The 'Linux Deletion Of Services' analytic rule is designed to identify the unauthorized deletion of service files on Linux machines, specifically within critical system directories such as /etc/systemd/, /lib/systemd/, and /run/systemd/. By monitoring filesystem events generated by Sysmon for Linux, the rule flags instances where files with a '.service' extension are deleted, indicating potential malicious activity. Attackers often remove or modify services to disrupt security mechanisms or to conceal their presence during an attack. Consequently, this rule plays a crucial role in detecting behaviors that may compromise system integrity or functionality, prompting immediate investigation into the responsible processes and users. The implementation necessitates proper logging from Sysmon to capture necessary data points for effective alerting and review.
