description: DiskShadow.exe is a Microsoft Signed binary present on Windows Server.
It has a scripting mode intended for complex scripted backup operations. This feature
also allows for execution of arbitrary unsigned code. This analytic looks for the
usage of the scripting mode flags in executions of DiskShadow. During triage, compare
to known backup behavior in your environment and then review the scripts called
by diskshadow.
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where `process_diskshadow` (Processes.process=*-s*
OR Processes.process=*/s*) by Processes.dest Processes.user Processes.parent_process
Processes.process_name Processes.process Processes.process_id Processes.parent_process_id
| `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)` | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
| `windows_diskshadow_proxy_execution_filter`'
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search you need to be ingesting information
on processes 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: Administrators using the DiskShadow tool in their infrastructure
as a main backup tool with scripts will cause false positives that can be filtered
with `windows_diskshadow_proxy_execution_filter`
