description: This search is to detect a suspicious creation of image in appdata folder
made by process that also has a file reference in appdata folder. This technique
was seen in remcos rat that capture screenshot of the compromised machine and place
it in the appdata and will be send to its C2 server. This TTP is really a good indicator
to check that process because it is in suspicious folder path and image files are
not commonly created by user in this folder path.

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.
