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=1 | DC0032 Process Creation |
| WinEventLog:Application | Service crash, unhandled exception, or application hang warnings for critical services (e.g., IIS, DNS, SQL Server) | DC0038 Application Log Content |
| WinEventLog:System | System shutdowns due to bugcheck (Event ID 1001) or watchdog timer expirations | DC0018 Host Status |
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 |
|---|---|
TimeWindow | Number of service crashes or high-CPU events within a defined time period |
ServiceTarget | Specific service name or executable targeted for DoS (e.g., svchost.exe, w3wp.exe) |
CPUThresholdPercent | CPU usage percent considered anomalous over duration |
