This rule detects the deletion of the 'SD' (Security Descriptor) value within the `\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule\TaskCache\Tree\` registry hive. This action is typically performed by adversaries to hide scheduled tasks, making them less visible to standard enumeration tools. This technique has been observed in use by the Tarrask malware.

This modification can be used by adversaries to change the default location of an EVTX log file, thereby hindering log collection and alerting mechanisms. The rule specifically looks for changes to the 'File' value in any EventLog service subkey, excluding changes that merely point to the default 'System32\Winevt\Logs\' directory.
