This rule detects suspicious PowerShell activity involving the mounting of a disk image (like ISO or VHD) and then immediately invoking an item from that mounted image. This technique is often used by adversaries to bypass Mark-of-the-Web (MOTW) protections, as files extracted or run from mounted disk images may not inherit the MOTW flag, allowing malicious payloads to execute without security warnings.

Detects the execution of 7-Zip (7z.exe, 7za.exe, 7zr.exe) to compress files with extensions like '.dmp', '.dump', or '.hdmp'. This activity is often a precursor to data exfiltration, where memory dump files or other sensitive data are compressed for easier transfer.

Detects the use of the built-in Windows utility bitsadmin.exe to download files. This utility is often abused by adversaries for ingress tool transfer, as it can bypass certain network restrictions and is a living-off-the-land binary (LOLBIN). The rule specifically looks for the execution of bitsadmin.exe with command-line arguments indicative of file transfer operations, such as '/transfer', '/create', '/addfile', and the presence of 'http' to signify a URL download.

This rule detects the execution of 'git.exe' or 'git-remote-https.exe' when attempting to clone a remote repository. The detection is specifically triggered if the command line arguments contain keywords commonly associated with exploits, vulnerabilities, or proof-of-concept code, such as 'exploit', 'Vulns', 'vulnerability', 'RemoteCodeExecution', 'Invoke-', 'CVE-', 'poc-', 'ProofOfConcept', 'proxyshell', 'log4shell', 'eternalblue', 'eternal-blue', or 'MS17-'. This aims to identify reconnaissance activities where adversaries might be searching for or downloading publicly available exploit code.
