This rule detects modifications to Windows service executable paths or service paths (ImagePath, ServicePath) where the new value points to common temporary directories (Temp, AppData, %temp%). This behavior can indicate an attempt by an adversary to persist on a system by modifying legitimate services to execute malicious payloads from temporary locations, often used for staging or evasion.
This rule detects suspicious downloads of Python packages from pypi.org or pypi.python.org by pip or python executables. It specifically looks for a high volume (5 or more) of downloads of common package names (numpy, requests, pandas, util, common) within a one-hour window from a single device. This could indicate an attempt to compromise the software supply chain by introducing malicious versions of popular packages.
This rule detects suspicious process creations where the command line contains keywords indicative of keylogger activity (e.g., 'keylog', 'keystroke', 'inputmanipulator', 'spyware') combined with installation-related keywords (e.g., 'install', 'create', 'load', 'run'). It aggregates these events by computer and user over one-hour intervals to identify potential keylogger installation attempts.
This rule detects devices making a high volume of DNS queries (50 or more within a 5-minute window) to domains that have 4 or more subdomains and are not common legitimate services like microsoft.com, google.com, or amazon.com. This pattern can be indicative of DNS beaconing, a technique used by adversaries for command and control (C2) communication or data exfiltration.
This rule detects the execution of Living Off The Land Binaries (LOLBins) such as certutil.exe, msiexec.exe, regsvcs.exe, regasm.exe, rundll32.exe, cscript.exe, and wscript.exe, when their command lines contain keywords indicative of malicious activity like 'download', 'encode', 'decode', 'http', 'ftp', or 'javascript'. It specifically filters out executions originating from explorer.exe or svchost.exe to reduce false positives and triggers when two or more such events occur within an hour on the same computer by the same user.
This rule detects suspicious activity involving the creation or update of managed identities and the assignment of highly privileged roles (Contributor, Owner, User Access Administrator) to them. It specifically looks for multiple such assignments within a one-hour window to managed identities associated with automation, runbook, or function resources, indicating potential privilege escalation or malicious access.
This rule detects an account performing multiple interactive logons (LogonType 2) from at least 3 unique IP addresses within a 5-minute window. This behavior can indicate credential compromise or an adversary attempting to move laterally or access multiple systems using stolen credentials.
This rule detects the execution of common command-line interpreters (powershell.exe, cmd.exe, cscript.exe) or generic executables from suspicious user-writable directories such as 'Temp', 'AppData', 'Downloads', or 'Public'. It specifically excludes 'msbuild.exe' and 'dotnet.exe' to reduce false positives. A high count (3 or more) of such events within an hour for a given computer and user is flagged as an anomaly, indicating potential malicious activity like malware execution or persistence.
This rule detects when two or more files with suspicious names (e.g., 'update.exe', 'temp.exe', 'setup.exe') are created within a short timeframe (1 hour) in common user-writable directories such as 'Temp', 'AppData', 'Downloads', or 'Public'. This pattern can indicate the dropping of malicious payloads or staging of files by an adversary.
This rule detects successful network connections to remote URLs associated with AlphV/BlackCat ransomware, including payment sites. It specifically looks for 'alphv', 'blackcat', 'noname', or 'ransom-payment' within the RemoteUrl field of DeviceNetworkEvents.
