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:PATH | file read | DC0055 File Access |
| auditd:EXECVE | execve | 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 |
|---|---|
FilenamePattern | Filter for filenames like *.nmconnection or profiles containing SSID names |
UserContext | Distinguish between root/admin script usage vs. non-privileged terminal access |
