Masquerading can allow an adversary to evade defenses and better blend in with the environment. One way it occurs is
when the name or location of a file is manipulated as a means of tricking a user into executing what they think is a
benign file type but is actually executable code.

If enabling an EQL rule on a non-elastic-agent index (such as beats) for versions <8.2,
events will not define `event.ingested` and default fallback for EQL rules was not added until version 8.2.
Hence for this rule to work effectively, users will need to add a custom ingest pipeline to populate
`event.ingested` to @timestamp.
For more details on adding a custom ingest pipeline refer - https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/fleet/current/data-streams-pipeline-tutorial.html
