed to provide a standardized view of various CrowdStrike detections, including NGAV, Intel Detection, and Identity Protection alerts, ensuring proper risk scoring and analyst queue population.

The following analytic detects Google Drive or Google Docs files shared externally from an internal domain. It leverages GSuite Drive logs, extracting and comparing the source and destination email domains to identify external sharing. This activity is significant as it may indicate potential data exfiltration by an attacker or insider. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information, data leakage, and potential compliance violations. Monitoring this behavior helps in early detection and mitigation of data breaches.
The following analytic detects shared files in Google Drive with suspicious filenames commonly used in spear phishing campaigns. It leverages GSuite Drive logs to identify documents with titles that include keywords like "dhl," "ups," "invoice," and "shipment." This activity is significant because such filenames are often used to lure users into opening malicious documents or clicking harmful links. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or further compromise of the user's system.
This analytic detects suspicious modifications to Unix shell configuration files, such as `.bashrc` or `.profile`, which may indicate an attempt to alter system behavior or gain unauthorized access. Unauthorized changes to these files can be used to execute malicious commands, escalate privileges, or hide malicious activities. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized modifications to shell configuration files, this analytic helps identify potential security threats, allowing security teams to respond quickly and mitigate risks.
The following analytic detects attempts to stop a service on Linux systems. It leverages data from Linux Auditd. This activity is significant as adversaries often stop or terminate security or critical services to disable defenses or disrupt operations, as seen in malware like Industroyer2. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to the disabling of security mechanisms, allowing attackers to persist, escalate privileges, or deploy destructive payloads, severely impacting system integrity and availability.
