Potentially Suspicious Self Extraction Directive File Created
Detects the creation of a binary file with the ".sed" extension. The ".sed" extension stand for Self Extraction Directive files. These files are used by the "iexpress.exe" utility in order to create self extracting packages. Attackers were seen abusing this utility and creating PE files with embedded ".sed" entries. Usually ".sed" files are simple ini files and not PE binaries.
Suspicious Appended Extension
Detects file renames where the target filename uses an uncommon double extension. Could indicate potential ransomware activity renaming files and adding a custom extension to the encrypted files, such as ".jpg.crypted", ".docx.locky", etc.

PCRE.NET Package Image Load
Detects processes loading modules related to PCRE.NET package
Load Of RstrtMgr.DLL By A Suspicious Process
Detects the load of RstrtMgr DLL (Restart Manager) by a suspicious process. This library has been used during ransomware campaigns to kill processes that would prevent file encryption by locking them (e.g. Conti ransomware, Cactus ransomware). It has also recently been seen used by the BiBi wiper for Windows. It could also be used for anti-analysis purposes by shut downing specific processes.
