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 | execution of security-agent detection or enumeration commands | DC0064 Command Execution |
| auditd:SYSCALL | execve | DC0032 Process Creation |
