The following analytic detects the use of the Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) client application in allowed outbound connections. It leverages logs from Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense devices and identifies instances where BITS is used to initiate downloads from non-standard or unexpected domains. While BITS is a legitimate Windows service used for downloading updates, it is also commonly abused by adversaries to stealthily retrieve payloads or tools. This analytic filters out known Microsoft Edge update URLs and focuses on connections that may indicate suspicious or unauthorized file transfers. If confirmed malicious, this could represent a command and control (C2) channel or a download of malware or tooling as part of an attack chain.

Detects suspicious command-line strings within the 'TypedPaths' registry key, specifically targeting entries associated with web browsers. This behavior is indicative of the "FileFix" technique, where users are tricked into pasting malicious commands into browser file upload dialogs. The rule looks for common command-line utilities like 'cmd', 'curl', 'powershell', 'bitsadmin', 'certutil', 'mshta', and 'regsvr32' within the 'url1' value of the 'TypedPaths' key, combined with the presence of a '#' character, which often signifies a comment or a separator in such malicious constructs.

The analytic identifies instances where the Windows Explorer process (explorer.exe) is executed with a URL in its command line. This behavior is uncommon and suspicious, as adversaries may abuse explorer.exe to open URLs with the default browser to download and execute malicious payloads. This detection leverages process execution logs from EDR agents.
