datamodel:
- Endpoint
description: This analytic looks for the execution of `powerhsell.exe` with command-line
arguments that execute the `GetCurrent` method of the WindowsIdentity .NET class.
This method returns an object that represents the current Windows user. Red Teams
and adversaries may leverage this method to identify the logged user on a compromised
endpoint for situational awareness and Active Directory Discovery.
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where (Processes.process_name="powershell.exe")
(Processes.process=*System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity* OR Processes.process=*GetCurrent()*)
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)` | `getcurrent_user_with_powershell_filter`'
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.
known_false_positives: Administrators or power users may use this command for troubleshooting.
