Detects the use of PowerShell to modify Windows Defender exclusions by adding the 'C:\' drive root as an exclusion path. This technique, which can be executed via 'Add-MpPreference', 'Set-MpPreference', or 'Invoke-CimMethod', effectively disables real-time scanning across the entire system drive and is often employed by adversaries to hide malicious activity from antivirus detection.

Detects artifacts associated with the CRUDEEXCLUDE Delphi-based loader, which is used to deploy the HEAVYGRAM backdoor. The rule identifies a combination of Delphi indicators, anti-analysis sandbox connectivity checks, decoy message boxes, and attempts to modify Windows Defender exclusions for specific paths associated with the malware's activity.

This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with or bypass Windows Defender by monitoring for files or processes named 'ShieldCrash' occurring in close temporal proximity to the creation or modification of files within Windows Defender's shadow or scan directories (BaseNamedObjects\Restricted\WD_SHADOW_ or WD_SCAN). This behavior is often associated with malware attempting to evade security detection.

Detects rapid deletion and creation cycles of the WD_SCAN object manager link, a behavioral pattern associated with a Time-of-Check-to-Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) exploit chain targeting Windows Defender (referenced as CVE-2026-69414). The rule monitors for at least three cycle events occurring within a 5-second window, specifically involving the 'WD_SCAN' object identifier.

Detects the CastleRAT intermediate loader, which acts as a secondary stage before deploying SloppyRAT. The rule identifies the malicious payload by scanning for unique embedded strings, specific user-agent strings, and command-and-control (C2) communication patterns (domains and URI paths) within executable files.
