Detects a Python process initiating a network connection. While this often relates to package installation, it can also indicate a potential malicious script communicating with a C&C server.
Detects a network connection initiated by "wordpad.exe" over uncommon destination ports.
This might indicate potential process injection activity from a beacon or similar mechanisms.
This might indicate potential process injection activity from a beacon or similar mechanisms.
Detects an initiated network connection over uncommon ports from "dfsvc.exe". A utility used to handled ClickOnce applications.
Detects an a non-browser process interacting with the Reddit API which could indicate use of a covert C2 such as RedditC2
Detects an executable initiating a network connection to "LocaltoNet" tunneling sub-domains.
LocaltoNet is a reverse proxy that enables localhost services to be exposed to the Internet.
Attackers have been seen to use this service for command-and-control activities to bypass MFA and perimeter controls.

Attackers have been seen to use this service for command-and-control activities to bypass MFA and perimeter controls.
Detects a script interpreter wscript/cscript opening a network connection to a non-local network. Adversaries may use script to download malicious payloads.
Detects a non-browser process communicating with the Notion API. This could indicate potential use of a covert C2 channel such as "OffensiveNotion C2"
Adversaries may steal data by exfiltrating it over an un-encrypted network protocol other than that of the existing command and control channel.
The data may also be sent to an alternate network location from the main command and control server.

Detects external IP address lookups by non-browser processes via services such as "api.ipify.org". This could be indicative of potential post compromise internet test activity.

'This hunting query will identify instances where a single user account has seen a high incidence of failed attempts from highly volatile IP addresses
Changing IP address for every password attempt is becoming a more common technique amongst sophisticated threat groups. Often threat groups will randomise
the user agent they are using as well as IP address. This technique has been enabled by the emergence of services providing huge numbers of residential IP
addresses. These services are often enabled through malicious browser plugins. This query is best executed over longer timeframes.
Reduce the timeRange if you have too much data. Results with the highest "IPs", "Failures" and "DaysWithAttempts" are good candidates for further
investigation. This query intentionally does not cluster on UserAgent, IP etc. This query is clustering on the highly volatile IP behaviour.'

This query uncovers seen IPAddressV4 network subnets
Action "PnpDeviceConnected" reports the connection of any plug and play device.

Query #1: look for rare one-time devices connected to a specific machine.
'Query shows 1200+ failed attempts by cIP per hour on server, then successful logon. Only includes > 1 user agent string or port. Could indicate successful probing and brute force success on IIS servers.'
Microsoft Defender for Identity raises alert on suspicious Kerberos ticket, pointing to a potential overpass-the-hash attack.
Once attackers gain credentials for a user with higher privileges, they will use the stolen credentials to sign into other devices and move laterally.
This query finds related sign-in events following overpass-the-hash attack to trace the footprint of the impersonated user.

This query surfaces alerts related to Gootkit and enriches with command and control information, which has been observed delivering ransomware.
This query surfaces devices that are in a specific IPAddressV4 subnet
Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) programs are IT to manage remote endpoints. Attackers have begun to abuse these programs to persist or provide C2 channels.

Query for links opened from mail apps - if a detection occurred right afterwards.
As there are many links opened from mails, to have a successful hunt we should have some filter or join with some other signal,.
Such as suspicious processes, network connections, etc.
Therefore, in this example, we query for alerts that might be related to links sent via email.
This could be indicative of a phishing or spear-phishing attacks.
Tags: #EmailLink, #Phishing, #GetNearbyAlerts.
Explaining the underlying data:.
This query uses the BrowserLaunchedToOpenUrl event, that includes clicks on http:// or https:// links (clicks outside of browsers), or on .lnk files.
For this event, RemoteUrl contains the opened URL.
