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.
This rule detects activities associated with the Star Blizzard (also known as APT28 or Callisto) group's CosmicPulse malware, specifically the downloader and Python-based backdoor. It monitors for suspicious CPL file execution via UNC paths by rundll32.exe or control.exe, unauthorized modifications to the HKCU\Software\Classes\.mollis registry key used for COM hijacking, and anomalous spawning of Python executables from control host processes in user-writable directories.

Detects execution of potentially malicious or dual-use tools (such as credential dumpers or security-bypass utilities) from within ScreenConnect temporary directories via the 'RunFile' command. This is indicative of an attacker leveraging legitimate remote support software to deploy secondary payloads.
Detects execution of potentially malicious or dual-use tools (such as credential dumpers or security-bypass utilities) from within ScreenConnect temporary directories via the 'RunFile' command. This is indicative of an attacker leveraging legitimate remote support software to deploy secondary payloads.
Detects instances where attrib.exe is executed with minimal or no command-line arguments, launched by processes other than standard Windows shell processes like cmd.exe, explorer.exe, or powershell.exe. This pattern is often indicative of potential masquerading, where malicious binaries are renamed to mimic legitimate Windows system utilities to evade detection.
Detects execution of 'rnpkeys.exe' and associated DLLs ('rnp.dll' or 'tdwp.dll') located within the '\ProgramData\keyroll\' directory, which is a common persistence or staging location for malicious activity.
This rule monitors for processes masquerading as Dell-related software (e.g., 'Dell Window Guard.exe', 'Dell.Virus.Guard.exe') or processes containing the command-line argument 'AgtaBackstage'. It flags devices where multiple variations of these suspicious file names appear or where the specific 'AgtaBackstage' string is present, which is indicative of potential malicious activity or persistence mechanisms using software-related naming conventions.
Detects instances where the XMRig cryptominer is masquerading as the legitimate systemd-logind process on Linux hosts. The rule triggers on process execution of /usr/sbin/systemd-logind coupled with suspicious outbound network connections to known mining pools or mining-related ports.
Detects the execution of processes named 'nohup' with arguments suggesting renderer masquerading ('--type=renderer') containing suspicious terms like 'SystemUpdate' or 'iSync', originating from Cursor IDE helper processes or the terminal shell. This behavior is indicative of a backdoor or malicious process attempting to hide in plain sight by masquerading as legitimate IDE rendering components.
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.
KQL Query
Detects the execution of a malicious Electron-based installer masquerading as Anthropic's Claude AI (ClaudeOpus5-desktop.exe). The rule monitors for the specific filename or known malicious hashes, as well as the spawning of an embedded malicious loader process associated with the RevStealer infection chain.
Detects the presence of Node.js runtime files (node.exe, index.js) or script-based agents (vbs, ps1) located within user-profile paths (AppData) that mimic legitimate Windows system folders. This pattern is characteristic of masquerading techniques used to stage or run malicious agents under the guise of system components.
This rule detects the execution of 'clspack.exe' from within the AppData\Microsoft directory. 'clspack.exe' is a legitimate Windows utility normally residing in System32 or SysWOW64. Execution from user-writable directories like AppData is a common indicator of masquerading or binary hijacking.
This rule detects the execution of potentially malicious binaries masquerading as legitimate Windows utilities (e.g., Windows Update, Defender, or Phone Link) from within a ScreenConnect temporary directory. This behavior is indicative of a phishing attack where an adversary uses remote access tools to stage and execute malicious payloads on a victim's system.
Detects the execution of MSP360 or generic RMM-labeled binaries originating from common user download directories (Downloads or Temp folders) when the filename mimics common phishing lures such as invoice, e-card, RSVP, or document-related naming conventions. This activity indicates a potential social engineering attempt to execute remote monitoring and management tools.
KQL Query
This rule detects potentially suspicious activity involving conhost.exe, a process typically associated with console applications. It identifies conhost.exe instances running from suspicious paths (e.g., Temp, Downloads, AppData) or launched by unexpected parent processes. Additionally, it detects scenarios where conhost.exe acts as the parent process to common command-line or scripting utilities, which is an atypical behavior often indicative of an attempt to obscure malicious command execution.
Detects phishing messages that deliberately mix writing systems/scripts or use homoglyphs in the Subject line as ONE corroborating signal within a broader, multi-signal phishing pattern. This is the only translation that implements true sender-novelty checking via baseline lookups (a sending domain must be new to both the specific recipient and the organization as a whole to add risk). A weighted score (script-mixing=2, homoglyph=3, phishing vocabulary=2, sender-novelty=1, threshold=6) requires multiple corroborating signals before firing. Note: unlike the SPL/S1QL/CQL/CortexQL translations, this version does not strip brand/product tokens before the script check.
