Detectors
Every Cortex detection rule the toolbox knows about — analytics alerts, BIOCs and correlation rules — in one filterable set.
8 detectors match the current filters. tactic: TA0005 ✕ technique: T1055 ✕
Download CSV| Type | Name | Severity | Module | Data source / event | ATT&CK |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Analytics BIOC | Microsoft Office injects code into a process An attacker may inject payloads into processes via Microsoft Office. While legitimate in certain cases, code injection can also be used in malicious ways. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Initial Access, Defense Evasion |
| BIOC | Notepad process makes a network connection Notepad.exe processes should not normally make network connections (with the occasional exception of printing documents). This can be a possible indicator of exploitation, e.g. Metasploit Meterpreter injection. | Low | Platform Analytics | Network | Defense Evasion |
| Analytics BIOC | Office process spawned with suspicious command-line arguments An Office process was executed with LOLBIN-like command-line arguments. This behavior is exhibited in the VBA-RunPE tool that executes executables from the memory of Word/Excel/PowerPoint. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Defense Evasion |
| Analytics BIOC | Suspicious DotNet log file created Payloads that use the DotNet framework may generate suspicious Microsoft DotNet log files. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Defense Evasion |
| Analytics BIOC | Uncommon NtWriteVirtualMemoryRemote API invocation with a PE header buffer A process wrote a PE header to another process by calling the NtWriteVirtualMemoryRemote API function. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Defense Evasion, Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics BIOC | Unsigned and unpopular process performed a DLL injection An unsigned process with low popularity injected a dll into another process. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Defense Evasion |
| Analytics BIOC | Unsigned and unpopular process performed an injection An unsigned process with low popularity injected code to another process. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Defense Evasion |
| Analytics BIOC | Wscript/Cscript loads .NET DLLs An unusual script loads .NET DLLs, possibly indicating JScriptToDotnet execution. | Low | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Defense Evasion |
