๐ Key Highlights ๐ Suspicious Network and Shell Activity ๐ Introduced new analytics for browser-spawned Unix shells with external connections, uncommon and rare network connections from LOLBAS binaries, and suspicious Socat listener and remote TCP activity. This coverage helps defenders identify potential command execution, network tunneling, proxying, and command-and-control behavior originating from browsers or trusted system utilities. ๐ macOS AppleScript and User Interaction ๐ Added two macOS analytics covering AppleScript shell execution and compilation, as well as suspicious user prompts displayed through osascript. These detections improve visibility into script-based execution and potentially deceptive user interaction used to facilitate malicious activity on macOS endpoints. ๐ช Windows Account and Browser Activity ๐ช Expanded Windows coverage with detections for changes to built-in account names and execution of content copied from a browser. These analytics help identify account manipulation and suspicious execution workflows that may involve commands or payloads copied from web content. ๐งฉ SCCM Abuse Detection ๐งฉ Introduced two analytics focused on suspicious SCCM activity: DLL planting in the SMS Provider directory and abnormal child-process execution spawned by smsexec. This provides stronger visibility into potential abuse of SCCM components for execution, persistence, or lateral movement. ๐ง Cross-Platform Detection Refinements ๐ง Updated 18 analytics across Citrix, Windows, Linux, and macOS environments. The refinements improve coverage and detection fidelity for Citrix ADC exploitation, pipe-based execution, file and process activity, data destruction, Ghostscript exploitation, account creation, data chunking, network discovery, PowerShell, event-log manipulation, user and private-key discovery, credential access, and execution from suspicious paths. ๐๏ธ Detection and AI Risk Classification ๐๏ธ Together with NIST AI RMF Control Coverage dashboard, weโve added the detection_subcategory_map and nist_ai_rmf_subcategories lookups to improve analytic categorization, detection metadata, and alignment with NIST AI Risk Management Framework subcategories.

This helps security teams identify coverage gaps and turn technical telemetry into clearer risk and governance insights. Two new lookups detection_subcategory_map, nist_ai_rmf_subcategories were added to support the NIST AI RMF Dashboard.

Sources represented on this page. Publication and observation dates describe the content; successful batch dates describe local collection. A recent batch does not certify complete coverage or current provider availability.
1 sources: 0 stale, 0 needing attention, 0 paused, 0 unverified.
Stale means older than twice the recorded collection interval, with a minimum of one hour; without an interval, the threshold is 24 hours. Cached content remains available while a feed is stale, paused, or unverified.
