This rule detects the staging of 'NotepadPlusPlus.dll' within the '%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows' directory, potentially indicating a Clickfix attack. The presence of 'Start-Process' in conjunction with these strings further strengthens the detection.

This rule detects instances where common command and scripting interpreters (powershell.exe, cmd.exe, cscript.exe) are launched by unusual parent processes. The rule specifically looks for these interpreters being spawned by processes other than explorer.exe, notepad.exe, mspaint.exe, or svchost.exe, and triggers if this occurs at least twice within an hour on the same computer by the same user.

Hunts for the fake VPN creating highly randomized, high-entropy directories in %AppData% to store its persistence binaries. This rule specifically looks for folder creation events in the AppData\Roaming directory with a highly randomized, 12 or more character alphanumeric name, and correlates it with a process event from either GlobalProtect or AnyConnect VPN clients.

Detects a malicious executable imitating the .NET Runtime Optimization Service when found in the ProgramData folder. This is a common technique used by adversaries to masquerade malicious processes as legitimate system components.

Detects the creation of generic executable files (e.g., me.exe, update.exe, monitor.exe, service.exe) within the Hola browser installation path. This rule aims to identify potentially malicious executables delivered by a compromised updater or supply chain attack targeting Hola browser users. The rule also captures the principal process responsible for the file creation for correlation.

This rule detects when two or more files with suspicious names (e.g., 'update.exe', 'temp.exe', 'setup.exe') are created within a short timeframe (1 hour) in common user-writable directories such as 'Temp', 'AppData', 'Downloads', or 'Public'. This pattern can indicate the dropping of malicious payloads or staging of files by an adversary.

This rule detects various stages of a cryptojacking campaign, as described by Microsoft, involving initial access via autorun.dll sideloading, silent MSI installations, execution of RuntimeHost.exe from suspicious locations, scheduled task creation for persistence, .NET process hollowing, Windows Defender exclusions, and persistence via Startup folder shortcuts and Registry Run keys. The campaign leverages ScreenConnect for remote access and .NET utilities for process hollowing, ultimately leading to GPU mining cryptojacking.

This rule detects suspicious process creations where common system processes (svchost.exe, explorer.exe, lsass.exe, winlogon.exe) act as parent processes for scripting or command-line interpreters (powershell.exe, cmd.exe, cscript.exe, wscript.exe) and the child process runs with a low or untrusted integrity level. This pattern can indicate process injection or other forms of malicious execution where an attacker attempts to hide their activity by masquerading as legitimate system processes.

This rule detects the creation, modification, or renaming of files associated with PCPJack/TeamPCP malware on Linux systems. It specifically looks for these activities in common temporary directories (`/tmp/`, `/dev/shm/`, `/var/tmp/`) and for files with names matching known PCPJack/TeamPCP artifacts (e.g., `pcpcat`, `teampcp`, `xmrig`, `proxy.sh`, `kube.py`, `.pcpx`, `.pcp`) or hidden files (starting with a dot). This activity often indicates the initial staging or persistence mechanisms of the malware.

Detects execution of OneDriveUpdater.exe from C:\ProgramData, which may represent a masqueraded binary attempting to impersonate legitimate Microsoft software. This could indicate an attempt at defense evasion or persistence by an attacker.

This rule detects the staging (creation, modification, or renaming) and subsequent execution of executable files (.exe) within the 'C:\Users\Public\Music\' directory. This folder is an unusual location for executables and is often leveraged by adversaries for staging malicious payloads to evade detection. The rule specifically references 'Grixba' and 'Play Ransomware' in its context, suggesting it targets behaviors associated with these threats.

Detects the staging and installation of the G DATA Avk.exe sideloading set within the unexpected C:\Users\Public\GData\ directory, associated with a Mustang Panda PlugX campaign. This rule specifically looks for the creation of files named "Avk.exe", "Avk.dll", or "AVKTray.dat" in this suspicious public user directory.
