description: The following analytic identifies the use of the Windows Disk Image Utility,
|
|
`dism.exe`, to remove Windows Defender. Adversaries may use `dism.exe` to disable
|
|
Defender before completing their objective.

|
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: Some legitimate administrative tools leverage `dism.exe` to
|
|
manipulate packages and features of the operating system. Filter as needed.
