This rule identifies when a USB removable media device is attached to a Windows host by monitoring modifications to the HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USBSTOR\ registry key. Adversaries and insider threats may use removable media devices for various malicious activities, including initial access, execution, and data exfiltration.
This analytic is used to identify when a USB removable media device is attached to a Windows host. It queries the Endpoint Registry data model to look for modifications to the Windows Portable Device keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Portable Devices\Devices\ or HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\SWD\WPDBUSENUM\. Adversaries and Insider Threats may use removable media devices for several malicious activities, including initial access, execution, and exfiltration.
The analytic detects a process loading the `credui.dll` or `wincredui.dll` module. This detection leverages Sysmon EventCode 7 to identify instances where these DLLs are loaded by processes outside typical system directories. This activity is significant because adversaries often abuse these modules to create fake credential prompts or dump credentials, posing a risk of credential theft. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow attackers to harvest user credentials, leading to unauthorized access and potential lateral movement within the network.
The following analytic identifies the execution of RAR utilities to archive files on a system. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names, GUIDs, and command-line arguments. This activity is significant as threat actors, including red-teamers and malware like DarkGate, use RAR archiving to compress and exfiltrate collected data from compromised hosts. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to the unauthorized transfer of sensitive information to command and control servers, posing a severe risk to data confidentiality and integrity.
KQL Query from file: New Redis RCE Alert: CVE-2025-49844
This rule detects the execution of WinRAR (rar.exe or winrar.exe) from a directory that is not its standard installation path (e.g., 'Program Files\WinRAR'). It specifically excludes 'UnRAR.exe' executions and also filters out executions from the Windows temporary directory ('Windows\Temp') to reduce false positives. This behavior can be indicative of an adversary using a portable or custom-dropped version of WinRAR for archiving data prior to exfiltration, or for other malicious purposes.
The following analytic detects processes on macOS systems that are tapping keyboard events, potentially monitoring all keystrokes made by a user. It leverages data from osquery results within the Alerts data model, focusing on specific process names and command lines. This activity is significant as it is a common technique used by Remote Access Trojans (RATs) to log keystrokes, posing a serious security risk. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information, including passwords and personal data, compromising the integrity and confidentiality of the system.
The following analytic detects the use of PowerShell scripts to archive files into a temporary folder. It leverages PowerShell Script Block Logging, specifically monitoring for the `Compress-Archive` command targeting the `Temp` directory. This activity is significant as it may indicate an adversary's attempt to collect and compress data for exfiltration. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to unauthorized data access and exfiltration, posing a severe risk to sensitive information and overall network security.
The following analytic detects the use of certutil.exe to add a certificate to the Root certificate store using the "-addstore" flag. In this case, the certificate is loaded from a temporary file path (e.g., %TEMP%) or other uncommon locations (e.g. C:\Users\Public\), which is highly suspicious and uncommon in legitimate administrative activity. This behavior may indicate an adversary is installing a malicious root certificate to intercept HTTPS traffic, impersonate trusted entities, or bypass security controls. The use of flags such as -f (force) and -Enterprise, combined with loading .tmp files from user-writable locations, is consistent with post-exploitation activity seen in credential theft and adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) attacks. This should be investigated immediately, especially if correlated with unauthorized privilege use or prior certificate modifications. You should monitor when new certificates are added to the root store because this store is what your system uses to decide which websites, apps, and software can be trusted. If an attacker manages to add their own certificate there, they can silently intercept encrypted traffic, impersonate trusted websites, or make malicious programs look safe. This means they could steal sensitive data, bypass security tools, and keep access to your system even after other malware is removed.
The following analytic detects the execution of a PowerShell script designed to capture screen images on a host. It leverages PowerShell Script Block Logging to identify specific script block text patterns associated with screen capture activities. This behavior is significant as it may indicate an attempt to exfiltrate sensitive information by capturing desktop screenshots. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow an attacker to gather visual data from the compromised system, potentially leading to data breaches or further exploitation.
The analytic detects the creation of image files (PNG, JPG, BMP, GIF, TIFF) in the AppData\Roaming folder by processes that also have a file reference in the same folder. This behavior is commonly associated with malware, such as the Remcos RAT, which captures screenshots and stores them in the AppData folder before exfiltrating them to a command-and-control server. If confirmed malicious, this activity could indicate unauthorized data capture and exfiltration, compromising sensitive information and user privacy.
This analytic detects the creation of specific archived files, 'passff.tar' and 'cookie.tar', which are known indicators of IcedID malware exfiltrating sensitive browser information like history and cookies. The detection leverages Sysmon EventCode 11 to identify these file creations. This activity is critical as it signifies the potential compromise of sensitive user data, which could lead to further exploitation, data breaches, or escalation of attacker presence within the network.
The following analytic detects the creation of archived files in a temporary folder, which may contain collected data. This behavior is often associated with malicious activity, where attackers compress sensitive information before exfiltration. The detection focuses on monitoring specific directories, such as temp folders, for the presence of newly created archive files (e.g., .zip, .rar, .tar). By identifying this pattern, security teams can quickly respond to potential data collection and exfiltration attempts, minimizing the risk of data breaches and improving overall threat detection.
This YARA rule detects the Veaty backdoor by identifying specific bytecode patterns related to fetching commands, reading mailbox folders, and adding inbox rules. The rule looks for a combination of these patterns within a file that also has a valid MS-DOS executable header (MZ header).
Detects HTTP responses containing JavaScript associated with ClickFix phishing kits. These kits manipulate the DOM to mimic browser verification pages and trick users into copying and executing malicious commands.
Detects the configuration of a new ISATAP router on a Windows host. While ISATAP is a legitimate Microsoft technology for IPv6 transition, unexpected or unauthorized ISATAP router configurations could indicate a potential IPv6 DNS Takeover attack using tools like mitm6.
In such attacks, adversaries advertise themselves as DHCPv6 servers and set malicious ISATAP routers to intercept traffic.
This detection should be correlated with network baselines and known legitimate ISATAP deployments in your environment.

Detects command line parameters used by ADCSPwn, a tool to escalate privileges in an active directory network by coercing authenticate from machine accounts and relaying to the certificate service
Detects the execution of different compiled Windows binaries of the impacket toolset (based on names or part of their names - could lead to false positives)
This rule detects when processes other than Firefox or Windows Explorer attempt to access the Firefox profile directory. This directory contains sensitive user data like login credentials, browsing history, and cookies. Such activity, monitored via Windows Security Event 4663, could indicate malware (e.g., RATs, trojans) trying to harvest user information, potentially leading to data exfiltration, unauthorized account access, and system compromise.
The following analytic detects non-Chrome processes accessing the Chrome "Local State" file, which contains critical settings and information. It leverages Windows Security Event logs, specifically event code 4663, to identify this behavior. This activity is significant because threat actors can exploit this file to extract the encrypted master key used for decrypting saved passwords in Chrome. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information, posing a severe security risk. Monitoring this anomaly helps identify potential threats and safeguard browser-stored data.
