+name: Creation of lsass Dump with Taskmgr
+id: b2fbe95a-9c62-4c12-8a29-24b97e84c0cd
+version: 1
+date: '2020-02-03'
+description: Detect the hands on keyboard behavior of Windows Task Manager creating a prcoess dump of lsass.exe.
+  Upon this behavior occurring, a file write/modification will occur in the users profile under \AppData\Local\Temp. 
+  The dump file, lsass.dmp, cannot be renamed, however if the dump occurs more than once, it will be named lsass (2).dmp. 
+how_to_implement: This search requires Sysmon Logs and a Sysmon configuration, which
+  includes EventCode 11 for detecting file create of lsass.dmp. 
+  This search uses an input macro named `sysmon`.
+  We strongly recommend that you specify your environment-specific configurations
+  (index, source, sourcetype, etc.) for Windows Sysmon logs. Replace the macro definition
+  with configurations for your Splunk environment. The search also uses a post-filter
+  macro designed to filter out known false positives.
