description: This analytic is to look for dd command to overwrite file. This technique
  was abused by adversaries or threat actor to destroy files or data on specific system
  or in a large number of host within network to interrupt host avilability, services
  and many more. This is also used to destroy data where it make the file irrecoverable
  by forensic techniques through overwriting files, data or local and remote drives.
data_source:
- Sysmon Event ID 1
search:
  selection1:
    CommandLine: '*of='
    Image|endswith: dd
  condition: selection1
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search, you need to be ingesting
  logs with the process name, parent process, and command-line executions from your
  endpoints. If you are using Sysmon, you can use the Add-on for Linux Sysmon from
  Splunkbase.
known_false_positives: Administrator or network operator can execute this command.
  Please update the filter macros to remove false positives.
