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=4697 | DC0060 Service Creation |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=1 | DC0032 Process Creation |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=13, 14 | DC0063 Windows Registry Key Modification |
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 |
|---|---|
ServiceNamePattern | Regex patterns to flag unusual service names or binaries |
ParentProcessFilter | List of non-administrative processes starting service management tools |
RegistryPathList | Monitored autorun locations (e.g., `HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services`) |
