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 |
|---|---|---|
| esxi:hostd | CLI network calls | DC0078 Network Traffic Flow |
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 |
|---|---|
ScheduledTaskName | Can tune for task names used to execute curl-based outbound requests |
DestinationIP | Scoped by environment to exclude known legitimate CDNs |
