Log sources and channels
Exactly as MITRE states them in x_mitre_log_source_references. Where a channel is vague, it is vague in the source; kevmap does not tidy it.
| Log source | Channel | Data component |
|---|---|---|
| macos:unifiedlog | connection attempts | DC0082 Network Connection Creation |
| macos:osquery | process_events | DC0032 Process Creation |
| NSM:Flow | session behavior | DC0085 Network Traffic Content |
Mutable elements
Parameters MITRE marks as environment-specific. These are the knobs you are expected to tune; they are why an analytic is not a rule.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
ParentProcessCheck | Allow filtering based on parent-child relationship for benign services. |
HostWhitelist | Known legitimate C2-like patterns (e.g., Apple telemetry). |
