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:Security | EventCode=4688 | DC0032 Process Creation |
| WinEventLog:System | EventCode=7045 | DC0060 Service Creation |
| WinEventLog:Sysmon | EventCode=12 | DC0056 Windows Registry Key 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 |
|---|---|
ProcessWhitelist | Exclude authorized administrative tools that stop services during maintenance. |
ServiceNamePatterns | Refine which services are considered security-critical (e.g., AV, EDR, firewall). |
