Download CSV| Type | Name | Severity | Module | Data source / event | ATT&CK |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Analytics BIOC | A rare DLL, signed by an uncommon vendor, was hijacked into a Microsoft process A signed DLL was loaded into a Microsoft-signed process. This DLL hash and signature vendor are rare, which might indicate an attacker performing DLL hijacking. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence, Privilege Escalation, Defense Evasion |
| Analytics | A user logged on to multiple workstations via Schannel A user logged on to multiple workstations with a certificate via Schannel. This may be indicative of a compromised account. | Informational | Identity Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence, Privilege Escalation, Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | An uncommon lolbin execution by scheduled task A lolbin was executed with uncommon commandline by a scheduled task. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Execution of an uncommon process at an early startup stage Uncommon execution of an executable found in an early startup stage. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Execution of an uncommon process with a local/domain user SID at an early startup stage Execution of an uncommon process with a local/domain user SID at an early startup stage may be an indication of a persistent mechanism on boot that is being actively abused. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Globally uncommon injection from a signed process A signed process injected into another process that it does not normally target at a global level. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Defense Evasion, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Linux local user account creation A user executed a process associated with user account creation. | Informational | Identity Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Modification of PAM Modification of PAM configuration files. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence, Defense Evasion, Credential Access |
| Analytics BIOC | Possible DLL Hijack into a Microsoft process An unsigned DLL was loaded into a Microsoft signed process. This DLL name is usually signed by Microsoft, which might indicate an attacker performing DLL Hijacking. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence, Privilege Escalation, Defense Evasion |
| Analytics | Rare access to known advertising domains The endpoint performed many connections to unpopular advertising domains. This could indicate the presence of adware on the endpoint. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs, XDR Agent | Command and Control, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Scrcons.exe Rare Child Process The Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) standard event consumer scrcons.exe executed a rare VBScript or PowerShell script. Executing a rare script can be an indication of local or remote code execution abuse by an attacker. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Execution, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Signed process creates a scheduled task via file access A signed process created a scheduled task via file access. Attackers may create scheduled tasks for execution and to establish persistence. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Execution, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon Launch Agent persistency was registered or modified An uncommon Launch Agent persistence mechanism was registered/modified on the system. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon Launch Daemon persistency was registered or modified An uncommon Launch Daemon persistence mechanism was registered/modified on the system. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon local scheduled task creation via schtasks.exe The schtasks.exe command enables creating, deleting, querying, changing, running, and ending scheduled tasks on a local or remote computer. Adversaries may attempt to use the command to gain persistence on this host using scheduled tasks. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon login item persistency was registered or modified An uncommon login item persistence mechanism was registered/modified on the system. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon Managed Object Format (MOF) compiler usage The mofcomp.exe WMI MOF compiled is used to compile code into the WMI repository that in turn may enable attackers to run scheduled or triggered code from the context of a Microsoft-signed binary. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon net group command execution Uncommon net group command execution which may be used for groups and users enumeration and unauthorized user creation. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Discovery, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon net localgroup command execution Uncommon net localgroup command execution which may be used for group and user enumeration and unauthorized user creation. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Discovery, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon signed process execution by scheduled task An uncommon process was executed by a scheduled task. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon user management via net.exe The net.exe command is used to add, delete, and otherwise manage the users on a computer. Adversaries may attempt to use the command to discover or add local and domain user accounts. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Discovery, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Unsigned DLL Hijack into a Microsoft process An unsigned DLL was loaded into a Microsoft signed process. It is not common for the DLL to be loaded into Microsoft processes, which might indicate an attacker performing DLL Hijacking. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence, Privilege Escalation, Defense Evasion |
| Analytics BIOC | Unsigned DLL Side-Loading A signed process loaded an unsigned and rare module from the same folder. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Persistence, Privilege Escalation, Defense Evasion |
| Analytics BIOC | Weakly-Encrypted Kerberos TGT Response A weakly encrypted Kerberos TGT was issued by a domain controller. The encryption type is abnormal for this DC and results in a TGT that is easier to crack. This behavior may indicate a Skeleton Key attack. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs, XDR Agent | Credential Access, Defense Evasion, Persistence |
| Analytics BIOC | Web server CGO executed an uncommon process An uncommon process was executed by a web server CGO, which might indicate a Webshell activity or a web server exploit. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Initial Access, Persistence |
