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 |
|---|---|---|
| NSM:Flow | http.log, ssl.log | DC0085 Network Traffic Content |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=3, 22 | DC0082 Network Connection Creation |
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 |
|---|---|
ProcessNameExclusions | Filter out legitimate browser/network utilities |
UserAgentAnomalies | Detect non-browser user-agents or spoofed headers |
OutboundByteRatioThreshold | Flag when outbound > inbound volume by 90%+ |
