This rule is designed to detect modifications to the Windows registry value "NoLMHash" that allow the storage of LAN Manager (LM) hashes for user passwords. By monitoring process creation events, specifically those that involve changes to the registry path \System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa, the rule identifies when the "NoLMHash" value is set to "0" (DWORD). Storing LM hashes poses a security risk as they can be easily cracked, allowing attackers to potentially access user accounts. Given that LM hashes are considered outdated and insecure, this rule helps in mitigating risks associated with using weak password storage mechanisms in Windows environments.
