Detects command-line activity on a NetScaler appliance indicative of defense evasion by truncating, deleting, or disabling audit logs (ns.log) and syslog forwarding services. This activity often follows the exploitation of public-facing application vulnerabilities where an attacker seeks to hide their presence.

Detects the use of common Linux command-line utilities (sed, grep, awk, bash, sh) to perform operations on sensitive system logs or shell history files. The rule targets command strings indicative of log modification, filtering, or removal of audit trails, often associated with an attacker attempting to conceal malicious activity.

Detects the use of the `syslog` syscall with action code 5 (SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR),
(4 is SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_CLEAR and 6 is SYSLOG_ACTION_CONSOLE_OFF) which clears the kernel
ring buffer (dmesg logs). This can be used by attackers to hide traces after exploitation
or privilege escalation. A common technique is running `dmesg -c`, which triggers this syscall internally.
