This rule detects an unusually high number of command-line executions containing keywords related to 'dependency' or 'library' and 'update' or 'upgrade' within a one-hour window on a single computer. This behavior could indicate an adversary attempting to modify system components, install malicious libraries, or compromise the software supply chain by frequently updating or upgrading software dependencies.
This rule detects a high volume of file creation events (100 or more within an hour) occurring in common development-related directories such as 'node_modules', 'packages', or 'vendor'. This activity can be indicative of legitimate software development processes like dependency installation or project builds. However, it can also signal malicious activity, particularly if observed on systems not typically used for development, or as part of a supply chain compromise where malicious dependencies are being introduced or built.
This rule detects an unusually high number of network connections made by common package managers (npm, nuget, pip) to their respective repositories. A high volume of connections within a short period (1 hour) could indicate automated activity, potential supply chain compromise, or an adversary attempting to download numerous packages for reconnaissance, staging, or malicious purposes.
This rule detects when a single process modifies or creates three or more YAML files ('.yaml' or '.yml' extensions) within folders containing 'config' or 'pipeline' in their path, within a one-hour window. This behavior could indicate an attacker modifying configuration or deployment files, potentially for persistence, defense evasion, or impact.
This rule detects potential credential harvesting attempts by identifying emails that contain keywords commonly associated with phishing (e.g., 'password', 'update', 'verify' in the subject) and URLs that suggest login or account pages (e.g., 'form', 'login', 'account'). It aggregates these events from the same sender over a one-hour period and flags senders with three or more such emails.
This rule detects a high frequency of process creations (Event ID 4688) with command-line arguments containing keywords indicative of software publishing or deployment, such as 'publish', 'deploy', 'artifact', or 'release'. A count of 3 or more such events within a one-hour window from the same computer and account is considered suspicious. This pattern could indicate legitimate CI/CD activities, but also potential abuse of software deployment tools or a software supply chain compromise by an adversary.
This rule detects an unusually high number of network connections made by common package managers (npm, nuget, pip) to their respective repositories. A high volume of connections within a short period (1 hour) could indicate automated activity, potential supply chain compromise, or an adversary attempting to download numerous packages for reconnaissance, staging, or malicious purposes.
Detects the creation of files ending with '.sig', '.asc', or '.cer'. These extensions are commonly associated with digital signatures, PGP/GPG keys, and certificates, which could indicate activities like code signing, certificate generation/import, or PGP/GPG key manipulation by an adversary.
This rule detects multiple instances of PowerShell executing commands that include 'DownloadString' within a one-hour window on the same computer and by the same account. This behavior is often associated with adversaries attempting to download and execute malicious scripts or files from remote sources.
This rule detects repeated execution of commands containing both 'version' and 'control' keywords within the command line. It specifically looks for at least 5 such executions within a one-hour window on the same computer by the same account. This pattern could indicate an adversary attempting to enumerate system or software versions, or interact with version control systems, potentially as part of reconnaissance or privilege escalation.
