Identifies Linux processes that do not usually use the network but have unexpected network activity, which can indicate
command-and-control, lateral movement, persistence, or data exfiltration activity. A process with unusual network
activity can denote process exploitation or injection, where the process is used to run persistence mechanisms that
allow a malicious actor remote access or control of the host, data exfiltration, and execution of unauthorized network
applications.

### Investigating Unusual Network Activity
Detection alerts from this rule indicate the presence of network activity from a Linux process for which network activity is rare and unusual. Here are some possible avenues of investigation:
- Consider the IP addresses and ports. Are these used by normal but infrequent network workflows? Are they expected or unexpected?
- If the destination IP address is remote or external, does it associate with an expected domain, organization or geography? Note: avoid interacting directly with suspected malicious IP addresses.
- Consider the user as identified by the username field. Is this network activity part of an expected workflow for the user who ran the program?
- Examine the history of execution. If this process only manifested recently, it might be part of a new software package. If it has a consistent cadence (for example if it runs monthly or quarterly), it might be part of a monthly or quarterly business or maintenance process.
- Examine the process arguments, title and working directory. These may provide indications as to the source of the program or the nature of the tasks it is performing."""
