|

This rule detects the creation of pods or containers that execute suspicious commands often associated with persistence or
|
||||
privilege escalation techniques. Attackers may use container orchestration tools like kubectl or container runtimes like
|
||||
docker to create pods or containers that run shell commands with arguments that indicate attempts to establish persistence
|
||||
(e.g., modifying startup scripts, creating backdoors).
