Remote Access Tool - LogMeIn Execution
An adversary may use legitimate desktop support and remote access software, such as Team Viewer, Go2Assist, LogMein, AmmyyAdmin, etc, to establish an interactive command and control channel to target systems within networks. These services are commonly used as legitimate technical support software, and may be allowed by application control within a target environment. Remote access tools like VNC, Ammyy, and Teamviewer are used frequently when compared with other legitimate software commonly used by adversaries. (Citation: Symantec Living off the Land)
Remote Access Tool - MeshAgent Command Execution via MeshCentral
Detects the use of MeshAgent to execute commands on the target host, particularly when threat actors might abuse it to execute commands directly. MeshAgent can execute commands on the target host by leveraging win-console to obscure their activities and win-dispatcher to run malicious code through IPC with child processes.
Remote Access Tool - NetSupport Execution
An adversary may use legitimate desktop support and remote access software, such as Team Viewer, Go2Assist, LogMein, AmmyyAdmin, etc, to establish an interactive command and control channel to target systems within networks. These services are commonly used as legitimate technical support software, and may be allowed by application control within a target environment. Remote access tools like VNC, Ammyy, and Teamviewer are used frequently when compared with other legitimate software commonly used by adversaries. (Citation: Symantec Living off the Land)
Remote Access Tool - NetSupport Execution From Unusual Location
Detects execution of client32.exe (NetSupport RAT) from an unusual location (outside of 'C:\Program Files')
Remote Access Tool - Potential MeshAgent Execution - MacOS
Detects potential execution of MeshAgent which is a tool used for remote access. Historical data shows that threat actors rename MeshAgent binary to evade detection. Matching command lines with the '--meshServiceName' argument can indicate that the MeshAgent is being used for remote access.
Remote Access Tool - Potential MeshAgent Execution - Windows
Detects potential execution of MeshAgent which is a tool used for remote access. Historical data shows that threat actors rename MeshAgent binary to evade detection. Matching command lines with the '--meshServiceName' argument can indicate that the MeshAgent is being used for remote access.
Remote Access Tool - Renamed MeshAgent Execution - MacOS
Detects the execution of a renamed instance of the Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tool, MeshAgent. RMM tools such as MeshAgent are commonly utilized by IT administrators for legitimate remote support and system management. However, malicious actors may exploit these tools by renaming them to bypass detection mechanisms, enabling unauthorized access and control over compromised systems.
Remote Access Tool - Renamed MeshAgent Execution - Windows
Detects the execution of a renamed instance of the Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tool, MeshAgent. RMM tools such as MeshAgent are commonly utilized by IT administrators for legitimate remote support and system management. However, malicious actors may exploit these tools by renaming them to bypass detection mechanisms, enabling unauthorized access and control over compromised systems.
Remote Access Tool - RURAT Execution From Unusual Location
Detects execution of Remote Utilities RAT (RURAT) from an unusual location (outside of 'C:\Program Files')
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Command Execution
Detects command execution via ScreenConnect RMM
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Execution
An adversary may use legitimate desktop support and remote access software, such as Team Viewer, Go2Assist, LogMein, AmmyyAdmin, etc, to establish an interactive command and control channel to target systems within networks. These services are commonly used as legitimate technical support software, and may be allowed by application control within a target environment. Remote access tools like VNC, Ammyy, and Teamviewer are used frequently when compared with other legitimate software commonly used by adversaries. (Citation: Symantec Living off the Land)
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect File Transfer
Detects file being transferred via ScreenConnect RMM
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Installation Execution
Detects ScreenConnect program starts that establish a remote access to a system.
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Potential Suspicious Remote Command Execution
Detects potentially suspicious child processes launched via the ScreenConnect client service.
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Remote Command Execution
Detects the execution of a system command via the ScreenConnect RMM service.
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Remote Command Execution - Hunting
Detects remote binary or command execution via the ScreenConnect Service. Use this rule in order to hunt for potentially anomalous executions originating from ScreenConnect
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Server Web Shell Execution
Detects potential web shell execution from the ScreenConnect server process.
Remote Access Tool - ScreenConnect Temporary File
Detects the creation of files in a specific location by ScreenConnect RMM. ScreenConnect has feature to remotely execute binaries on a target machine. These binaries will be dropped to ":\Users\<username>\Documents\ConnectWiseControl\Temp\" before execution.
Remote Access Tool - Simple Help Execution
An adversary may use legitimate desktop support and remote access software, such as Team Viewer, Go2Assist, LogMein, AmmyyAdmin, etc, to establish an interactive command and control channel to target systems within networks. These services are commonly used as legitimate technical support software, and may be allowed by application control within a target environment. Remote access tools like VNC, Ammyy, and Teamviewer are used frequently when compared with other legitimate software commonly used by adversaries. (Citation: Symantec Living off the Land)
Remote Access Tool - TacticalRMM Agent Registration to Potentially Attacker-Controlled Server
Detects TacticalRMM agent installations where the --api, --auth, and related flags are used on the command line. These parameters configure the agent to connect to a specific RMM server with authentication, client ID, and site ID. This technique could indicate a threat actor attempting to register the agent with an attacker-controlled RMM infrastructure silently.
Remote Access Tool - Team Viewer Session Started On Linux Host
Detects the command line executed when TeamViewer starts a session started by a remote host. Once a connection has been started, an investigator can verify the connection details by viewing the "incoming_connections.txt" log file in the TeamViewer folder.
Remote Access Tool - Team Viewer Session Started On MacOS Host
Detects the command line executed when TeamViewer starts a session started by a remote host. Once a connection has been started, an investigator can verify the connection details by viewing the "incoming_connections.txt" log file in the TeamViewer folder.
Remote Access Tool - Team Viewer Session Started On Windows Host
Detects the command line executed when TeamViewer starts a session started by a remote host. Once a connection has been started, an investigator can verify the connection details by viewing the "incoming_connections.txt" log file in the TeamViewer folder.
Remote Access Tool - UltraViewer Execution
An adversary may use legitimate desktop support and remote access software, such as Team Viewer, Go2Assist, LogMein, AmmyyAdmin, etc, to establish an interactive command and control channel to target systems within networks. These services are commonly used as legitimate technical support software, and may be allowed by application control within a target environment.
