DET0553 Detection Strategy for Obfuscated Files or Information: Binary Padding

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.

FileSizeThresholdMBPadded binary threshold for file size
TimeWindowDetection correlation window for execution after file creation
UserContextFilters for specific users or groups such as admin or service accounts
