This rule monitors for suspicious persistence mechanisms associated with 'Agta Backup' software, specifically looking for the creation of new Windows services, the addition of scheduled tasks, and the manipulation of processes related to 'Credential Guard.exe' within Agta Backup directories. It also tracks the presence of specific file artifacts within the application's install directories, which could indicate unauthorized installation or persistence attempts.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task intended to masquerade as 'MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTask' using either schtasks.exe or PowerShell. The rule specifically monitors for tasks being registered in AppData/Roaming directories, which is a common indicator of persistence by malicious actors attempting to mimic legitimate Microsoft Edge update processes.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task intended to masquerade as 'MicrosoftEdgeUpdateTask' using either schtasks.exe or PowerShell. The rule specifically monitors for tasks being registered in AppData/Roaming directories, which is a common indicator of persistence by malicious actors attempting to mimic legitimate Microsoft Edge update processes.
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.
The rule detects correlation between the creation of persistence-related Registry keys (specifically Windows Run keys or Browser Native Messaging hosts) and the execution of the schtasks.exe utility to create or manage a task related to 'psychedelicloveUtils'. This pattern suggests an adversary attempting to maintain persistence by linking Registry-based autostart mechanisms with a scheduled task.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using schtasks.exe or PowerShell where the task binary path resides in suspicious directories frequently used by adversaries for staging, such as AppData, Temp, Downloads, or Public folders.
Detects the creation of multiple suspicious scheduled tasks using schtasks.exe initiated by scripting engines (wscript.exe, cscript.exe). The rule filters for specific task names associated with known malicious patterns and XML definition files located in a specific directory path, identifying potential automated persistence or malware installation behavior.
Detects creation of the 'keyroll' scheduled task used to relaunch the Sauron Loader DLL side-loading chain. Requires the schtasks.exe command line to both reference the 'keyroll' task name AND explicitly reference the ProgramData\keyroll path or rnpkeys.exe (ruling out unrelated tasks that happen to be named 'keyroll', e.g. legitimate key-rotation automation), and requires an INNER join corroborating an actual rnpkeys.exe relaunch from that path within 24h — a lone task-creation event with no follow-on relaunch no longer alerts.
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.
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 a scheduled task named 'keyroll' using either schtasks.exe command line arguments or Windows Event ID 4698. This specific task name is associated with the persistence mechanism of the Sauron Loader, particularly when it references 'rnpkeys.exe' or 'ProgramData\keyroll'.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task named 'keyroll' using either schtasks.exe command line arguments or Windows Event ID 4698. This specific task name is associated with the persistence mechanism of the Sauron Loader, particularly when it references 'rnpkeys.exe' or 'ProgramData\keyroll'.
Detects the creation of scheduled tasks using 'schtasks.exe' where the command line arguments contain the string 'keyroll'. This pattern is often associated with automated credential management or persistence mechanisms that may be abused by adversaries.
This rule detects potential persistence mechanisms associated with the GlobalProtect VPN application where the binary is unsigned. It specifically monitors for unauthorized 'RunOnce' registry entries, the creation of suspicious scheduled tasks, or updates to scheduled tasks involving 'GlobalProtect.exe'. These actions are initiated by either 'msiexec.exe' or 'GlobalProtect.exe', suggesting a possible attempt to masquerade malicious activity as a legitimate VPN update or installation process.

Detects a behavioral chain where a process establishes persistence using a 'WindowsUpdate' Registry Run key or a scheduled task, followed within five minutes by an outbound network connection from the same process. The rule specifically excludes cases where a ZIP file was written to disk, identifying potential in-memory staging for exfiltration.
Detects a dual persistence mechanism where an adversary establishes persistence both via a registry Run key and a scheduled task, both named 'WindowsUpdate'. The rule correlates these events occurring on the same device within a 15-minute window.
