Detects the correlation of a PowerShell process spawned by Explorer using a bypass execution policy, followed by a local Node.js process accessing web browser cookie files (Chrome, Edge, or Brave). This behavior is indicative of a potential credential theft attempt where an attacker uses PowerShell to prepare the environment and a helper process to extract browser session cookies.

Detects attempts to bypass the Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) in PowerShell processes. This is achieved by monitoring command-line arguments for keywords associated with memory patching or reflection techniques, such as modifying AmsiScanBuffer, AmsiUtils, or interacting with amsi.dll to neutralize security scanning.

Detects PowerShell executing a reflective .NET assembly load, potentially indicative of a backdoor, initiated by a Node.js process. The detection specifically looks for keywords related to .NET Reflection, assembly loading, byte arrays, and a specific C2 domain (hellolargeworld.com:443) or invocation method (Extension.SubRoutine.Run2) within the PowerShell command line. The initiating process is expected to be 'node.exe'.

This rule detects outbound network connections to WhatsApp (whatsapp.com or wa.me) initiated by common scripting engines (powershell.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe). Such activity from these processes is anomalous in typical enterprise environments and may indicate the use of scripts for account compromise, C2 communication, or exfiltration via messaging platforms.

Detects behavioral indicators of the SystemBC (Coroxy) malware, including suspicious task scheduling, hidden PowerShell relaunch routines, use of staging binary names, and anomalous svchost.exe injection patterns. This rule focuses on detecting the multi-stage persistence and proxy behavior typical of SystemBC in pre-ransomware intrusion chains.

Detects the execution of script-based interpreters (wscript.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe) where the command line contains keywords typically associated with downloading or executing remote content (http, ftp, download, invoke, execute). This activity is often used in the initial stages of a malware attack to retrieve and run malicious payloads.

Detects instances of PowerShell being launched directly by explorer.exe. This activity is a known indicator of 'ClickFix' or similar social engineering campaigns, where users are instructed by a deceptive website or lure to copy and paste malicious PowerShell commands into the Windows Run dialog or the File Explorer address bar to execute code.
