Detects anomalous file activity on removable media drives characteristic of the Gamaredon group's PteroOdd/PteroSetup malware. The rule identifies PowerShell, wscript.exe, or cscript.exe writing autorun.inf or .lnk files to removable drive letters (D-Z), which is a common technique for lateral movement and propagation via USB drives.

Detects instances where the WinRAR utility process creates, writes, or drops a file into the Windows Startup folder. This behavior is a common technique used by adversaries to achieve persistence, as any executable placed in this folder will automatically run upon user login.

Detects attempts to disable or modify critical Linux security subsystems including SELinux and AppArmor. The rule monitors for the execution of commands such as setenforce, aa-teardown, and systemctl, or direct modifications to security configuration files.

Detects unauthorized modification or dropping of model files directly into the local Hugging Face cache directory (~/.cache/huggingface/hub) by non-standard development processes, indicating an attempt to swap legitimate models for backdoored ones.

This rule monitors for suspicious activity related to Microsoft Exchange server exploitation and persistence techniques. It detects three distinct behaviors: the creation of web shell files (.aspx, .ashx, .asmx) within Exchange directories (OWA/ECP), the spawning of shell processes (cmd, powershell) by the w3wp.exe web server process, and DLL sideloading occurring through identified signed binaries (dfsvc.exe, rasautou.exe) outside of standard system directories.

Detects the creation or modification of '.config' or '.exe.config' files within commonly user-writable directories such as AppData, Temp, Downloads, or Desktop. These files are often used by .NET applications to define behavior, and attackers may manipulate them to perform activities such as assembly redirection, loading malicious DLLs, or altering security settings for elevated processes.

This rule correlates multiple suspicious activities indicative of ransomware or destructive attacks. It detects a combination of volume shadow copy deletion, bulk file modifications, creation of suspicious scheduled tasks, and network connections occurring during periods of high file write activity. The rule triggers when multiple signals are observed or when specific high-fidelity destructive indicators are present.

Detects unauthorized access, modification, or deletion attempts against common web browser credential storage files (key4.db, logins.json, and Microsoft Edge 'Login Data'). These files store sensitive authentication information, and non-browser processes interacting with them are indicative of credential harvesting attempts.

This rule detects unauthorized access, creation, or modification of browser-specific sensitive credential files (such as 'Login Data' or 'cookies.sqlite') by processes that are not recognized web browsers or trusted update services. This behavior is a common indicator of information-stealer malware attempting to harvest session cookies and stored credentials.

Detects attempts to extract the Security Account Manager (SAM) database, either by using the 'reg save' utility to export registry hives containing the SAM or by directly creating/modifying the SAM file on disk outside of known legitimate system processes.

This rule detects a high frequency of file rename or modification events targeting files with extensions commonly associated with ransomware. It filters out activity from processes signed by trusted vendors like Microsoft, Symantec, Sophos, and Trend Micro to reduce noise, flagging mass rename operations that could indicate an active ransomware encryption process.

Detects the modification or creation of registry values under the Windows Local Security Authority (LSA) configuration key, specifically targeting the 'Authentication Packages' or 'Security Packages' values. Adversaries often use these registry locations to inject custom DLLs that are loaded by the LSA process (lsass.exe) at system boot for persistence or credential dumping.

Detects the use of PowerShell commands that modify file system metadata (e.g., CreationTime, LastWriteTime, LastAccessTime). This technique, often referred to as 'timestomping', is used by adversaries to manipulate file timestamps to evade detection or hide activity.

This rule detects indicators of Adversary-in-the-Middle (AiTM) phishing infrastructure, specifically targeting Evilginx2 and similar proxy frameworks. It identifies unauthorized execution of Evilginx2 binaries, the presence of specific session and configuration files (.evilginx/, phishlets, session databases), unauthorized modifications to Nginx configurations, and the dropping of suspicious HTML lure files into web document roots by scripting interpreters.

Detects unauthorized processes attempting to read, modify, or create files within common browser credential locations (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Windows Credential Manager). Legitimate browser processes and their known signers are excluded, focusing on suspicious secondary processes or tools frequently utilized by infostealers like Lumma and RedLine to dump credentials.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by monitoring for two key signals: interaction with known canary/trap files designed to detect unauthorized access, and rapid, mass file modification of common user data extensions within a short timeframe. Either behavior is indicative of encryption or automated file destruction processes typical of ransomware attacks.

This rule detects the creation or modification of specific Launch Agent or Launch Daemon plist files on macOS, particularly those masquerading as 'com.apple.accountsd'. It also identifies the creation of a hidden directory '.com.apple.accountsd' within '/Library/Application Support'. This activity is highly suspicious as it indicates an attempt to establish persistence or execute malicious code by mimicking legitimate system services.

Detects the creation, reading, or execution of payloads stored within NTFS Alternate Data Streams (ADS). This technique is commonly used by adversaries to hide malicious content within file metadata to evade security tools. The rule monitors process command-line arguments for ADS syntax, identifies usage of utilities like type, Get-Content, wmic, or various LOLBins (e.g., regsvr32, rundll32) interacting with ADS paths, and flags anomalous file creation/modification events that involve ADS, excluding known system-generated streams.
