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 |
|---|---|---|
| auditd:EXECVE | execve | DC0032 Process Creation |
| linus:syslog | None | 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 |
|---|---|
ExecutableName | Common window management utilities can be tuned to reduce noise (e.g., xprop, xwininfo). |
DisplayContext | Restrict detection to processes executing under graphical sessions (e.g., DISPLAY=:0). |
