Adversaries may establish persistence and/or elevate privileges by executing malicious content triggered by application shims.
The Microsoft Windows Application Compatibility Infrastructure/Framework (Application Shim) was created to allow for backward compatibility of software as the operating system codebase changes over time

This rule detects various activities associated with the InterLock Ransomware (UNC5774). It identifies anti-VM checks performed via PowerShell, specifically looking for commands that query for QEMU, memory less than 4GB or 1.5GB, or specific desktop naming conventions. It also detects local group and Service Principal Name (SPN) enumeration using PowerShell cmdlets like 'Get-LocalGroupMember', 'Get-LocalGroup', or ADSI queries for 'samAccountName' and 'servicePrincipalName'. Persistence mechanisms are covered by monitoring registry Run/RunOnce keys for entries that launch 'node' or 'php' executables. Furthermore, the rule looks for suspicious staging of 'node.exe' or 'php.exe' within the AppData\Roaming directory when initiated by PowerShell processes. The rule leverages 'DeviceProcessEvents', 'DeviceRegistryEvents', and 'DeviceEvents' (specifically PowerShellCommand action type) to capture these activities.
Detects known malicious service installs that appear in cases in which a Cobalt Strike beacon elevates privileges or lateral movement.
Detects changes to the Netsh registry key to add a new DLL value that is located on a suspicious location. This change might be an indication of a potential persistence attempt by adding a malicious Netsh helper

Detects the modification of Outlook security setting to allow unprompted execution of macros.
Detects the setting of the REGISTERAPPRESTART compatibility layer on an application.
This compatibility layer allows an application to register for restart using the "RegisterApplicationRestart" API.
This can be potentially abused as a persistence mechanism.

Detects changes to the "Default" property for keys located in the \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\ registry. Which might be used as a method of persistence
The entries found under App Paths are used primarily for the following purposes.
First, to map an application's executable file name to that file's fully qualified path.
Second, to prepend information to the PATH environment variable on a per-application, per-process basis.

Detects potential persistence using Appx DebugPath
Detects changes to the PSFactory COM InProcServer32 registry. This technique was used by RomCom to create persistence storing a malicious DLL.
Detects installation of new shim databases that try to patch sections of known processes for potential process injection or persistence.
Detects the installation of a new shim database where the file is located in a non-default location
Detects a possible persistence mechanism using RUN key for Windows Explorer and pointing to a suspicious folder
Detects potential persistence behavior using the windows telemetry registry key.
Windows telemetry makes use of the binary CompatTelRunner.exe to run a variety of commands and perform the actual telemetry collections.
This binary was created to be easily extensible, and to that end, it relies on the registry to instruct on which commands to run.
The problem is, it will run any arbitrary command without restriction of location or type.

Detects potential persistence established through the modification of registry keys related to Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) add-ins for Microsoft Office applications like Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Adversaries can leverage VSTO add-ins to execute malicious code when an Office application starts, thereby maintaining persistence on a compromised system. The rule specifically looks for changes to the 'Addins' registry paths for various Office applications and the VSTO Security Inclusion path, while filtering out common legitimate processes that might make such changes.
Detects modification of autostart extensibility point (ASEP) in registry.

Detects modification of autostart extensibility point (ASEP) in registry.
Detects attempts to tamper with autologger trace sessions by modifying specific registry values. This technique is often used by attackers to disable or impair logging, particularly for Windows Event Log and Windows Defender related logs, to evade detection.
Detects modifications to the "PendingFileRenameOperations" registry key when initiated by suspicious or uncommon executable locations or by specific system utilities like `reg.exe` or `regedit.exe`. This registry key is used by Windows to stage files for renaming or deletion after a system reboot, and its manipulation can be a defense evasion technique to replace legitimate files with malicious ones or to remove forensic artifacts.
Detects changes to the Internet Explorer "DisableFirstRunCustomize" value, which prevents Internet Explorer from running the first run wizard the first time a user starts the browser after installing Internet Explorer or Windows. This registry modification can be used by adversaries for defense evasion, potentially to suppress pop-ups that might alert a user to unusual browser behavior or to streamline the execution of malicious activities without user interaction.
