WIZARD SPIDER
Behaviour (ATT&CK technique)
Shadow copy or backup catalog deletion (T1490)Each branch needs both the binary and the destructive verb (delete shadows / shadowcopy delete / recoveryenabled no / delete catalog); listing or creating shadow copies does not match.

Behaviour (ATT&CK technique)
PowerShell download cradle executed from the command line (T1059.001)All three conditions must hold (PowerShell binary, a download method, an execute verb); plain Invoke-WebRequest file downloads and encoded management scripts do not match.
Behaviour (ATT&CK technique)
Microsoft Defender protection disabled via Set-MpPreference (T1685)Requires Set-MpPreference together with a Disable* protection switch; exclusion management alone does not match. The value is not parsed — a re-enable ($false) also matches, so review before auto-response.

Behaviour (ATT&CK technique)
rclone copy or sync to remote storage (T1567.002)Matches only rclone running copy/sync; listing, config and mount do not match. Renamed rclone binaries are not covered by the Cortex/QRadar versions (Sigma also checks the PE description).

How to deploy
SIGSigma
- 1.Convert for your SIEM with sigma-cli / pySigma, e.g. sigma convert -t splunk -p sysmon rule.yml.
- 2.Run it as a hunt first: every rule ships as status experimental.
- 3.Promote to an alert once a week of results is clean on your data.
Check · The processing pipeline must map the logsource (firewall, dns, proxy, webserver, process_creation) to your field names.
AQLIBM QRadar
- 1.Create the reference set from its spec (Reference Data API, or Admin > Reference Set Management) and schedule the skopnix feed load.
- 2.Paste the AQL into Log Activity > Advanced Search to hunt the last seven days.
- 3.For alerting, build the CRE rule from the test stack shown and exclude your known-good building block.
Check · Custom properties ("URL Host", "URL", "File Hash", "Process CommandLine") come from your DSMs and content extensions; rename them if yours differ.
XQLCortex XDR
- 1.Paste the XQL into Incident Response > Investigation > Query Builder > XQL Search.
- 2.To alert, save it as a Correlation Rule and set the MITRE tactic and technique printed with the rule.
- 3.Schedule it on the interval you hunt at; keep the fields stage for the alert's columns.
Check · CVE rules read PAN-OS URL logs (panw_ngfw_url_raw), which need the NGFW integration and, for HTTPS, decryption.
