This rule detects suspicious activity where a common archive utility (7z, WinRAR, unrar, winzip) extracts files, and within a 5-minute window, a VBScript interpreter (wscript.exe or cscript.exe) executes a script. This pattern is often associated with phishing attacks that deliver malicious VBScripts via archived files.

This rule detects instances where the WhatsApp Desktop application (WhatsApp.exe) spawns suspicious child processes commonly used for scripting or command execution, such as wscript.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe, cmd.exe, or rundll32.exe. It specifically excludes known legitimate update and service-related command lines to reduce false positives. This behavior could indicate a phishing attempt or malware execution originating from a compromised WhatsApp session.

This rule detects a scenario where a user downloads a fake installer (e.g., setup, install, vpn executable) from a browser, and shortly after, the downloaded executable initiates a PowerShell process. This PowerShell process then attempts to fetch secondary payloads from known malicious hosting services like Discord or Pastebin using `Invoke-WebRequest` or `IEX`.

Detects execution of the TinyRCT backdoor by monitoring for suspicious instances of 'PerfWatson2.exe' running from non-standard locations (outside of the expected Visual Studio program directories) and specific instances of 'chrome_setup.exe' originating from user download directories matching a known malicious SHA256 hash.

Detects the execution of Windows script files (JS, VBS, HTA) using wscript.exe or cscript.exe from common staging areas like AppData, Temp, or ProgramData, specifically when the initiating process is not a signed Microsoft binary. This pattern is highly indicative of potential malicious script execution often used in phishing delivery or secondary payload stages.

Detects renamed AutoHotKey binaries launched from user-writable paths by a browser or Teams parent process, spawning cmd or powershell as children. This activity is associated with UNC6692 ("Snow Flurries") impersonating IT helpdesk over Teams, luring victims to a fake "Mailbox Repair Utility" page, and delivering a renamed AHK binary + same-named script from an attacker S3 bucket to install the SNOWBELT extension.
