### Investigating PowerShell Suspicious Discovery Related Windows API Functions
|
|
|
|
PowerShell is one of the main tools used by system administrators for automation, report routines, and other tasks.
|
|
|
|
Attackers can use PowerShell to interact with the Win32 API to bypass file based AntiVirus detections, using libraries
|
|
like PSReflect or Get-ProcAddress Cmdlet.
|
|
|
|
#### Possible investigation steps:
|
|
|
|
- Examine script content that triggered the detection.
|
|
- Investigate script execution chain (parent process tree).
|
|
- Inspect any file or network events from the suspicious powershell host process instance.
|
|
- If the action is suspicious for the user, check for any other activities done by the user in the last 48 hours.
|
|
|
|
### False Positive Analysis
|
|
|
|
- Verify whether the script content is malicious/harmful.
|
|
|
|
### Related Rules
|
|
|
|
- PowerShell PSReflect Script - 56f2e9b5-4803-4e44-a0a4-a52dc79d57fe
|
|
|
|
### Response and Remediation
|
|
|
|
- Immediate response should be taken to validate, investigate, and potentially contain the activity to prevent further
|
|
post-compromise behavior.

## Config
|
|
|
|
The 'PowerShell Script Block Logging' logging policy must be enabled.
|
|
Steps to implement the logging policy with with Advanced Audit Configuration:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Computer Configuration >
|
|
Administrative Templates >
|
|
Windows PowerShell >
|
|
Turn on PowerShell Script Block Logging (Enable)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Steps to implement the logging policy via registry:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
reg add "hklm\\SOFTWARE\\Policies\\Microsoft\\Windows\\PowerShell\\ScriptBlockLogging" /v EnableScriptBlockLogging /t REG_DWORD /d 1
|
|
```
