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 | process event | DC0032 Process Creation |
| macos:unifiedlog | DirectoryService queries retrieving account information | DC0013 User Account Metadata |
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 |
|---|---|
CommandLine | Tune for dscl -list, dscacheutil -q user, id -un, etc. |
ExecutionContext | Alert if enumeration is performed in non-console session or by unusual users. |
