description: This analytic identifies a potential privilege escalation attempt to
perform malicious task. This registry modification is designed to allow the `Consent
Admin` to perform an operation that requires elevation without consent or credentials.
We also found this in some attacker to gain privilege escalation to the compromise
machine.
data_source:
- Sysmon Event ID 13

Registry.registry_value_name: ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin
TargetObject: '*\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Policies\\System*'
Details: '0x00000000'
condition: selection1
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search, you must be ingesting data
that records registry activity from your hosts to populate the endpoint data model
in the registry node. This is typically populated via endpoint detection-and-response
product, such as Carbon Black or endpoint data sources, such as Sysmon. The data
used for this search is typically generated via logs that report reads and writes
to the registry.
