Description

This rule detects outbound connection attempts from unusual Linux process locations or common living-off-the-land utilities to autonomous systems associated with bulletproof or high-abuse hosting. Adversaries often stage payloads in world-writable or web directories and beacon to infrastructure that ignores abuse reports, including providers such as Storm Industries, Ecatel/IP Volume, Aeza, and Proton66.

Detection logic

Its licence does not clear it for publishing here

Sunturai publishes a detection's own text where the licence it arrived under has been reviewed and permits it, and Elastic License 2.0 has not. The query as its source wrote it, its canonical form and the hash that pins this revision are in the workspace record.
