"eli5": "This search looks for PowerShell processes that are passing command-line arguments with unusual characters (backticks and carets) that are PowerShell specific escape characters. Attackers use this obfuscation technique since it does not affect the functionality of PowerShell and it will bypass standard security controls that look for straight up malicious strings and commands. The search counts the occurrence of these obfuscation characters and lists out destination IPs running these PowerShell commands.",

"how_to_implement": "You must be ingesting data that records process activity from your hosts to populate the Endpoint data model in the Processes node. You must also be ingesting logs with both the process name and command line from your endpoints. The command-line arguments are mapped to the \"process\" field in the Endpoint data model.",
