Turning Behavior Into Detection
- Raw events are not conclusions. Convert them into scored heuristics and IOCs.
- Each suspicious behavior gets a weight; sum the weights; threshold the total to a verdict.
- Extract IOCs for sharing: file hashes, dropped file names, C2 domains/IPs, registry keys, mutexes.
- This is exactly the behavior scorer you build in Lab 4.
Key Takeaway
A good report ranks behaviors by confidence, not by how many events fired.
