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 |
|---|---|---|
| macos:unifiedlog | log stream --predicate | DC0064 Command Execution |
| fs:plist_monitoring | /Users/*/Library/Mail/V*/MailData/RulesActiveState.plist | DC0061 File 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 |
|---|---|
RuleFilePath | Different Mail versions store rules in slightly different locations. |
ScriptTrigger | AppleScript usage for GUI automation may be common in automation workflows. |
