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.

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.

FieldDescription
ParentProcessNameTo scope detections to suspicious parent-child process relationships typical of loaders or droppers.
AllocationSizeThresholdTo tune for unusually large virtual memory allocations that might indicate unpacked payloads.
