# osquery-defense-kit
|
|
|
|
Real-world queries for using osquery as part of your detection & response pipeline.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Organization
|
|
|
|
* `detection/` - Threat detection queries tuned for alert generation.
|
|
* `response/` - Data collection to assist in responding to possible threats. Tuned for periodic evidence collection.
|
|
* `policy/` - Security policy queries tuned for alert generation.
|
|
|
|
Where suitable, queries are further divided up by [MITRE ATT&CK](https://attack.mitre.org/) tactics categories. Queries are periodically released in [osquery query pack](https://osquery.readthedocs.io/en/stable/deployment/configuration/#query-packs) format. See `Local Pack Generation` for more information.

## macOS Case Study: CloudMensis (April 2022)

Here is a partial list of what stages would have been detected by particular queries:
|
|
|
|
* *Initial Dropper Execution*, detected by:
|
|
* `c2/unexpected-talkers-macos.sql`
|
|
|
|

## False Positive Policy
|
|
|
|
We endeavor to exclude real-world false positives from our `detection` queries.
|
|
|
|
Managing false positives is easier said than done - pull requests are welcome!

|
|
## Tag Intervals Mapping
|
|
|
|
Our base interval is 1 hour (3600s), but this interval is modified by the tags in place:
|
|
|
|
* continuous: 15 seconds
|
|
* transient: 5 minutes
|
|
* persistent: 1 hour (default)
|
|
* postmortem: 6 hours
|
|
|
|
In addition, we'll also use the following modifier tags:
|
|
|
|
* Often: 4X as often (~1m for transient, 15 minutes for persistent)
|
|
* Seldom: 2X as seldomly (10 minutes for transient, 2 hours for persistent)
