Detects one of the possible scenarios for disabling Symantec Endpoint Protection.
Symantec Endpoint Protection antivirus software services incorrectly implement the protected service mechanism.
As a result, the NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM user can execute the taskkill /im command several times ccSvcHst.exe /f, thereby killing the process belonging to the service, and thus shutting down the service.

Detects modifications or creations of Windows Defender's default threat action settings based on severity to 'allow' or take 'no action'.
This is a highly suspicious configuration change that effectively disables Defender's ability to automatically mitigate threats of a certain severity level,
allowing malicious software to run unimpeded. An attacker might use this technique to bypass defenses before executing payloads.
