Detects registry value modifications to the Windows Explorer RunMRU key where the data contains indicators of obfuscated PowerShell commands. This pattern is commonly associated with the 'ClickFix' social-engineering campaign, where users are prompted to copy and paste a malicious PowerShell command into the Windows Run dialog.
Detects suspicious modifications to Windows Registry keys associated with URL protocol handlers or automatic startup mechanisms. Adversaries often use custom URL schemes or registry run keys to maintain persistence or execute malicious code when a specific protocol is invoked or upon user logon.
Detects multiple endpoints setting their desktop wallpaper to a common file located on a remote UNC path or containing 'sysvol'. This behavior is often indicative of GPO-based configuration for persistence or malware staging, where a malicious 'payload.jpg' is used as a cover or to deliver code via vulnerabilities in image parsing libraries.
Detects persistence establishment for the NetSupport Manager remote access tool (client32.exe) via common Windows techniques including registry run keys, Winlogon configuration, service creation, and scheduled tasks. This activity is often associated with the abuse of legitimate RMM software as a covert remote access implant, frequently following initial access via PowerShell or script-based loaders.
Detects unauthorized or suspicious persistence attempts where Windows Package Manager (WinGet) configuration processes (ConfigurationRemotingServer.exe or WindowsPackageManagerServer.exe) write to the Windows 'Run' registry keys in HKLM. This behavior can be abused to execute malicious code automatically at system startup.
Detects modifications to Windows Registry persistence locations (Run, RunOnce, Winlogon Shell/Userinit) where the assigned executable path is located within high-risk directories such as Temp, AppData, or Users Public folders. This is a common technique used by malware for persistence.
This rule detects potential persistence mechanisms involving the creation of 'Locked' registry keys within Software\Classes and subsequent use of Run registry keys that reference 'Locked://' URIs. It also identifies suspicious execution of rundll32.exe utilizing specific CLSID-based command line arguments associated with the '{CFDC57BA-1705-45AF-BA10-EFC3D592982B}' identifier, often linked to malicious activity patterns.
Detects the execution of reg.exe with the 'save' command to extract the SAM, SYSTEM, or SECURITY registry hives to disk. This technique is commonly used by attackers to offline extract credential hashes, facilitating pass-the-hash attacks and lateral movement.
Detects potential persistence and network persistence mechanisms associated with the MSP360 RMM agent. The rule correlates the creation of a Windows service for RMM.Agent.exe or RMM.Agent.Launcher.exe with the addition of a firewall rule allowing UDP traffic on port 48678 by netsh or PowerShell, occurring within a one-hour window.
Detects potential persistence and network persistence mechanisms associated with the MSP360 RMM agent. The rule correlates the creation of a Windows service for RMM.Agent.exe or RMM.Agent.Launcher.exe with the addition of a firewall rule allowing UDP traffic on port 48678 by netsh or PowerShell, occurring within a one-hour window.
Detects a suspicious sequence of events where a process modifies a Windows Registry Run key to ensure execution at logon, followed shortly by the same executable file being copied into the current user's startup folder. This pattern is often used by malware to establish persistence.
Detects potential persistence attempts via registry modifications involving rundll32.exe. The rule monitors for two patterns: registry keys associated with shell commands for specific file types triggering rundll32.exe, and registry 'Run' keys using a 'Locked' value name with a custom URI handler, often indicative of malware or suspicious persistence mechanisms.
This rule detects modifications to Windows Registry 'Run' or 'RunOnce' keys where the configured value points to a file located in common user-writable or temporary directories (AppData, Temp, ProgramData) with an executable extension (.exe, .dll, .scr, .bat, .vbs, .ps1, .cmd). This pattern is a common technique used by adversaries to establish persistence by ensuring malicious code executes automatically upon user login or system startup.
This rule detects a multi-stage attack chain involving the execution of a script (likely config.cmd) via curl, followed by the modification of the Active Setup StubPath registry key for persistence, and subsequent execution of a Python script (config.py) from a non-standard location in AppData\Local\Microsoft\.
Detects processes querying registry keys or accessing file paths associated with common virtualization and sandbox environments (e.g., VMware, VirtualBox, Hyper-V, Sandboxie). This behavior is often indicative of malware attempting to identify if it is running in an analysis or sandbox environment to evade detection.
Detects the specific behavior associated with the OnyxC2 C2 framework where a process re-spawns a child instance of itself, followed by a rapid registry modification by that child process. This pattern serves as a marker for the ONYXC2 loader configuration stage.
Detects execution of auto.exe (associated with AvisLoader) combined with a specific registry-based UAC bypass technique using the ICMLuaUtil COM elevation moniker (CLSID 3E5FC7F9-9A51-4367-9063-A120244FBEC7). This pattern is characteristic of UACME method 41 to achieve privilege escalation.

Detects modifications to the Windows legal notice registry keys (legalnoticecaption, legalnoticetext) under the System policies registry hive. These keys are used to display a message to users during the login process, and are frequently abused by adversaries for persistence messaging, defacement, or to deliver payloads via social engineering.
Detects suspicious command-line strings stored in the Windows Explorer RunMRU registry key. Adversaries may use this location to store persistence commands or to obfuscate command-line arguments that are intended to be executed by the user or via automated processes.
This rule detects potential persistence via scheduled tasks that masquerade as legitimate network components (e.g., 'System Health Monitor'), as well as abnormal use of WebDav via rundll32.exe or net.exe in the context of the Star Blizzard (COLDRIVER) campaign. It monitors for task creation/updates, schtasks command lines, registry artifacts related to task scheduling, and suspicious WebDav network utility usage, while excluding common security tool processes.
