Detects evidence of the Alinubx.sys kernel driver being loaded or interacted with via its device interface using a specific IOCTL (0x222024). This driver is known to be abused in Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks to terminate security software processes from kernel mode, effectively bypassing Windows Protected Process Light (PPL) protections.
Detects attempts by malicious software, specifically SloppyRAT, to query or modify Microsoft Defender settings by interacting with WMI classes like MSFT_MpPreference or MSFT_MpComputerStatus. This activity is indicative of efforts to disable security controls such as real-time monitoring to facilitate further malicious actions.
Detects the mass termination of multiple security-related processes on a host within a short timeframe, correlated with the presence of specific driver modules potentially associated with security software interference or evasive behavior.
Detects the deletion of Google Chrome browser extension settings from the Windows Registry. Adversaries often target the 'extensions.settings' registry value under 'PreferenceMACs' to disable security extensions, force the installation of malicious extensions, or tamper with browser-based security controls.
Detects in-memory tampering of the EtwEventWrite function within ntdll.dll, a technique commonly used by malware and loaders to disable Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) telemetry to avoid detection by security products.
This rule detects potential security software tampering by identifying the loading of a specific driver (Alinubx.sys) followed by the termination or interference of common security agent processes within a short timeframe. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to disable endpoint protection using a Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) or malicious driver approach.
Detects when a high volume of distinct security-related processes or services are terminated on a single host within a 2-minute window. This behavior is strongly indicative of an adversary attempting to disable endpoint protection software as part of a post-compromise defensive evasion effort.
Detects instances where the process 'GRrte.exe' forcefully terminates 'iediagcmd.exe' using taskkill.exe. This activity is indicative of an attempt to disable or impair specific security diagnostic tools or EDR-related components on the host.
Detects multiple defense evasion techniques typically associated with the Monkey ransomware family, including clearing Windows Event Logs, clearing PowerShell command history, tampering with AMSI and ETW, modifying Microsoft Defender exclusions, and disabling Task Manager or CMD via registry keys.
This rule detects potentially malicious system configuration changes, specifically the suspension or disabling of BitLocker drive encryption via 'manage-bde.exe' and the weakening of SChannel security protocols or ciphers by modifying registry keys. These activities are indicative of an attacker attempting to bypass disk encryption or lower the security posture of network communication.
Detects the loading of the Alinubx.sys (aka CcProtect.sys) kernel driver, often dropped as nvfsflt64.sys or registered as NvFsFilter, followed by a rapid, simultaneous termination of security product processes. This activity is indicative of a BYOVD (Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver) attack chain where kernel-mode primitives are used to terminate EDR/AV processes.
Detects unauthorized write operations targeting the memory space of amsi.dll, specifically attempting to patch exported functions such as AmsiScanBuffer or AmsiScanString. This technique is commonly employed by malicious actors to neutralize the Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) and prevent security telemetry from inspecting scripts and payloads during execution.
Detects unauthorized attempts to disable Windows Defender Tamper Protection by setting the TamperProtection registry value to 0. This action allows an adversary to weaken system security, potentially enabling them to modify Defender exclusions or stop security services without interference.
Detects the use of PowerShell to modify Windows Defender exclusions by adding the 'C:\' drive root as an exclusion path. This technique, which can be executed via 'Add-MpPreference', 'Set-MpPreference', or 'Invoke-CimMethod', effectively disables real-time scanning across the entire system drive and is often employed by adversaries to hide malicious activity from antivirus detection.
Detects the use of PowerShell to modify Microsoft Defender (MpPreference) settings by adding specific directories or files to the exclusion list. This behavior is frequently associated with adversaries attempting to evade security detection by ensuring malicious tools, staged payloads, or persistent files remain unscanned by the antivirus engine.
Detects artifacts associated with the CRUDEEXCLUDE Delphi-based loader, which is used to deploy the HEAVYGRAM backdoor. The rule identifies a combination of Delphi indicators, anti-analysis sandbox connectivity checks, decoy message boxes, and attempts to modify Windows Defender exclusions for specific paths associated with the malware's activity.
Detects the execution of PowerShell commands using 'Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath' initiated by the CRUDEEXCLUDE Delphi utility. This behavior is associated with threat actors staging directories for the deployment of HEAVYGRAM/SHADEGENES payloads.
Detects a suspicious sequence of PowerShell commands associated with HEAVYGRAM-related droppers. The rule identifies processes that attempt to bypass security protections by adding Windows Defender exclusion paths, followed by registry-based persistence mechanisms (Run keys) that target common malicious executables such as RuntimeSSH.exe or winappx.exe.
This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with or bypass Windows Defender by monitoring for files or processes named 'ShieldCrash' occurring in close temporal proximity to the creation or modification of files within Windows Defender's shadow or scan directories (BaseNamedObjects\Restricted\WD_SHADOW_ or WD_SCAN). This behavior is often associated with malware attempting to evade security detection.
Detects attempts by PowerShell processes to modify the memory space of amsi.dll, a common technique used to bypass the Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) by patching its functions in-memory.
Detects the execution of PowerShell or Rundll32 processes with command-line arguments that reference Anti-Malware Scan Interface (AMSI) components. This is a common indicator of an attempt to bypass or disable AMSI to facilitate the execution of malicious scripts or payloads.
