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:hostd | command log | DC0064 Command Execution |
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 |
|---|---|
ExecutionOriginCheck | Detect commands executed outside normal management interfaces (e.g., SSH or root shell). |
ExpectedAdminAccessWindow | Timeframe when host connection audits are expected (e.g., maintenance windows). |
