Type Name Severity Module Data source / event ATT&CK
Analytics BIOC A compressed file was exfiltrated over SSH Exfiltration of a compressed file over SSH. Informational Platform Analytics XDR Agent Exfiltration
Analytics BIOC A Torrent client was detected on a host The host produced traffic consistent with the BitTorrent protocol. Torrent usage may expose the organization to malware or enable attackers or malicious insiders to exfiltrate data. Informational Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent, Third-Party Firewalls Exfiltration, Initial Access
BIOC BitTorrent P2P file sharing The host used BitTorrent for P2P file sharing (according to the App-ID), which is typically not allowed in corporate networks and may be used to exfiltrate information. Informational Platform Analytics Dml connection Exfiltration
BIOC Curl connects to an external network Curl is a command-line utility used to transfer data. Attackers may use curl to exfiltrate data outside your organization. Informational Platform Analytics Network Exfiltration
BIOC Microsoft Office spawns curl/wget on a macOS device Microsoft Office Word/Excel/PowerPoint/Outlook spawn wget/curl on a macOS device. Informational Platform Analytics Process execution Exfiltration
Analytics BIOC Possible IPFS traffic was detected The host attempted to access other nodes in an IPFS manner. Informational Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent Exfiltration, Initial Access
Analytics BIOC Possible use of IPFS was detected The host produced traffic consistent with IPFS. Informational Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent Exfiltration, Initial Access
Analytics BIOC Python HTTP server started Python HTTP server started - possible exfiltration over HTTP. Informational Platform Analytics XDR Agent Exfiltration
Analytics BIOC Rare SMTP/S Session The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and its SSL-secured variant SMTPS are used to send email. Attackers can use SMTP/S to exfiltrate data from your network. Informational Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent, Third-Party Firewalls Exfiltration
BIOC Scripting engine makes connections over DNS ports Scripting engine makes connections over DNS ports should not happen, as DNS traffic is typically managed by svchost and sometimes the browsers. Attackers are known to use DNS traffic to exfiltrate data and avoid detection. Informational Platform Analytics Network Exfiltration
Analytics Suspicious DNS traffic 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. Informational Platform Analytics Palo Alto Networks Firewall traffic Logs, XDR Agent Command and Control, Exfiltration
BIOC Unsigned process makes connections over DNS ports An unsigned process makes connections over DNS ports should not happen, as DNS traffic is typically managed by svchost and sometimes the browsers. Attackers are known to use DNS traffic to exfiltrate data and avoid detection. Informational Platform Analytics Network Exfiltration
Analytics BIOC WebDAV drive mounted from net.exe over HTTPS Attackers may mount a WebDAV drive over HTTPS to upload files to and download files from a compromised machine. Informational Platform Analytics XDR Agent Exfiltration
BIOC Wget connection to an external network Wget is a command-line utility used to transfer data. Attackers may use wget to exfiltrate data outside your organization. Informational Platform Analytics Network Exfiltration
