Detects the initialization and persistence of a 'tailcat.exe' process operating from a non-standard, user-profile directory, typically mimicking legitimate tools. The rule monitors for the specific 'forward' command-line argument containing port mapping strings, an immediate loopback connection to that port, and subsequent periodic external network keep-alive traffic originating from the same process or parent lineage, indicating a C2 tunnel setup.

Detects anomalous activity where AI assistant processes (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot) execute a high volume of diverse discovery commands. The rule correlates multiple discovery categories, such as account, network service, system information, and network configuration discovery, occurring within a short timeframe to identify potential abuse of AI-integrated development tools for host reconnaissance.

Detects the use of legitimate Windows administrative tools (vssadmin, wmic, wbadmin, bcdedit, sc, net) to delete volume shadow copies, clear backup catalogs, disable boot recovery options, or stop critical backup and system services. This behavior is highly characteristic of ransomware activity aiming to prevent data restoration and system recovery.

Detects instances where common scripting engines like Python or Node.js are used to spawn command shells (CMD, PowerShell, or Bash) followed by the execution of suspicious commands commonly associated with reconnaissance, file exfiltration, or lateral movement.

Detects instances where explorer.exe (the Windows Shell) launches common scripting or command-line binaries with suspicious arguments often associated with 'ClickFix' social engineering attacks. These attacks involve tricking users into copying and pasting obfuscated PowerShell, mshta, or curl commands into the Windows Run dialog to execute malicious payloads.

This rule detects a sequence of events characteristic of the x47.c persistence pattern. It monitors for the creation of persistence mechanisms via Windows Registry Run keys or scheduled tasks, followed by the addition of Windows Defender exclusions using PowerShell within a 30-minute window on the same device.

This rule performs an indicator of compromise (IOC) hunt for artifacts related to the Lazarus Group's Graphalgo/GHAPPIER campaign. It monitors DeviceFileEvents, DeviceProcessEvents, and DeviceNetworkEvents over the past 90 days to identify matches against known malicious file hashes (SHA256/SHA1), command-and-control (C2) IP addresses, and malicious domains associated with this campaign.

This rule detects the execution or presence of specific Go or Terraform modules known to be malicious or associated with suspicious dependency retrieval. It monitors command-line activity from terraform.exe/go.exe attempting to download/run from these paths, as well as file system events involving these specific folder paths and filenames.

This rule detects activities associated with the Star Blizzard (also known as APT28 or Callisto) group's CosmicPulse malware, specifically the downloader and Python-based backdoor. It monitors for suspicious CPL file execution via UNC paths by rundll32.exe or control.exe, unauthorized modifications to the HKCU\Software\Classes\.mollis registry key used for COM hijacking, and anomalous spawning of Python executables from control host processes in user-writable directories.

This rule detects potential post-compromise activity related to a campaign using MSP360-masqueraded installers and ScreenConnect remote access tools. It performs an IOC sweep across device file events for known malicious file hashes (associated with installers and post-compromise utilities) and device network events for connections to known malicious domains used for command and control.

Detects instances where the Windows command shell (cmd.exe) is used to execute 'dotnet --list-runtimes' with output redirected to sensitive locations (e.g., NUL, temp folders, or text/log files). This pattern is often observed during post-exploitation activities by RMM agents or unauthorized processes attempting to profile the .NET environment while hiding their command output.

This rule detects various malicious indicators including known file hashes, IP addresses, domains, and specific URLs associated with threat activity. It consolidates hits from process, file, and network telemetry to alert on potential compromise or communication with identified command-and-control (C2) infrastructure.

Detects Node.js or ProfileQuickHost processes performing file operations (read, write, rename) on sensitive browser directories, such as 'Local Extension Settings' or wallet-related folders. This pattern is commonly observed in credential-stealing malware attempting to extract browser-stored secrets or cryptocurrency wallet data.

Detects the installation sequence of the CosmicPulse (YESROBOT) backdoor, characterized by a registry value write under HKCU\Software\Classes\.mollis followed by the execution of a Python 3.8 bootstrapper from a non-standard, suspicious directory such as AppData, ProgramData, or Temp.

Detects a .ps1-named file being loaded as an executable image or created as a process's own file name (both anomalous under normal Windows semantics, since PowerShell always runs scripts via powershell.exe/pwsh.exe as the process image, never as the .ps1 itself). Anchored to the known NeedyMantis sideload staging folders to exclude unrelated developer/test tooling elsewhere on disk that might trip a similar anomaly.

Hunts telemetry for published NeedyMantis indicators: three known SHA-256 hashes (WinSparkle.dll first-stage loader and its encrypted archive, plus the older libcurl archive), the C2 domain corp.tripswithengine[.]com, and the C2 URL path /library/zip/ on that domain. Domain/URL matching parses the actual host out of RemoteUrl and requires an EXACT match (not substring 'has/contains'), so a different domain that merely contains 'corp.tripswithengine.com' as a suffix of a longer label (e.g. 'notcorp.tripswithengine.com') or as a prefix of an unrelated domain (e.g. 'corp.tripswithengine.com.evil.net') cannot match. No malicious IP address has been published for this campaign, so IP-based matching is intentionally not included.

This rule monitors for known malicious file hashes, command and control (C2) domains, and specific download URLs associated with identified threats. It correlates these indicators across process execution, file activity, and network connection logs to identify potential compromises or malicious activity related to the aware-cr1 infrastructure.

Detects persistence attempts using common Windows auto-start registry keys or scheduled tasks where the initiating process is unsigned or has an invalid signature. The rule focuses on binaries executing from suspicious, user-writable directories (e.g., Temp, AppData, Downloads) and specifically targets persistence mechanisms involving the 'SecurityHealthService.exe' filename.

This rule detects known-malicious activity associated with Warlock ransomware and the ToolShell malware campaign (linked to Storm-2603). It monitors for process, file, and image-load events matching identified malicious file hashes, as well as network connection attempts to known malicious domains and URLs. It also includes monitoring for traffic to 'oastify.com', a domain commonly used for Burp Collaborator, which requires correlation with other indicators to confirm malicious intent.
