Detectors
Every Cortex detection rule the toolbox knows about — analytics alerts, BIOCs and correlation rules — in one filterable set.
2 detectors match the current filters. tactic: TA0011 ✕ technique: T1048 ✕

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Analytics | DNS Tunneling 10 KB or more were sent encoded in subdomain names during a 10-minute window. All subdomains queried were under a single suspicious domain. DNS tunneling encodes data in DNS queries and responses, allowing an attacker to bypass firewalls and proxies to reach his or her command and control server, even when HTTP/S traffic is blocked. The endpoint may be remotely controlled by an attacker, and/or an attacker may have exfiltrated data from it. This detector is not supported when networking events arrive solely from Cortex XDR Linux agents. | Low | Platform Analytics | Palo Alto Networks Firewall EAL Logs, XDR Agent | Command and Control, Exfiltration |
