DeepBlueCLI is available here.

Leave Only Footprints: When Prevention Fails

Here are links and EVTX files from my SANS Blue Team Summit keynote Leave Only Footprints: When Prevention Fails.

• Here are my slides
• Here are the EVTX files
• Sysmon
• The Rise of C2 Frameworks
• Most Popular C2 Frameworks – May 2023
• Busting the Ghost in the Logs - Randy Pargman & Jean-Francois Maes
• Tracking Malware with Import Hashing
• Impacket
• Hydra
• Metasploit
• Sliver 
• Enabling logging of failed logons on Windows

Here are a few Powershell commands to parse the logs (also check out DeepBlueCLI):

• Any command referencing ADMIN$:
• Get-WinEvent @{Path="metasploit-sysmon.evtx";id=1} | Where {$_.Message -like "*ADMIN$*"} | fl
• Any command referencing both cmd.exe and wmiprvse.exe:
• Get-WinEvent @{Path="metasploit-sysmon.evtx";id=1} | Where {$_.Message -like "*cmd.exe*" –and $_.Message -like "*wmiprvse*"} | fl
• Create Remote Thread (Hashdump and process migration): 
• Get-WinEvent @{Path="metasploit-sysmon.evtx";id=8} | fl
