Detects service-creation commands (sc create / New-Service / reg add under a Services key) whose COMMAND LINE itself references a known NeedyMantis binary name or sideload staging folder. Requiring the malicious reference to appear in the command being executed -- rather than merely in the calling process's own folder location -- removes false matches from unrelated legitimate software that happens to be installed under a similarly-named folder.

Detects modifications to Windows Registry persistence locations (Run, RunOnce, Winlogon Shell/Userinit) where the assigned executable path is located within high-risk directories such as Temp, AppData, or Users Public folders. This is a common technique used by malware for persistence.

Detects unauthorized modifications to Windows Registry Run/RunOnce keys or the Startup folder. The rule specifically targets persistence attempts where the associated process resides in suspicious directories (Temp, AppData) or uses command-line arguments indicative of script execution (powershell, wscript, mshta, encoded commands, or script extensions). It excludes known legitimate installer behavior involving msiexec or setup processes.

This rule detects persistence mechanisms by monitoring additions to Windows Registry Run keys or files created in the user's Startup directory. It specifically flags entries that target suspicious locations (e.g., Temp, AppData, Public) or attempt to execute encoded commands using PowerShell or CMD.

This rule detects modifications to Windows Registry 'Run' or 'RunOnce' keys that point to executables or scripts located within suspicious user-writable directories such as AppData, Temp, or Users Public. This is a common technique used by adversaries to establish persistence on a compromised host.

Detects the creation or modification of Windows Registry Run or RunOnce keys where the associated file path points to suspicious directories (e.g., Temp, AppData, ProgramData, Users\Public) or utilizes living-off-the-land binaries (rundll32.exe, regsvr32.exe) residing outside of the protected System32 directory.

Detects the modification of Windows Run or RunOnce registry keys to execute applications from suspicious paths (e.g., Temp, AppData) or trigger PowerShell commands that contain suspicious arguments or patterns, indicating potential persistence mechanisms.

001
This rule detects persistence mechanisms involving the modification of Windows Registry 'Run' keys or the addition of executable/script files to the Windows Startup folder. It flags suspicious file types (vbs, js, hta, ps1, lnk) or the usage of common living-off-the-land binaries (wscript, cscript, powershell, mshta) when interacting with these persistence locations, while filtering out known benign processes like trustedinstaller.exe and explorer.exe.

Detects potential persistence mechanism of the Antino implant, involving the creation of a file under the directory '%LOCALAPPDATA%\Windows GatherOSStateKit\' followed by a corresponding entry in the HKCU Run registry key to maintain persistence upon user logon.

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 persistence attempts using common Windows auto-start registry keys or scheduled tasks where the initiating process is unsigned or has an invalid signature. The rule focuses on binaries executing from suspicious, user-writable directories (e.g., Temp, AppData, Downloads) and specifically targets persistence mechanisms involving the 'SecurityHealthService.exe' filename.

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 unauthorized modification or creation of registry keys under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\ to maintain persistence for remote access/RMM tools during Safe Mode with Networking. This technique is used by Akira ransomware affiliates to evade EDR and security software.

Detects modifications to Windows Registry auto-start keys (Run, RunOnce, Winlogon, or Services) by suspicious processes (e.g., script interpreters, shell, or office applications) or processes running from temporary directories, where the registry value points to paths commonly used by adversaries (AppData, Temp, or ProgramData).

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.
