Detects the creation of scheduled tasks that use `schtasks.exe` to execute `rundll32.exe`. This is a common technique used by attackers for persistence and to execute malicious DLLs, often to bypass application whitelisting or other security controls.
Detects attempts to load critical system DLLs (ntdll.dll, kernel32.dll, user32.dll, advapi32.dll) from non-standard or suspicious file paths. This behavior can indicate an attempt to inject malicious code or evade detection by using modified or malicious versions of legitimate system modules.
This rule detects suspicious process creations where common system processes (svchost.exe, explorer.exe, lsass.exe, winlogon.exe) act as parent processes for scripting or command-line interpreters (powershell.exe, cmd.exe, cscript.exe, wscript.exe) and the child process runs with a low or untrusted integrity level. This pattern can indicate process injection or other forms of malicious execution where an attacker attempts to hide their activity by masquerading as legitimate system processes.
This rule detects suspicious network connections originating from internal IP addresses to common service ports (DNS, SMB, RDP, WinRM) on remote, non-internal IP addresses. It flags instances where a single process on a device makes 10 or more such connections within an hour, which could indicate reconnaissance, lateral movement, or data exfiltration attempts.
Detects attempts to delete volume shadow copies using 'vssadmin' or 'wmic shadowcopy' commands. Adversaries often delete shadow copies to prevent system recovery and hinder forensic analysis, especially during ransomware attacks or data destruction efforts.
This rule detects the installation of new Windows services (EventID 7045) where the service's executable path (ServiceFileName) contains common scripting interpreters like 'cmd', 'powershell', or 'wscript'. This pattern can indicate an adversary attempting to establish persistence or execute malicious code via a newly created service that leverages scripting capabilities.
Detects attempts to load critical system DLLs (ntdll.dll, kernel32.dll, user32.dll, advapi32.dll) from non-standard or suspicious file paths. This behavior can indicate an attempt to inject malicious code or evade detection by using modified or malicious versions of legitimate system modules.
This rule detects the execution of processes with command-line arguments indicative of Mimikatz usage. It specifically looks for the strings 'mimikatz', 'sekurlsa', or 'privilege::debug' in the command line of newly created processes (EventID 4688). This activity is commonly associated with credential dumping.
This rule detects suspicious modifications to registry keys under 'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies' where the registry value data contains '.exe' or '.dll'. Such changes, especially multiple occurrences within a short timeframe (3 or more changes within an hour), can indicate ransomware activity attempting to alter file associations or execution policies to maintain persistence or execute malicious payloads.
Detects suspicious execution patterns indicative of ransomware utilizing batch scripts. This rule triggers when 'cmd.exe' or 'powershell.exe' execute at least 5 times within a 5-minute window, with command lines containing '.bat', '.cmd', or '/c', suggesting automated script execution often seen in ransomware attacks.
