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 |
|---|---|---|
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=11 | DC0039 File Creation |
| WinEventLog:Microsoft-Windows-SMBClient/Security | EventCode=31001 | DC0102 Network Share Access |
| WinEventLog:PowerShell | CommandLine=copy-item or robocopy from UNC path | DC0064 Command Execution |
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 |
|---|---|
StagingDirectory | Common directories such as C:\Temp, Downloads, or hidden folders used for remote staging |
RemotePathPatterns | UNC paths like \\10.* or \\domain\share indicating lateral data staging |
CopyToolPatterns | Usage of robocopy, xcopy, copy-item, or scheduled tasks performing cross-host copies |
