description: The following analytic identifies the use of PowerShell downloading a
|
|
file using `DownloadFile` method. This particular method is utilized in many different
|
|
PowerShell frameworks to download files and output to disk. Identify the source
|
|
(IP/domain) and destination file and triage appropriately. If AMSI logging or PowerShell
|
|
transaction logs are available, review for further details of the implant.

|
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: False positives may be present and filtering will need to occur
|
|
by parent process or command line argument. It may be required to modify this query
|
|
to an EDR product for more granular coverage.
