Detects the creation or modification of Registry keys within 'Image File Execution Options' (IFEO) intended to associate a debugger with security-critical or monitoring binaries (e.g., Sysmon, Filebeat). This technique is used for defense evasion and persistence by intercepting or preventing the execution of security tools.

Detects attempts to terminate or delete security-related services and logging agents, such as Sysmon, Filebeat, and various endpoint protection agents, using legitimate Windows system utilities like taskkill, sc, or wmic.

Detects web browser processes (e.g., Chrome, Edge, Firefox) spawned by parent processes that are not typical for web browser execution. This behavior is often associated with malware (such as infostealers) using unconventional process spawning to inject code or perform credential theft.

Detects batch scripts that execute renamed Mimikatz-style binaries (e.g., g.com, hs.com) for credential dumping purposes. The rule looks for the combination of command-line arguments to redirect output to text files, the subsequent deletion of the renamed binaries and associated artifacts (mimidrv.sys, temp files), and the execution of 'gpupdate /force', which is a common technique used to trigger or finalize credential dumping operations.

Detects the dllhost.exe process, running with SYSTEM privileges, loading a dynamic link library (DLL) from a user-writable path within the ProgramData directory. This behavior is consistent with the abuse of COM marshaling, specifically exploiting dangling CLSID entries to force a privileged COM host process to unmarshal and load an attacker-controlled DLL.

Detects instances of PowerShell being launched directly by Windows Explorer (explorer.exe), which is indicative of a user interacting with the 'Run' dialog (Win+R). The rule specifically flags common ClickFix social-engineering patterns, such as hidden windows and the use of download/execution cmdlets (e.g., Invoke-WebRequest, Invoke-RestMethod) used to fetch and run remote payloads.

Detects the initialization of known-malicious Terraform providers (dockerd) followed within one hour by the execution of a 'go run' process from the .terraform directory. This pattern is indicative of a supply chain compromise where an adversary leverages a typosquatted or malicious Terraform provider to facilitate the execution of a secondary payload.

Detects the initialization of known-malicious Terraform providers (dockerd) followed within one hour by the execution of a 'go run' process from the .terraform directory. This pattern is indicative of a supply chain compromise where an adversary leverages a typosquatted or malicious Terraform provider to facilitate the execution of a secondary payload.

Detects the loading of an unsigned or attacker-controlled DLL into a SYSTEM-context dllhost.exe process, consistent with the exploitation of dangling COM CrossDevice CLSIDs (e.g., forcing ICreateObject::Proc3 to LoadLibrary from a C:\ProgramData location).

This rule monitors for a variety of indicators associated with malicious activity, including connections to known malicious IP addresses, the presence of specific malicious file hashes or filenames, modifications to Windows system policies (specifically Legal Notice configuration), and changes to Active Directory Group Policy Objects using specified GUIDs.

The following analytic detects an uncommon process requesting full access rights to winlogon.exe, which may indicate Rubeus exporting Kerberos tickets from memory.
It leverages Sysmon EventCode 10 and checks for full-access rights, specifically the value 0x1f3fff.

Detects specific file artifacts associated with an AsyncRAT infection chain that leverages a renamed AutoIT interpreter. The rule looks for the presence of a renamed executable, an encrypted .ini loader script, and an unnamed binary payload staged within a temporary directory, as well as associated batch script activity.

Detects the execution of PowerShell with obfuscation-related flags (-NoProfile, -WindowStyle Hidden, -EncodedCommand) initiated by common scripting interpreters (wscript.exe, mshta.exe, cscript.exe). This pattern is often indicative of malicious scripts, such as HTA or VBScript files, attempting to execute encoded PowerShell commands in a high-privilege context.

Detects anomalous process spawning behavior initiated by Python interpreters (pip/conda) on machine learning developer or training hosts, which may indicate a supply chain compromise where a malicious package executes code during or shortly after installation.

Detects execution of Windows Installer packages (MSI) masquerading as common software installers (Spotify, Zoom, Microsoft Teams) using known ChainScript-style naming patterns and suspicious command-line parameters (e.g., ALLUSERS=2, MSIINSTALLPERUSER=1) or invocation from common user-mode applications like cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or explorer.exe.

Detects a suspicious execution chain where a browser process makes a network connection, followed shortly by a direct execution of command-line tools (powershell.exe, mshta.exe, or cmd.exe) from the Windows explorer.exe process (e.g., via the Run dialog). This behavior is characteristic of 'ClickFix' social engineering attacks where users are tricked into copying and pasting malicious commands from a web page directly into their local environment.

Detects the use of the 'finger.exe' utility in a suspicious manner, indicative of payload staging in a 'ClickFix' phishing attack scenario. The rule monitors for instances where 'finger.exe' is executed with suspicious command-line arguments (containing '@' or '-l') by common parent processes associated with malicious copy-paste activities (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or explorer.exe).

Detects the execution of NetSupport Remote Access Tool (RAT) components (client32.exe, Nskbfltr.sys, or TCCTL32.dll) from locations outside of the standard program installation directories. This behavior is often indicative of unauthorized persistence or masquerading by malware utilizing remote support software for C2.

Detects ClickFix-style browser or explorer spawned command execution using clipboard-paste patterns, or subsequent ransomware-related discovery and inhibit-system-recovery commands such as net.exe, nltest.exe, and vssadmin.exe used after initial access.

Detects a multi-stage Telephone-Oriented Attack Delivery (TOAD) campaign. The first stage identifies phishing emails containing billing or security-themed subjects and phone numbers without links or attachments to evade automated analysis. The second stage monitors for the subsequent installation or execution of common remote-support tools (e.g., AnyDesk, TeamViewer, ScreenConnect). A final correlative rule detects these events occurring sequentially on the same host, indicating a high-confidence indicator of a successful callback phishing social-engineering attempt.

Detects a two-stage activity: first, the potential unauthorized reading or access of LLM provider API keys from files, environment variables, or command-line arguments; and second, the subsequent use of those same credentials to authenticate to LLM provider APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure, Bedrock) from a different, unrecognized source IP address, indicating potential credential theft and session hijacking.
