description: this detection was designed to identifies suspicious spawned process
of known MS office application due to macro or malicious code. this technique can
be seen in so many malware like trickbot that used MS office as its weapon or attack
vector to initially infect the machines.

how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search, you need to be ingesting
logs with the process name, parent process, and command-line executions from your
endpoints. If you are using Sysmon, you must have at least version 6.0.4 of the
Sysmon TA.
