Detects outbound network connections initiated by `dialer.exe`, an outdated Microsoft utility. This process is known to be targeted by info-stealers for process injection and used to establish command and control (C2) connections, with Rhadamanthys being a common example. The rule filters out connections to common local and private IP ranges to reduce false positives.

Detects the execution and usage of the DSInternals PowerShell module. This module can be used to perform suspicious activities such as dumping DPAPI backup keys, manipulating NTDS.DIT files, auditing FIDO2 and NGC keys, performing password auditing, recovering domain controllers from IFM backups, and calculating password hashes. The rule specifically looks for a wide range of cmdlets associated with the DSInternals module within PowerShell script block logs.

Detects the enabling of the "EnablePeriodicBackup" registry value. Once enabled, The OS will backup System registry hives on restarts to the "C:\Windows\System32\config\RegBack" folder. Windows creates a "RegIdleBackup" task to manage subsequent backups. Registry backup was a default behavior on Windows and was disabled as of "Windows 10, version 1803". Adversaries might enable this feature to collect system registry hives, which can contain sensitive information.

Detects changes to the "DisableHypervisorEnforcedPagingTranslation" registry value where it is set to "1" to disable the Hypervisor Enforced Paging Translation feature. This action can be taken by adversaries to evade detection by security tools that rely on this feature for monitoring or integrity checks, potentially facilitating kernel exploits or rootkit installations.
