AMSI Byte Array Scanning

L0 Member

Does anybody have a solution similar to Defender for Endpoint for using AMSI programmatically to scan incoming files? Essentially, we have a requirement to scan incoming files that are scanned prior to being sent along to their next hop. This all occurs in memory and never actually writes to the disk.

Hello @JAEvans ,

 

Cortex XDR being execution based detection we do  collect AMSI content scan events and use it for detection purposes. You can use below example XQL query to fetch AMSI data.
preset = xdr_event_log
| filter lowercase(action_evtlog_description) contains "amsi"
| filter lowercase(action_evtlog_username) not contains "system"

 

If the  malware plants in the memory and then executes which in turn comes to the surface, then the agent will prevent that attack
