This rule detects activity associated with the WannaCry ransomware. It specifically looks for the creation of processes with image names commonly used by WannaCry variants (e.g., 'tasksche.exe', 'mssecsvc.exe', 'WanaDecryptor' in the image path) or command lines containing the WannaCry ransom note filename ('@Please_Read_Me@.txt').

Detects the execution of a Windows system binary that is usually located in the system folder from an uncommon location. This can indicate an attempt by an adversary to masquerade malicious executables as legitimate system processes to evade detection.

Detects DNS queries containing patterns associated with Kerberos coercion attacks via DNS object spoofing.
The pattern "1UWhRCAAAAA..BAAAA" is a base64-encoded signature that corresponds to a marshaled CREDENTIAL_TARGET_INFORMATION structure.
Attackers can use this technique to coerce authentication from victim systems to attacker-controlled hosts.
It is one of the strong indicators of a Kerberos coercion attack, where adversaries manipulate DNS records
to spoof Service Principal Names (SPNs) and redirect authentication requests like CVE-2025-33073.

Detects the presence of "UWhRC....AAYBAAAA" pattern in command line.
The pattern "1UWhRCAAAAA..BAAAA" is a base64-encoded signature that corresponds to a marshaled CREDENTIAL_TARGET_INFORMATION structure.
Attackers can use this technique to coerce authentication from victim systems to attacker-controlled hosts.
It is one of the strong indicators of a Kerberos coercion attack, where adversaries manipulate DNS records
to spoof Service Principal Names (SPNs) and redirect authentication requests like in CVE-2025-33073.
If you see this pattern in the command line, it is likely an attempt to add spoofed Service Principal Names (SPNs) to DNS records,
or checking for the presence of such records through the `nslookup` command.

Detects BitLocker Access Agent Update Utility (baaupdate.exe) loading DLLs from suspicious, publicly writable locations. This activity could indicate an attempt at lateral movement via BitLocker DCOM & COM Hijacking, abusing the BDEUILauncher Class to execute code in the logged-on user's session without credential theft.

This rule detects the addition of an AppX package to the "to be processed" pipeline when the package is located in an uncommon directory. AppX packages are a Windows application packaging format. Adversaries may leverage this mechanism to deploy malicious applications or achieve persistence. The rule specifically filters out common and legitimate installation paths and sources, such as Program Files, WindowsApps, SystemApps, and Microsoft-related CDN URLs, to reduce false positives. Detection is based on Event ID 854 from the AppXDeployment-Server log source.

This rule detects the creation of remote threads by a specific list of uncommon processes. These processes are often legitimate Windows executables or common applications that are not typically expected to create remote threads in other processes. Such activity can be indicative of process injection techniques used by adversaries for defense evasion or privilege escalation. The rule includes filters to reduce false positives from known legitimate remote thread creations by some of these processes.

Detects the creation of files with executable or script extensions by Microsoft Office applications. This behavior can indicate an attempt to drop and execute malicious code, often associated with initial access or execution phases of an attack. The rule specifically looks for common Office applications creating files with extensions like .exe, .dll, .ps1, .vbs, etc., while filtering out known legitimate activities.

This rule detects suspicious access to files with sensitive extensions commonly associated with email archives, database files, memory dumps, and remote desktop connection files. Monitoring access to these file types can indicate attempts at data collection, credential dumping, or lateral movement preparation by adversaries.
