- Endpoint
description: this search is to identify registry modification to disable control panel
window. This technique is commonly seen in malware to prevent their artifacts ,
persistence removed on the infected machine.
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Registry where Registry.registry_path= "*\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Policies\\Explorer\\NoControlPanel"
Registry.registry_value_name = "DWORD (0x00000001)" by Registry.registry_path Registry.registry_key_name
Registry.registry_value_name Registry.dest | `drop_dm_object_name(Registry)` | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `disabling_controlpanel_filter`'
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 `Registry` node. Also make sure
that this registry was included in your config files ex. sysmon config to be monitored.
known_false_positives: admin may disable this application for non technical user.
