name: MacOS - Re-opened Applications
id: 40bb64f9-f619-4e3d-8732-328d40377c4b
version: 1

status: experimental
type: TTP
description: This search looks for processes referencing the plist files that determine
which applications are re-opened when a user reboots their machine.
data_source:
- Sysmon Event ID 1
search:
selection1:
CommandLine: '*com.apple.loginwindow*'
condition: selection1
how_to_implement: In order to properly run this search, Splunk needs to ingest process
data from your osquery deployed agents with the [splunk.conf](https://github.com/splunk/TA-osquery/blob/master/config/splunk.conf)
pack enabled. Also the [TA-OSquery](https://github.com/splunk/TA-osquery) must be
deployed across your indexers and universal forwarders in order to have the data
populate the Endpoint data model.
known_false_positives: At this stage, there are no known false positives. During testing,
no process events refering the com.apple.loginwindow.plist files were observed during
normal operation of re-opening applications on reboot. Therefore, it can be asumed
that any occurences of this in the process events would be worth investigating.
In the event that the legitimate modification by the system of these files is in
fact logged to the process log, then the process_name of that process can be added
to an allow list.
