Detects the creation of a new kernel driver service using 'sc.exe'. This activity can be indicative of persistence or privilege escalation attempts by adversaries, as kernel drivers operate with high privileges. The rule specifically looks for 'sc.exe' commands that include 'create' or 'config' along with 'binPath', 'type', and 'kernel' parameters. It includes filters for known legitimate Avira driver installations to reduce false positives.

Detects the use of systemctl mask to disable system power management targets such as suspend, hibernate, or hybrid sleep.
Adversaries may mask these targets to prevent a system from entering sleep or shutdown states, ensuring their malicious processes remain active and uninterrupted.
This behavior can be associated with persistence or defense evasion, as it impairs normal system power operations to maintain long-term access or avoid termination of malicious activity.

The rule specifically looks for delete events targeting files within the common IIS log directory structure (`\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\`) with a `.log` extension.
