Remote Desktop Protocol - SharpRDP
Id | cc46e76c-0d04-40b0-9c8b-929aa40513e7 |
Rulename | Remote Desktop Protocol - SharpRDP |
Description | This detection monitors for the behavior that SharpRDP exhibits on the target system. The most relevant is leveraging taskmgr.exe to gain elevated execution, which means that taskmgr.exe is creating unexpected child processes. |
