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 |
|---|---|---|
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=13, 14 | DC0063 Windows Registry Key Modification |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=11 | DC0039 File Creation |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=7 | DC0016 Module Load |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=1 | 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 |
|---|---|
RegistryPathScope | May need to be tuned to only monitor `W32Time\TimeProviders` subkey path for performance optimization |
UserContext | Should focus on activity from administrative or SYSTEM accounts |
TimeWindow | Controls correlation window between registry modification and DLL drop |
DllPathEntropyThreshold | Used for anomaly scoring on DLL path patterns (e.g., random names or temp directories) |
