Detects suspected malicious activity associated with the Dropping Elephant threat group. The rule monitors for two behaviors: 1) IP address geolocation fingerprinting by identifying non-browser processes communicating with ipify.org and ip2c.org within a 60-second window, and 2) Direct network connections to known Dropping Elephant C2 domains, specifically gcl-power.org and chinagreenenergy.org.

Identifies string splitting techniques used in Dropping Elephant downloaders to evade static PowerShell logging. The rule specifically looks for obfuscated substrings like 'iw''r', 'g''c''i', 'r''e''n', 'c''p''i', and 'g''cm sch' within PowerShell command lines.
Identifies the creation or execution of a scheduled task named 'GoogleErrorReport', which is used by the threat group Dropping Elephant (also known as Patchwork or FIN13) to run their side-loading chain every minute. This rule detects both the command-line invocation of schtasks.exe to create or modify tasks and the Windows Security Event ID 4698 for scheduled task creation, specifically looking for the 'GoogleErrorReport' string.
Detects the unique hardcoded mutex created by the Dropping Elephant in-memory RAT to prevent duplicate infections. This rule specifically looks for the mutex string 'kshdkfhskdfjkhsdkfhsjkdfhkj' during global object or mutex creation events.
Detects the legitimate Microsoft binary Fondue.exe loading APPWIZ.cpl from a non-standard public directory (C:\Users\Public\), indicating DLL side-loading, a technique observed in campaigns like Dropping Elephant.
Detects techniques used by the Dropping Elephant APT group to stage and execute a DLL side-loading attack using VLC Media Player. This includes the execution of VLC from suspicious paths, the use of PowerShell to download and rename payloads into those paths, and the specific scheduled task used for persistence.
