Detects suspicious child processes spawned by the CrushFTP service that may indicate exploitation of remote code execution vulnerabilities such as CVE-2025-31161, where attackers can achieve RCE through crafted HTTP requests. The detection focuses on commonly abused Windows executables (like powershell.exe, cmd.exe etc.) that attackers typically use post-exploitation to execute malicious commands.

Detects the dropping and potential execution of DarkGate loader components, specifically AutoIt scripts (.au3) or compiled AutoIt executables (autoit3.exe), within the C:\temp directory. This activity is indicative of DarkGate malware infection attempts, often leveraging vulnerabilities like CVE-2024-21412.

This rule detects the execution of the 'sysctl' command on macOS with specific arguments ('hw.', 'kern.', or 'machdep.'). Threat actors and malware commonly use 'sysctl' with these arguments to gather system hardware information, often as part of virtualization or sandbox evasion techniques. By querying system properties, adversaries can determine if they are operating in an analysis environment and adjust their behavior accordingly.

Detects when the Time Machine backup utility is disabled on macOS using the `tmutil` command-line tool. This action can be performed by an attacker to prevent system backups, hindering recovery efforts after an attack.

Detects the execution of PowerShell scripts that use the 'Start-NetEventSession' cmdlet to initiate network event and packet capture. This activity can be leveraged by adversaries to sniff network traffic, potentially capturing sensitive information like user credentials, especially when transmitted over unencrypted protocols. This technique is often used for information gathering during an operation.

0025
This rule detects attempts to delete macOS Time Machine backups using the native utility "tmutil" with the 'delete' command. Adversaries may perform this action to prevent victims from restoring their files, often as a precursor to a ransomware attack or other data destruction activities.

Detects the addition of a new "Allow" firewall rule by the WMI process (WmiPrvSE.EXE). This can occur if an attacker leverages PowerShell cmdlets such as "New-NetFirewallRule", or directly uses WMI CIM classes such as "MSFT_NetFirewallRule". This activity is often associated with defense evasion tactics to allow adversary communications or lateral movement.
