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 |
|---|---|---|
| WinEventLog:Security | EventCode=4688 | DC0032 Process Creation |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=6 | DC0079 Driver Load |
| WinEventLog:Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Boot | Firmware integrity validation failed or boot configuration tampered | DC0004 Firmware 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 |
|---|---|
ParentImage | Common legitimate flash tool chains can be allowlisted |
CommandLine | Flags indicating silent or forced flash may vary |
