Summary
This rule detects potentially unsafe changes in the Windows registry that affect Office trust records. It identifies modifications made to registry paths specifically dealing with trusted documents located in suspect directories. The detection logic monitors registry entries for any changes in the target object that are found within paths such as the Internet cache, temporary files, public user folders, or removable storage drives. The emphasis is on recognizing attempts to bypass security measures by targeting the locations often associated with malicious document delivery or storage avenues. Registry changes are flagged as suspicious when they involve entries related to \Security\Trusted Documents\TrustRecords, indicating a potential attempt at defense evasion through these trusted document modifications.
