description: This analytic identifies adversaries who manipulate the security permissions
|
|
of specific files or directories by granting additional access. This technique is
|
|
frequently observed in the tradecraft of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) and
|
|
coinminer scripts. The objective behind this behavior is to actively evade detection
|
|
mechanisms and tightly control access to their associated files. By identifying
|
|
these security permission modifications, we can improve our ability to identify
|
|
and respond to potential threats, thereby minimizing the impact of malicious activities
|
|
on the system.

search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
|
|
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where Processes.process_name IN( "icacls.exe",
|
|
"cacls.exe", "xcacls.exe") AND Processes.process IN ("*/grant*", "*/G*") by Processes.parent_process_name

|

| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `icacls_grant_command_filter`'
|
|
how_to_implement: The detection is based on data that originates from Endpoint Detection
|
|
and Response (EDR) agents. These agents are designed to provide security-related
|
|
telemetry from the endpoints where the agent is installed. To implement this search,
|
|
you must ingest logs that contain the process GUID, process name, and parent process.
|
|
Additionally, you must ingest complete command-line executions. These logs must
|
|
be processed using the appropriate Splunk Technology Add-ons that are specific to
|
|
the EDR product. The logs must also be mapped to the `Processes` node of the `Endpoint`
|
|
data model. Use the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) to normalize the field
|
|
names and speed up the data modeling process.
|
|
known_false_positives: Unknown. Filter as needed.
