Which of the following is NOT a rule type for IOA on Windows?

In the context of CrowdStrike's Indicators of Attack (IOA) for Windows, understanding the different rule types is crucial for effectively monitoring and responding to potential threats. The rule types typically employed include Process Creation, Network Connection, and Domain Name. These categories help identify suspicious activities based on specific behaviors indicative of an attack.

Process Creation rules monitor the creation of processes, which can reveal unauthorized or malicious software execution. Network Connection rules track activity related to network communications, identifying connections to potentially harmful external resources. Domain Name rules analyze the resolution of domain names to detect attempts to connect to malicious domains.

File Modification, while a relevant activity in the overall security ecosystem, is not classified as an IOA rule type within CrowdStrike's framework for Windows. The focus of IOA is much more aligned with behavioral patterns that can indicate an attack, rather than modifications to files themselves. Therefore, recognizing that File Modification is not included in the core IOA rule types is essential for understanding how to apply oversight and defenses effectively in a Windows environment.
