This rule detects when an application has been uninstalled from a Windows system. It specifically looks for MsiInstaller events with EventIDs 1034 (Windows Installer removed the product) or 11724 (Product Removal Successful). This can be an indicator of an adversary attempting to remove security software or other critical applications to hinder detection or response efforts, or simply to clean up their tracks.

This rule detects successful logon events (EventID 4624) where the LogonType is 9, which signifies a new credentials logon. This logon type is typically associated with the 'RunAs' command or similar functionality, where a user explicitly provides alternate credentials to execute a program or access a resource. Adversaries may use this technique to execute code with different user privileges or to move laterally within an environment using stolen or compromised credentials.

This rule detects suspicious access attempts to the registry key associated with the Azure AD Health monitoring agent. It specifically looks for Event IDs 4656 (handle to an object was requested) or 4663 (an attempt was made to access an object) on the registry key '\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Online\Reporting\MonitoringAgent'. The rule filters out access attempts made by legitimate Azure AD Health monitoring agent processes to reduce false positives. This detection requires specific SACL auditing to be configured on the registry key.

Detects obfuscated PowerShell commands being executed via standard input (stdin) by monitoring Windows Security Event ID 4697. The rule looks for specific keywords like 'set', '&&', 'environment', 'invoke', and '${input)' within the ServiceFileName field, which can indicate attempts to bypass detection by passing obfuscated scripts or commands directly to PowerShell.

Detects obfuscated use of stdin to execute PowerShell commands, specifically looking for the creation of a service with a command line containing 'cmd', 'powershell', input redirection ('${input}'), 'noexit', and command execution flags (' /c ', ' /r '). This pattern is indicative of techniques used by tools like Invoke-Obfuscation to hide malicious PowerShell execution.

Detects obfuscated use of environment variables to execute PowerShell commands. This technique is often used by adversaries to evade detection by security products. The rule specifically looks for the creation of a service with a command-line containing 'cmd', 'set', '-f', and either '/c' or '/r', which are indicative of a PowerShell command being constructed and executed via environment variables.
