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 |
|---|---|---|
| macos:unifiedlog | Access to ~/Library/*/Safari or Chrome directories by non-browser processes | DC0055 File Access |
| macos:osquery | process reading browser configuration paths | DC0032 Process Creation |
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 |
|---|---|
BrowserDBPath | System-specific paths to browser databases in user Library folders |
NonBrowserProcessList | Processes not expected to touch browser DBs (e.g., curl, bash, python) |
