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:Security | EventCode=4738, 4728, 4670 | DC0010 User Account Modification |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=1 | DC0032 Process 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 |
|---|---|
TimeWindow | Time between suspicious process and account change (e.g., 5m). |
HighPrivilegeGroupList | Customize group list (e.g., Domain Admins, Enterprise Admins) to monitor. |
SubjectTargetMismatch | Flag if account modifier != modified user (potential hijack). |
