This rule identifies when an owner is removed from an application or service principal within Azure Active Directory. This activity could indicate an attempt to remove legitimate administrative access or to obscure malicious activity by removing an owner who might detect it.

Detects when an end user's consent to an application is blocked by Azure AD due to risk-based consent policies. This indicates that Azure AD has identified a risky application or a risky consent request, preventing the user from granting permissions to it. This can be a proactive measure against consent phishing or malicious applications attempting to gain access to user data.

This rule detects the use of 'dd' and 'truncate' commands to add junk data to a file, a technique adversaries may employ for binary padding to evade detection. Specifically, it looks for 'truncate' with the '-s' (size) option or 'dd' with 'if=' (input file) but without 'of=' (output file), indicating potential in-place modification or padding.

Detects the execution of the 'groupdel' command, which is used to delete a group on Linux systems. This activity can be abused by threat actors to remove evidence of their presence or to disrupt legitimate user access by deleting groups.

This rule detects the use of the 'touch' command to modify the timestamps of service files. Adversaries may use this technique to make malicious service files appear legitimate or to evade detection by blending them with existing system files. The detection specifically looks for the 'touch' command being executed with the '-t' flag (to set a specific time) and targeting a file ending with '.service'.

This rule detects suspicious sub-processes spawned by common web server processes on Linux systems. It specifically looks for web server processes (Apache, Nginx, Lighttpd, Node, Caddy, Tomcat, WebSphere) executing common system utilities and commands such as 'whoami', 'ifconfig', 'ip', 'uname', 'cat', 'crontab', 'hostname', 'iptables', 'netstat', 'pwd', and 'route'. This behavior is indicative of a web shell being used to execute commands on the compromised server.

This rule detects attempts to bypass macOS Gatekeeper by removing the 'com.apple.quarantine' extended attribute from a file using the 'xattr' utility. This action prevents Gatekeeper from performing its security checks on the file, allowing untrusted applications to execute without user prompts.

This rule detects the execution of the 'xp_cmdshell' stored procedure within Microsoft SQL Server. 'xp_cmdshell' allows SQL Server to execute operating system commands directly, which is a common technique used by attackers for privilege escalation, lateral movement, and persistence within a compromised environment. The detection specifically looks for EventID 33205 in the application log, indicating a SQL Server event, and checks for the presence of 'object_name:xp_cmdshell' and 'statement:EXEC' in the event data, confirming the execution of this procedure.

This rule detects the execution of well-known credential dumping tools by monitoring Windows Security Event ID 4697, which signifies a service creation event. The rule specifically looks for service filenames containing keywords associated with common credential dumping utilities such as 'cachedump', 'dumpsvc', 'fgexec', 'gsecdump', 'mimidrv', 'pwdump', and 'servpw'. This indicates an adversary attempting to install and run a service that can extract credentials from the system.

This rule detects the creation of specific files that are commonly generated by the BloodHound collection tool, SharpHound. These files, such as 'BloodHound.zip', '_computers.json', '_domains.json', '_groups.json', and others, contain collected Active Directory information. The presence of these files on a system indicates that BloodHound or SharpHound has been used for reconnaissance, which is often a precursor to further malicious activity within an Active Directory environment.
