description: This analytics are designed to indentify a high frequency of process
|
|
termination on a machine which is a common behavior of ransomware malware before
|
|
encrypting files. This technique is designed to avoid an exception error while accessing
|
|
(docs, images, database and etc..) in the infected machine for encryption.
|
|
search: '`sysmon` EventCode=5 |bin _time span=3s |stats values(Image) as proc_terminated
|
|
min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime count by Computer EventCode ProcessID
|
|
| where count >= 15 | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
|
|
| `high_process_termination_frequency_filter`'
|
|
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search, you need to be ingesting
|
|
logs with the Image (process full path of terminated process) from your endpoints.
|
|
If you are using Sysmon, you must have at least version 6.0.4 of the Sysmon TA.
|
|
known_false_positives: admin or user tool that can terminate multiple process.
