HackTool - RedMimicry Winnti Playbook Execution

Sigma Rules

View Source
Summary
The rule focuses on detecting potential malicious actions executed by the RedMimicry Winnti playbook, a tool used for automated breach emulations. It identifies process creation events associated with specific executable names, notably 'rundll32.exe' and 'cmd.exe', along with command line arguments that may indicate suspicious behavior. The command line checks for the presence of particular DLLs or scripts, including 'gthread-3.6.dll', 'sigcmm-2.4.dll', and temporary batch files. Given the automated nature of the RedMimicry tool and its association with common evasion techniques, the rule prioritizes high-level alerts to assist security teams in identifying and responding to potential breaches orchestrated via the set playbook. As it relates to automated attacks often employing obfuscation and less conspicuous processes, proper tuning of this rule will be critical to minimize false positives while maximizing detection of legitimate threats. The rule is tailored for Windows environments and enhances overall threat detection capabilities through detailed logging and monitoring of process creation activities relevant to known attack techniques.
