description: The following analytic utilizes PowerShell Script Block Logging (EventCode=4104)
to identify the execution of the `GetCurrent` method of the WindowsIdentity .NET
class. This method returns an object that represents the current Windows user. Red
Teams and adversaries may leverage this method to identify the logged user on a
compromised endpoint for situational awareness and Active Directory Discovery.
search: '`powershell` EventCode=4104 ScriptBlockText = "*[System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]*" ScriptBlockText = "*GetCurrent()*"
| stats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime by EventCode ScriptBlockText Computer user_id
| `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
| `getcurrent_user_with_powershell_script_block_filter`'
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this analytic, you will need to enable
PowerShell Script Block Logging on some or all endpoints. Additional setup here
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/UBA/5.0.4.1/GetDataIn/AddPowerShell#Configure_module_logging_for_PowerShell.
known_false_positives: Administrators or power users may use this PowerShell commandlet
for troubleshooting.
