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:EXECVE | None | DC0032 Process Creation |
| linux:osquery | file_events | DC0061 File Modification |
| linux:syslog | kmod | DC0016 Module Load |
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 |
|---|---|
MonitoredDirectories | Directories where kernel modules or tampering could be staged (e.g., /lib/modules/). |
ModuleNamePattern | Regex or heuristic match to anomalous module names (e.g., suspicious entropy or gibberish). |
LD_PRELOAD | Monitor presence of suspicious preload values that mask processes or files. |
