The rule 'System Scripts Autorun Keys Modification' is designed to detect changes to the AutoStart Extensibility Points (ASEPs) in the Windows registry, specifically targeting registry paths related to system scripts such as Startup, Shutdown, Logon, and Logoff scripts. This detection aims to identify potential persistence mechanisms used by threat actors to maintain access to a compromised machine. By monitoring specific registry modifications, this rule can help security teams recognize malicious activities that align with known tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) associated with persistence threats (MITRE ATT&CK T1547.001). The rule checks for modifications in the registry keys under '\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\Scripts', as well as within the common autostart categories, and alerts when unauthorized changes are detected. However, false positives may occur during legitimate administrative activities or software installations that require updating these keys for legitimate purposes. The rule is particularly useful for maintaining a baseline of expected behavior in system configurations and ensuring compliance with organizational policies regarding autorun settings.
