This analytic detects the execution of AdvancedRun.exe, a utility that allows users to run programs with different administrative privileges, user accounts, or environment settings. It identifies the process by its name or original file name and flags common command-line arguments often used for configuration or specific execution parameters. Monitoring this activity is crucial as AdvancedRun can be leveraged by attackers for remote code execution, privilege escalation, or maintaining persistence within an environment, similar to tools like PsExec. If used maliciously, it could enable the execution of arbitrary commands or configuration-based automation.
This analytic identifies suspicious DNS TXT records using a pre-trained deep learning model. It leverages DNS response data from the Network Resolution data model, categorizing TXT records into known types via regular expressions. Records that do not match known patterns are flagged as suspicious. This activity is significant as DNS TXT records can be used for data exfiltration or command-and-control communication. If confirmed malicious, attackers could use these records to covertly transfer data or receive instructions, posing a severe threat to network security.
The analytic detects multiple CrowdStrike LOW severity alerts originating from the same endpoint, indicating a series of minor suspicious activities or policy violations. Specifically, it triggers when an endpoint generates three or more distinct types of LOW severity alerts. These alerts are not immediately critical but should be reviewed to prevent potential threats. They often highlight unusual behavior or low-level risks that, if left unchecked, could escalate into more significant security issues. Regular monitoring and analysis of these alerts are essential for maintaining robust security, as a cluster of different low-severity events can be an early indicator of a more significant compromise or an adversary's reconnaissance activities.
The analytic detects the use of NetExec (formerly CrackMapExec), a toolset for post-exploitation enumeration and attack within Active Directory environments, by identifying specific command-line arguments. It leverages Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) data to detect actions like ticket manipulation, Kerberoasting, and password spraying. This activity is significant as NetExec is used by adversaries to exploit Kerberos for privilege escalation and lateral movement, potentially leading to unauthorized access, persistence, and compromise of sensitive information.

The analytic identifies potential exploitation of Log4Shell CVE-2021-44228 by correlating multiple MITRE ATT&CK tactics detected in risk events. It leverages Splunk's risk data model to calculate the distinct count of MITRE ATT&CK tactics from Log4Shell-related detections. This activity is significant because it indicates a high probability of exploitation if two or more distinct tactics are observed. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to initial payload delivery, callback to a malicious server, and post-exploitation activities, potentially resulting in unauthorized access, lateral movement, and further compromise of the affected systems.
The following analytic detects the use of Regsvr32.exe to register DLLs from suspicious paths such as AppData, ProgramData, or Windows Temp directories. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process execution logs and command-line arguments. This activity is significant because Regsvr32.exe can be abused to proxy execution of malicious code, bypassing traditional security controls. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code, potentially leading to system compromise, data exfiltration, or further lateral movement within the network.
The following analytic detects instances where Azure AD has blocked a user's attempt to grant consent to a risky or potentially malicious application. This detection leverages Azure AD audit logs, focusing on user consent actions and system-driven blocks. Monitoring these blocked consent attempts is crucial as it highlights potential threats early on, indicating that a user might be targeted or that malicious applications are attempting to infiltrate the organization. If confirmed malicious, this activity suggests that Azure's security measures successfully prevented a harmful application from accessing organizational data, warranting immediate investigation to understand the context and take preventive measures.
The analytic detects instances of `regsvcs.exe` running without command line arguments. This behavior typically indicates process injection, where another process manipulates `regsvcs.exe`. The detection leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names, IDs, and command-line executions. This activity is significant as it may signal an attempt to evade detection and execute malicious code. If confirmed malicious, the attacker could achieve code execution, potentially leading to privilege escalation, persistence, or access to sensitive information.
The following analytic detects the execution of "dsquery.exe" with arguments targeting `TrustedDomain` queries directly from the command line. This behavior is identified using Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) telemetry, focusing on process names and command-line arguments. This activity is significant as it often indicates domain trust discovery, a common step in lateral movement or privilege escalation by adversaries. If confirmed malicious, this could allow attackers to map domain trusts, potentially leading to further exploitation and unauthorized access to trusted domains.
This analytic identifies when a malicious file is detected within the Microsoft Office 365 ecosystem by the Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) engine. Attackers often stage and execute malicious files from within cloud environments like Office 365. Monitoring detections from built-in Office 365 capabilities, such as those enhanced by Safe Attachments and Safe Links, is crucial for identifying and responding to threats.
The following analytic detects the presence of punycode within x509 certificates using Zeek x509 logs. It identifies punycode in the subject alternative name email and other fields by searching for the "xn--" prefix. This activity is significant as punycode can be used in phishing attacks or to bypass domain filters, posing a security risk. If confirmed malicious, attackers could use these certificates to impersonate legitimate domains, potentially leading to unauthorized access or data breaches.
The following analytic identifies multiple failed multi-factor authentication (MFA) requests for a single user within an Azure AD tenant. It leverages Azure AD Sign-in Logs, specifically error code 500121, to detect more than 10 failed MFA attempts within 10 minutes. This behavior is significant as it may indicate an adversary attempting to bypass MFA by bombarding the user with repeated authentication prompts. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, allowing attackers to compromise user accounts and potentially escalate their privileges within the environment.
The following analytic identifies alerts triggered by the Office 365 Security and Compliance Center, indicating potential threats or policy violations. It leverages data from the `o365_management_activity` dataset, focusing on events where the workload is SecurityComplianceCenter and the operation is AlertTriggered. This activity is significant as it highlights security and compliance issues within the O365 environment, which are crucial for maintaining organizational security. If confirmed malicious, these alerts could indicate attempts to breach security policies, leading to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or other malicious activities.
The following analytic detects CrowdStrike alerts for Medium Identity Risk Severity with a risk score of 55% or higher. These alerts indicate significant vulnerabilities in user identities, such as suspicious behavior or compromised credentials. Promptly investigating and addressing these alerts is crucial to prevent potential security breaches and ensure the integrity and protection of sensitive information and systems.
The following analytic detects the use of the 'dd' command to overwrite files on a Linux system. It leverages data from Linux Auditd telemetry, focusing on process execution logs that include command-line details.
