This rule detects the execution of common Linux commands used for system information discovery. Specifically, it looks for processes ending with '/uname', '/hostname', '/uptime', '/lspci', '/dmidecode', '/lscpu', and '/lsmod'. These commands are frequently used by adversaries to gather details about the operating system, hardware, and loaded modules on a compromised system.

This rule detects the creation of a property list (.plist) file within the `/Library/StartupItems/` or `/System/Library/StartupItems` directories on macOS. These directories are associated with a deprecated persistence mechanism where files placed within them are automatically executed at boot initialization. Adversaries can leverage this to establish persistence on a compromised system by ensuring their malicious code runs every time the system starts.

This rule detects the execution of 'osacompile' and 'curl' in the same command line. This combination is indicative of in-memory downloading and compiling of applets, a technique observed in the XCSSET malware. 'curl' is used to download content, and 'osacompile' is used to compile AppleScript or JavaScript for Automation (JXA) scripts, which can then be executed.

This rule detects commands executed on Cisco devices that indicate file deletion or disk formatting activities. It specifically looks for keywords like 'erase', 'delete', and 'format' in Cisco AAA logs, which could signify an attempt to remove files from flash file systems or wipe disk structures. This activity can be part of defense evasion or impact tactics by adversaries.

This rule detects suspicious network requests to the Telegram API (api.telegram.org) that do not include a standard 'Telegram' or 'Bot' user-agent string. This behavior is often indicative of malware or custom tools attempting to use Telegram's API for command and control or data exfiltration without revealing their identity as a legitimate Telegram client or bot.

This rule detects HTTP requests where the User-Agent header contains ' WindowsPowerShell/'. This pattern is indicative of PowerShell making web requests, potentially for downloading files, interacting with web services, or command and control activities. This can be a legitimate administrative activity but is also frequently abused by adversaries.
