<p>Monitor for use of native utilities such as wevtutil.exe or PowerShell cmdlets (Get-WinEvent, Get-EventLog) to enumerate or export logs. Unusual access to security or system event channels, especially by non-administrative users or processes, should be correlated with subsequent file export or network transfer activity.</p>

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
WhitelistedAdminToolsExpected log management scripts executed by administrators should be excluded from alerts.
TimeWindowCorrelate enumeration attempts with file export or network transfer within a defined timeframe.
