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 |
|---|---|---|
| auditd:SYSCALL | open, unlink, rename: File creation or deletion involving critical stored data | DC0039 File Creation |
| auditd:SYSCALL | write: Modification of structured stored data by suspicious processes | DC0061 File Modification |
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 |
|---|---|
WatchedPaths | Environment-specific paths where business-critical stored data resides. |
CommandExclusions | Legitimate scripts/utilities excluded to minimize false positives. |
