#### Description
|
|
|
|
This analytic looks for the execution of `powershell.exe` with command-line arguments utilized to discover remote systems. `Get-DomainController` is part of PowerView, a PowerShell tool used to perform enumeration on Windows domains. Red Teams and adversaries alike may leverage PowerView to enumerate domain groups for situational awareness and Active Directory Discovery.

|
|
|
|
#### How To Implement
|
|
To successfully implement this search you need to be ingesting information on process that include the name of the process responsible for the changes from your endpoints into the `Endpoint` datamodel in the `Processes` node.
|
|
|
|
#### Required field
|
|
* Processes.dest
|
|
* Processes.user
|
|
* Processes.parent_process_name
|
|
* Processes.parent_process
|
|
* Processes.original_file_name
|
|
* Processes.process_name
|
|
* Processes.process
|
|
* Processes.process_id
|
|
* Processes.parent_process_path
|
|
* Processes.process_path
|
|
* Processes.parent_process_id
|
|

|
|
|
|
#### Known False Positives
|
|
Administrators or power users may use PowerView for troubleshooting.
