Detects signs of the ClosedQuorum implant by correlating at least two redundant persistence mechanisms (Registry Run keys, Scheduled Tasks, WMI execution) on the same host within a 10-minute window. The rule focuses on artifacts originating from suspicious user-writable paths or unsigned binaries, while excluding known legitimate installation paths.
Detects signs of the ClosedQuorum implant by correlating at least two redundant persistence mechanisms (Registry Run keys, Scheduled Tasks, WMI execution) on the same host within a 10-minute window. The rule focuses on artifacts originating from suspicious user-writable paths or unsigned binaries, while excluding known legitimate installation paths.
This rule monitors for coordinated persistence efforts by detecting the occurrence of at least two out of three specific persistence techniques (registry run key modification, scheduled task creation, or WMI-based script execution) on the same device within a 30-minute window. It explicitly filters out activities from signed binaries or those occurring in standard system/application directories, focusing on potentially malicious artifacts originating from user-writable locations.

Detects the creation of a scheduled task named 'keyroll' in close temporal proximity to the execution of 'rnpkeys.exe' from 'C:\ProgramData\keyroll'. This pattern mimics the persistence mechanism used by the Sauron malware (a.k.a. Strider) to execute its loader chain.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using schtasks.exe or PowerShell that reference specific task names associated with potentially suspicious activity or persistence (e.g., PlutonAgentScheduler, EnterpriseMgmtServicesScheduler). The rule specifically looks for tasks being placed or modified within 'microsoft' or 'pluton' directories or paths, which may indicate an attempt to masquerade as legitimate system services.

Detects MayaBot's scheduled-task persistence chain by correlating two signals on the same device within a 60-minute window: (1) schtasks.exe creating a daily task referencing a hidden batch script (update.bat/backup.bat/firewall-update.bat) under AppData\Local, spawned from wscript.exe/cscript.exe/cmd.exe, and (2) cmd.exe launching a hidden-window PowerShell process referencing the same batch scripts under AppData\Local. Requiring both signals together, anchored to the AppData\Local path, sharply reduces false positives compared to alerting on either behavior alone.
Detects an accelerated sequence of attack phases—specifically recon, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and persistence—occurring on a single device within a short timeframe (15 minutes). This behavioral pattern indicates potential automated or script-orchestrated intrusion activity.
Detects the execution of MicrosoftIME.exe or the creation of scheduled tasks referencing it from non-standard directories such as User, Temp, or AppData folders. This behavior is indicative of masquerading or persistence mechanisms where a malicious process mimics the legitimate Microsoft Input Method Editor (IME) binary.
This rule monitors for two potentially suspicious activities on Windows systems: the creation of scheduled tasks named 'MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTask' or 'MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTaskCore' using 'schtasks.exe', and the execution of scripts via 'wscript.exe' with silent flags ('//B' and '//Nologo'). These behaviors are often associated with persistence mechanisms or the execution of obfuscated/malicious scripts.
Detects a multi-stage installation of the Level RMM agent. This rule monitors for a correlation of events including the execution of 'LevelInstaller.exe' with specific installation arguments, file drops in potentially spoofed vendor paths (Dell or Level), the creation of a 'Level' service, and the addition of a 'Level Watchdog' scheduled task on the same device within a 24-hour window.
This rule detects the creation of a scheduled task using an XML definition located in the user's AppData\Local\Temp directory, which is a common staging location for malware. This event is correlated with subsequent high-frequency, short-lived execution of pythonw.exe using .pyw scripts, characteristic of automated implant persistence and re-launch mechanisms.
This rule detects the creation of a Windows scheduled task that triggers an hourly execution of an obfuscated PowerShell script. The script incorporates XOR-encoded data and references known external malicious URLs, suggesting a persistence mechanism used by malware to download or communicate with attacker-controlled infrastructure.
Detects a dual persistence mechanism where an adversary establishes both an identically-named Registry Run key and a Scheduled Task, both masquerading as legitimate Canon or Stardock configuration software. These artifacts are configured to launch side-loaded host binaries (COTFileReadApp.exe or DeElevate64.exe) to maintain persistence on a Windows host.
Detects the creation of a Windows scheduled task using 'schtasks.exe' or the system's scheduled task creation event where the command line or task details contain the string 'psychedelicloveUtils'. This pattern is often indicative of specific malicious persistence mechanisms or automated task-based payloads.
Detects evidence of persistence mechanisms targeting Docker environments on Linux systems. The rule identifies suspicious modifications using crontab, systemctl (service creation/start), and chattr (to make files immutable), specifically monitoring for artifacts related to '.docker-network-monitor' and 'docker-network-resolver'. It flags systems where multiple such configuration changes occur within a single day.
Detects the persistence sequence associated with 'ChainScript', which involves creating a hidden scheduled task using PowerShell or specific scripts, and a fallback mechanism that creates a registry run key entry if the task creation fails. The rule monitors for PowerShell commands, bridge script execution, and registry modifications involving the 'ComponentTask33Agent' or wscript.exe executing an '_agent.vbs' file.
This rule detects the creation of a scheduled task named 'psychedelicloveUtils' on Windows systems. This specific task name is associated with the persistence mechanism of the Psychedelic Stealer malware. The detection leverages command-line monitoring for the task creation request and identifies related file-system modifications in the Windows task registry structure.
