Detects instances where the ESET Remote Administrator Agent (ERAAgent.exe) modifies registry keys related to Windows network security settings, such as LSA policies, NullSession pipes/shares, or server/workstation auto-sharing. These settings can be manipulated to weaken Windows security posture, potentially facilitating lateral movement or credential access.

Detects ERAAgent.exe performing suspicious dynamic API resolution for functions commonly used by the SLEEPWALKER malware (VirtualProtect, SetSecurityDescriptorDacl, and CryptGenRandom). By resolving these functions at runtime via GetProcAddress rather than including them in the static import table, the malware attempts to evade detection and analysis.

Detects a suspicious pattern associated with the SLEEPWALKER technique, involving multiple memory write operations followed by a memory protection change within an ERAAgent.exe process. This behavior suggests code injection or dynamic code loading within a process.

This rule detects suspicious file system activity (creation, modification, or renaming) performed by the ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) Agent process, excluding files within standard ESET installation and ProgramData directories. This behavior may indicate an adversary attempting to leverage the legitimate ERA agent to perform unauthorized file operations or masquerading as the agent.

This rule monitors process command lines for identifiers related to virtual machine communication interfaces such as 'VMCI', 'AF_VSOCK', 'svm_cid', or 'vm:2'. It specifically targets both the ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) Agent and any other processes utilizing these communication mechanisms, which can be indicators of inter-process communication across virtual machine boundaries or potential hypervisor-related activity.

This rule detects the use of raw sockets by 'ERAAgent.exe' by monitoring for socket I/O control (Ioctl) operations involving 'SIO_RCVALL'. This configuration, often associated with promiscuous mode, allows an application to capture all network traffic received by the network interface, a behavior commonly used by network sniffing tools or malicious implants to intercept sensitive data.

Detects instances where 'ERAAgent.exe', part of the ESET Remote Administrator agent, loads the 'dpapi.dll' library from a location outside of standard Windows System directories (System32 or SysWOW64). Furthermore, the rule flags this behavior if the loaded 'dpapi.dll' file is either unsigned or contains an untrusted digital signature, which may indicate a malicious DLL side-loading or masquerading attempt to access protected system credentials.

Detects instances where the SQL Server process (sqlservr.exe) initiates a child process that is a known command-line tool, script interpreter, or utility often used in living-off-the-land attacks, or when a child process is spawned from suspicious directory paths such as AppData, Temp, or Windows\Temp.

Detects malicious PDF attachments that masquerade as DocuSign remittance advice notifications. These PDFs contain embedded hyperlinks (via /URI or /Link action annotations) designed to redirect users to malicious external sites rather than legitimate DocuSign services, commonly used in phishing campaigns.
