This rule detects various suspicious activities associated with a cryptojacking campaign, including the execution of 'RuntimeHost.exe' from unusual directories, creation of suspicious scheduled tasks, DLL side-loading followed by silent MSI execution, process hollowing into .NET utilities, Windows Defender exclusion attempts, and persistence mechanisms via startup folder shortcuts and registry run keys. These activities are indicative of an attacker establishing persistence and evading defenses to perform unauthorized cryptocurrency mining.

This rule detects various indicators associated with the 'Fake Clawdbot VS Code Extension' malware, which is known to install the ScreenConnect Remote Access Trojan (RAT). Detection logic includes suspicious domain names, specific file names downloaded from those domains or Dropbox, known malicious IP addresses, specific SHA256 hashes of malicious files, outbound network connections on port 8041 (excluding common private/reserved IP ranges), ScreenConnect service installations/starts, and suspicious file writes or process executions from temporary directories related to ScreenConnect or 'Code.exe'.

Detects PowerShell commands using Invoke-WebRequest to download and then execute an MSI file, a technique observed in campaigns deploying RMM tools like ScreenConnect and Tactical RMM. This is often done within a single command line or script block.

This file looks for the part of the TrustConnect campaign where a fake work-related app reaches out to download a remote access package. The language in the rule is kept close to the behavior from the report so it does not turn into a generic rule for every support tool. It focuses on a command that pulls a package with the ScreenConnect name while avoiding the official vendor address. That matters because many companies use remote support software for real work, and a broad rule would create too much noise. The point here is to catch the suspicious pattern where a disguised lure app is used to bring in hidden remote access, not to flag normal help desk activity. In plain language, this file tries to spot a download step that fits the fake workplace-software scam described by Microsoft, where something that looks safe or familiar is used to quietly place a control tool on the victim machine.

Detects the execution of legitimate Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tools, such as AnyDesk, ScreenConnect, OptiTuneAgent, and SplashtopStreamer, when initiated from non-standard directories (outside 'C:\Program Files') or by command-line shells (powershell.exe, cmd.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe). This behavior is often abused by threat actors, including groups like Chaos RaaS, for persistence and remote access.

This rule detects outbound network connections to known command and control (C2) infrastructure. Specifically, it looks for connections to suspicious URLs (meeting.bulletmailer.net, clawdbot.getintwopc.site, darkgptprivate.com, getintwopc.site) or specific IP addresses (179.43.176.32, 178.16.54.253), or connections on a specific port (8041) which has been associated with ScreenConnect C2. The rule also attempts to identify the specific threat indicator based on the matched URL, IP, or port.

This rule correlates multiple indicators of compromise (IOCs) across file, network, and process events to detect potential advanced persistent threats (APTs) or sophisticated malware. It looks for specific file paths associated with tools like Lightshot, ScreenConnect, or suspicious VS Code extensions, combined with network connections to known malicious domains/IPs or unusual ports, and the execution of suspicious processes like 'Code.exe' outside of its legitimate VS Code path or 'ScreenConnect' related executables. A high threat score is assigned if multiple types of these indicators are observed on the same device and account within a 30-day window.

Detects process, network, and file events associated with the fake 'ClawdBot Agent' VS Code extension. This malware drops weaponized ScreenConnect (Code.exe) and a Rust-based DWrite.dll loader. The rule covers Lightshot staging paths, relay C2 (bulletmailer.net:8041), extension C2 domains (getintwopc.site, clawdbot.getintwopc, darkgptprivate.com), and known payload hashes.

This rule detects various activities associated with the ClawdBot campaign, which uses a fake VS Code extension to drop the ScreenConnect RAT. Detection logic includes suspicious network activity fetching malicious payloads (config.json, lightshot files, zoomupdate.msi) from known malicious domains or Dropbox, identification of known malicious file hashes, outbound connections to ScreenConnect C2 servers on port 8041, creation or start of ScreenConnect services, file dropping/staging in temporary directories, and execution of Code.exe or ScreenConnect binaries from temporary paths.

Detects indicators of compromise related to trojanized ScreenConnect installers and abuse of ScreenConnect C2 configuration. This rule identifies suspicious process executions of ScreenConnect components, known malicious hashes associated with ScreenConnect malware, ScreenConnect processes launched by installer executables (msiexec), network connections to ScreenConnect relay domains, DNS resolutions for ScreenConnect relays, modifications to 'system.config' files within ScreenConnect directories indicative of C2 configuration, and malicious registry artifacts related to ScreenConnect installation.

This rule detects the installation or execution of ScreenConnect client software. It looks for specific keywords in the process command line, folder paths, or file names associated with ScreenConnect. The rule also attempts to categorize the risk level based on the installation path, flagging installations in temporary directories or downloads as 'High Risk'.

This rule detects activity associated with the 'ClawdBot' campaign, which involves dropping the ScreenConnect Remote Access Trojan (RAT) via a fake VS Code extension. It identifies suspicious network connections to known malicious domains or Dropbox (when initiated by Code.exe), known malicious file hashes, outbound connections to ScreenConnect C2 ports, creation or start of ScreenConnect services, file drops in temporary directories related to ScreenConnect or Lightshot, and execution of Code.exe or ScreenConnect binaries from temporary folders. It also looks for initial payload downloads from attacker command and control infrastructure.

This rule correlates the deployment of ScreenConnect components (identified by specific process names and image paths) with subsequent network communication to a known ScreenConnect C2 server (meeting.bulletmailer.net on port 8041). It aims to detect suspicious ScreenConnect activity, potentially indicating unauthorized remote access or control.
