This guide details how to detect advanced process injection techniques (T1055) by analyzing rich Sysmon telemetry. It focuses on identifying cross-process memory operations, such as remote thread creation (Event 8), suspicious process access (Event 10), and memory divergence (ProcessTampering/Event 25), which are hallmarks of DLL injection and process hollowing. Ideal for threat hunters and security analysts investigating sophisticated defense evasion.

This guide details how to detect WMI event subscription persistence, a common attacker technique (T1546.003). It focuses on analyzing suspicious Sysmon Event IDs 19, 20, and 21 to identify malicious EventFilters, EventConsumers, and Bindings. Essential for incident response and threat hunting in Windows environments.

This skill detects WMI-based lateral movement by analyzing key Windows Security Event ID 4688 and Sysmon Event ID 1 logs. It focuses on identifying suspicious process execution patterns, such as WmiPrvSE.exe spawning unauthorized child processes (cmd.exe, powershell.exe), suspicious command lines, and WMI event subscriptions used for persistence. Ideal for security incident response and threat detection.

This skill focuses on threat hunting techniques to detect adversaries leveraging Living Off the Land Binaries (LOLBins). By analyzing detailed endpoint process creation logs (e.g., Sysmon), practitioners can identify suspicious execution patterns of legitimate Windows system binaries (like certutil, mshta, rundll32) used for malicious fileless attacks or defense evasion. It is crucial for improving detection coverage against advanced persistent threats.

This skill provides a structured methodology for detecting process injection techniques (MITRE ATT&CK T1055), which adversaries use for defense evasion and privilege escalation. It analyzes granular security logs, specifically utilizing Sysmon Event IDs 8 (CreateRemoteThread) and 10 (ProcessAccess), alongside source-target process relationship mapping to identify suspicious malicious behavior over general system activity.

This guide details a threat hunting technique for detecting persistence mechanisms utilizing Windows Registry Run keys (T1547.001). By analyzing Sysmon Event ID 13 logs, it identifies suspicious auto-start entries pointing to temporary directories, encoded PowerShell commands, or abused LOLBins. Essential for SOC analysts and security engineers investigating incidents and developing robust detection rules.

This guide provides a structured methodology for proactively hunting adversaries who establish persistence using Windows Scheduled Tasks (T1053). It outlines the necessary prerequisites (EDR, SIEM, Sysmon) and a comprehensive workflow—from hypothesis formulation to threat correlation—for detecting suspicious task creation, unusual scheduling patterns, and attacker TTPs during incident response or red teaming.

A comprehensive threat hunting methodology designed to detect adversary persistence and execution mechanisms utilizing Windows Scheduled Tasks (T1053.005). This guide covers analyzing task creation events (Event ID 4698), suspicious properties, unusual triggers, and correlating activity with process execution logs (Sysmon). Ideal for incident responders and security analysts conducting proactive threat hunting on compromised endpoints.

Monitors Windows process creation events to flag Living Off The Land Binary abuse by matching Event ID 4688/Sysmon 1 logs against LOLBAS database entries, supporting threat hunting and SIEM rule creation for fileless attacks.

This skill detects advanced lateral movement techniques used by attackers after initial compromise, mapping them to MITRE ATT&CK TA0008. It correlates multiple data sources, including Windows event logs (4624, 4769), Sysmon telemetry, network flow data, and endpoint logs, to identify suspicious activities like Pass-the-Hash, PsExec, WMI exploitation, RDP pivoting, and SMB spreading.

This skill detects stealthy lateral movement by monitoring the abuse of DCOM objects (MMC20.Application, ShellBrowserWindow, ShellWindows). It correlates Sysmon telemetry (Process Creation, Network Connections), WMI analysis, and RPC traffic to identify unauthorized remote command execution, aiding threat hunters and red teams.

A comprehensive guide and technical framework for detecting and mitigating ransomware kill switch mechanisms. It details methods for analyzing mutex guards, domain-based communication, and registry checks. Learn how to deploy proactive mutex vaccination and use Sysmon/DNS monitoring to prevent malware execution during incident response and analysis.
