type: Anomaly
datamodel:
- Endpoint
description: This search is to identifies suspicious firewall disabling using netsh
application. this technique is commonly seen in malware that tries to communicate
or download its component or other payload to its C2 server.
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where `process_netsh` Processes.process=
"*firewall*" (Processes.process= "*off*" OR Processes.process= "*disable*") by
Processes.dest Processes.user Processes.parent_process Processes.process_name Processes.original_file_name
Processes.process Processes.process_id Processes.parent_process_id | `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)`
| `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `disabling_firewall_with_netsh_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 `Processes` node. In addition,
confirm the latest CIM App 4.20 or higher is installed and the latest TA for the
endpoint product.
known_false_positives: admin may disable firewall during testing or fixing network
problem.
