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 |
|---|---|---|
| esxi:vmkernel | /var/log/vmkernel.log | DC0061 File Modification |
Mutable elements

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
TimestampAgeComparison | Unusual backdating to match legit files |
PersistenceOverlap | Overlap with known persistence paths |
