This rule detects the use of PowerShell to modify Microsoft Defender settings to disable real-time, behavior, and IOAV protection, while simultaneously adding a full-drive exclusion for the root directory (C:\). This behavior is characteristic of an adversary attempting to disable security monitoring to facilitate further malicious activity or avoid detection.

Detects anomalous sign-in behavior where a device code authentication flow is initiated from one location, but the resulting session is replayed from a different IP address in a different country within a one-hour window. This behavior is indicative of an adversary capturing an authentication token via a device code phishing or relay attack and attempting to use it from their own infrastructure to bypass conditional access policies and MFA.

Detects inbound emails masquerading as reputable advisory firms (PwC or KPMG) using lookalike sender domains, combined with wire-transfer fraud phrases in the subject line. Correlates with identity logon telemetry for the same fraudulent WhatsApp Business phone number, enabling detection across both email and authentication channels. Note: message body content is not available in the EmailEvents schema, so fraud-phrase matching is subject-only.
