Detects the creation of a local user account (Event ID 4720) where the account name mimics system service accounts such as 'svchost', 'lsass', or 'winlogon'. Adversaries often use such names to blend into legitimate system activity and avoid detection.
Detects unauthorized processes reading, copying, or renaming Kerberos ticket cache files (ccache) located in common temporary directories. This behavior is often associated with credential theft and potential Pass the Ticket attacks where adversaries attempt to extract session credentials to perform lateral movement or privilege escalation.
Detects the creation of a local user account (Event ID 4720) where the account name mimics system service accounts such as 'svchost', 'lsass', or 'winlogon'. Adversaries often use such names to blend into legitimate system activity and avoid detection.
Detects outbound network connections to common MQTT ports (1883, 8883) initiated by living-off-the-land binaries, command interpreters, or unknown processes. This behavior may indicate an attacker using MQTT as a covert C2 channel to bypass network filtering by mimicking legitimate IoT protocol traffic.
Detects potentially unauthorized or suspicious usage of the Jam build tool (jam.exe or jamplus.exe). The rule flags when Jam is executed by non-standard parent processes, when suspicious command-line arguments are used, when Jam spawns unexpected child processes, or when Jam initiates network connections.
Detects modifications or deletions of Conditional Access policies in an environment. This includes disabling policies or altering key configurations like users, groups, applications, platforms, or locations, which could be indicative of an attacker attempting to bypass security controls or maintain persistent access.
Detects the creation or modification of Azure Storage Account management policies that include rules configured to delete blobs, snapshots, or versions in less than 30 days. This behavior may indicate an attempt at data destruction or unauthorized cleanup of cloud storage objects.
This rule detects potential file staging or persistence activities by identifying executable, library, or script files that are created in temporary folders and subsequently deleted within a short timeframe (300 seconds). This behavioral pattern is characteristic of attackers moving tools, staging payloads, or cleaning up tracks after executing malicious scripts or binaries within common directory structures like '\Temp\', '\AppData\', or '\Windows\Temp\'.
Detects the use of the built-in Windows utility 'certutil.exe' with arguments commonly used to download remote content (-urlcache -split -f) or decode base64 encoded files (-decode, -decodehex), when the output or operation occurs within temporary system directories such as Temp, AppData, or ProgramData, and the process is not signed by Microsoft.
Detects the execution of mshta.exe with a remote HTTP or HTTPS URL in the command line. This technique is commonly used by adversaries to execute malicious HTA files or scripts directly from a web server, bypassing traditional application whitelisting and browser-based security controls by leveraging a trusted, signed Windows utility.
