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 must have at least version 6.0.4 of the Sysmon TA.

Required field

  • _time
  • Processes.process_name
  • Processes.process
  • Processes.parent_process_name
  • Processes.parent_process
  • Processes.dest
  • Processes.user
  • Processes.process_id
  • Processes.process_guid

Kill Chain Phase

  • Exploitation

Known False Positives

third party tool may have same command line parameters as revil ransomware.
