status: production

|
type: Anomaly
|
|
description: The following analytic is to identify a modification in the Windows registry
|
|
to enable remote desktop assistance on a targeted machine. This technique was seen
|
|
in several adversaries, malware or red teamer like azorult to remotely access the
|
|
compromised or targeted host by enabling this protocol in registry. Even this protocol
|
|
might be allowed in some production environment, This Anomaly behavior is a good
|
|
pivot to check who and why the user want to enable this feature through registry
|
|
which is un-common. And as per stated in microsoft documentation the default value
|
|
of this registry is false that makes this a good indicator of suspicious behavior.

|
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 `Registry` node. Also make sure
|
|
that this registry was included in your config files ex. sysmon config to be monitored.
|
|
known_false_positives: administrators may enable or disable this feature that may
|
|
cause some false positive.
