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 | log collect --predicate | DC0032 Process Creation |
| fs:fsusage | Filesystem Call Monitoring | DC0055 File Access |
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 |
|---|---|
PredicateScope | Adjust macOS unified log filter to include/exclude system paths |
TimeWindow | Tune based on burst access patterns |
