Detects the execution of anti-forensic techniques often associated with the Payouts King ransomware campaign. The rule monitors for the deletion of volume shadow copies via vssadmin, the clearing of Windows event logs using wevtutil, and the clearing of the recycle bin. The correlation of these events suggests an attempt to inhibit system recovery and remove indicators of compromise.

Detects command-line clearing of security, system, application, or PowerShell event logs to impede investigation. This rule specifically looks for the use of 'wevtutil.exe', 'powershell.exe', or 'cmd.exe' with command-line arguments indicative of clearing event logs, such as 'wevtutil.*(cl|clear-log)', 'Clear-EventLog', or 'Remove-EventLog'.

This rule detects Windows application crash events (Event IDs 1000 and 1001) specifically for 'NearShare.exe', 'NearbySharing.exe', or 'quickshare.exe' processes. The detection triggers when the crash description contains indicators of memory-related instability, such as access violations, heap corruption, or invalid virtual calls, which may suggest exploitation attempts or service instability.

This rule detects potentially malicious use of the Windows Installer binary (msiexec.exe) by monitoring for command-line arguments involving remote network resources (HTTP/HTTPS/UNC paths) or suspicious local directories (Temp, AppData, Downloads). Such patterns are indicative of living-off-the-land techniques used to proxy execution, download and install payloads, or perform silent/unauthorized software installations.

Detects modifications to the Outlook Security registry key, specifically setting the 'Level' value to '1'. This configuration (often associated with 'OutlookSecurityMode' or related programmatic access policies) can be used by adversaries to bypass security prompts when accessing the Outlook Object Model, allowing malicious scripts or applications to interact with Outlook to send emails, harvest contacts, or access attachments without user intervention.

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.

Detects the use of the WMI command-line (WMIC) utility to identify and display various system information,
including OS, CPU, GPU, and disk drive names; memory capacity; display resolution; and baseboard, BIOS,
and GPU driver products/versions.
Some of these commands were used by Aurora Stealer in late 2022/early 2023.
