Detects Windows Explorer (explorer.exe) initiating outbound network connections over port 445 (SMB) to non-private, external IP addresses. This behavior aligns with the zero-click authentication coercion vulnerability (CVE-2026-32202) where Explorer automatically reaches out to a remote UNC path to fetch an icon resource, leaking NTLM hashes.

This rule detects outbound network connections from endpoints to specific, potentially suspicious, IPv4 address ranges (162.220.234.0/24 and 162.220.232.0/24). Such connections could indicate command and control (C2) activity, data exfiltration, or communication with malicious infrastructure.

Detects PowerShell processes executing commands that include base64 decoding (FromBase64String), invoking expressions (IEX), creating web client objects (New-Object Net.WebClient), and making HTTP/HTTPS requests. This combination is often indicative of malicious PowerShell activity, such as downloading and executing payloads from remote servers, potentially obfuscated.

This rule detects instances where MSBuild.exe initiates network connections to external IP addresses. MSBuild.exe is a legitimate Microsoft utility, but it can be abused by adversaries to proxy execution of malicious code and establish command and control (C2) communications. The rule filters out connections to internal, loopback, and non-routable IP spaces to focus on potentially malicious external communication attempts.

This rule detects instances where a 'node.exe' process initiates an outbound network connection over HTTPS (port 443) to a domain within the '.vercel.app' top-level domain. This could indicate development activity, but also potential malicious use of Node.js applications for command and control or data exfiltration to cloud services.

This rule detects the execution of a 'curl' command on macOS that attempts to make a POST request to a file named 'salmonela' within the '/tmp/' directory. This pattern is highly suspicious and could indicate an attempt to exfiltrate data, upload malicious content, or interact with a temporary malicious script.

This rule detects suspicious processes (winupdate.exe, windows.exe, svchost.exe, system32.exe) initiating network connections from unusual directories (Downloads, Public, System32) to known cloud storage providers (Amazon AWS, DigitalOcean, Azure Blob Storage) or over port 443. This behavior could indicate data exfiltration, command and control activity, or malware communication.

This rule detects DNS queries made to a list of known malicious domains. These domains are often associated with malware command and control (C2) infrastructure or other malicious activities. Monitoring such queries can help identify compromised systems attempting to communicate with adversary-controlled resources.

This rule detects the specific command and control check-in format used by the PhantomPull loader to retrieve the final PhantomPulse payload. It monitors for the URL pattern '/v1/updates/check?build=payloads' within process command lines on Windows systems, indicating communication with the PhantomPulse C2 infrastructure.

Detects instances where Windows screen capture tools (Snipping Tool or Screen Sketch) initiate network connections to external IP addresses on ports commonly associated with Server Message Block (SMB) or Common Internet File System (CIFS). This could indicate an attempt to exfiltrate captured screenshots to an external server.
