This rule detects suspicious activity involving the WebDAV client, specifically looking for scenarios where WebDAV connections to public IPs are initiated from a process that has recently modified the RunMRU registry key to include WebDAV parameters and executables like 'cmd' or 'net use', and has also accessed clipboard data. This combination of behaviors suggests potential credential theft or lateral movement attempts using WebDAV.

This rule detects when two different MSI installations, both related to known VPN clients (Pulse Secure, Fortinet, Ivanti, GlobalProtect), occur on the same device within a short timeframe. This could indicate an attempt to establish redundant access, bypass security controls, or an unusual administrative activity.

Detects the use of the klist utility via cmd.exe to enumerate active authentication credentials (Kerberos tickets) on a host. This discovery step is consistently used by threat actors, such as LeakNet, to map out accessible credentials before attempting lateral movement with tools like PsExec.

This rule detects the access or creation of Microsoft Office files (docx, xlsx, pptx) that have 'password' or related keywords in their filename or folder path. It also attempts to identify if these files contain password-related content through DLP indicators, suggesting potential sensitive data exposure or staging.

This rule detects the execution of common accessibility tools (osk.exe, powershell.exe, pwsh.exe, cmd.exe, reg.exe) with command-line arguments indicating an attempt to modify or leverage Windows accessibility features for persistence or privilege escalation. Specifically, it looks for command lines referencing 'Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Accessibility' and 'ATConfig\osk' or 'Accessibility\Session'. This behavior is often associated with adversaries attempting to maintain access or elevate privileges by manipulating accessibility programs like the On-Screen Keyboard.

Detects potential adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) session hijacking by identifying a single session ID being used in successful sign-ins from multiple distinct IP addresses and with different User-Agent strings within a short timeframe. This behavior is indicative of an attacker stealing a session cookie and replaying it from their own machine, a technique commonly used by phishing kits like Tycoon2FA.

This rule detects potential GraphRunner activity in Azure environments by identifying suspicious authentication attempts to Microsoft Graph using the 'deviceCode' authentication protocol, combined with specific user agent strings associated with the GraphRunner tool. It categorizes detections into high confidence (both device code and suspicious user agent), device code authentication only, or suspicious user agent only.

This rule detects impossible travel scenarios for user sign-ins that occur shortly after a device associated with that user has been wiped, retired, or deleted. It calculates the speed between consecutive sign-in locations for the same user and flags any travel exceeding 900 km/h, indicating a potential compromise or fraudulent activity.

Correlates an email URL click with a subsequent risky sign-in from the same user within a short timeframe. This pattern is a strong indicator of a successful Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) phishing attack, such as those conducted with the Tycoon2FA kit, where a user is tricked into authenticating through a malicious site, allowing the attacker to capture their session.

Detects when a single user account successfully signs in from two or more distinct IP addresses within a short timeframe. This can be an indicator of an adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) attack where both the legitimate user and the attacker have active, authenticated sessions from different locations.

Detects instances where the telnetd process spawns the login binary with the '-f' flag. This behavior is indicative of exploitation of CVE-2026-24061, which allows an attacker to bypass authentication by injecting arguments into the login process via a crafted USER environment variable.

Detects a FortiGate configuration file download followed by the creation of a new computer account in Active Directory by the 'fortidcagent' service account within a short time window. This pattern may indicate an attacker has compromised a FortiGate appliance, extracted credentials from the configuration, and is now using them to join a rogue device to the domain for lateral movement.

Detects when the same AWS IAM user ARN performs actions from more than one distinct source IP within a 1-hour window. Indicative of session hijacking, credential sharing, or AiTM compromise where attacker egress IP differs from the victim's IP. AssumedRole is excluded by default due to high noise from automation — add back with tuned ARN exclusions if needed.

Detects a FortiGate configuration file download occurring within 10 minutes of a successful administrative login from the same user and source IP address. This rapid sequence of events can indicate an attacker who has gained administrative access and is proceeding to exfiltrate sensitive configuration data, which may contain credentials for other systems.
