# `tags` fields also include information about the type of workload inspection (host and/or container), and Mitre Attack killchain phases and Mitre TTP code(s)

# This macro `never_true` is used as placeholder for tuning negative logical sub-expressions, for example
# - macro: allowed_ssh_hosts
#   condition: (never_true)
# can be used in a rules' expression with double negation `and not allowed_ssh_hosts` which effectively evaluates
# to true and does nothing, the perfect empty template for `logical` cases as opposed to list templates.
# When tuning the rule you can override the macro with something useful, e.g.
# - macro: allowed_ssh_hosts
#   condition: (evt.hostname contains xyz)
- macro: never_true
  condition: (evt.num=0)

# This macro `always_true` is the flip side of the macro `never_true` and currently is commented out as
# it is not used. You can use it as placeholder for a positive logical sub-expression tuning template
# macro, e.g. `and custom_procs`, where
# - macro: custom_procs
#   condition: (always_true)
# later you can customize, override the macros to something like
# - macro: custom_procs
#   condition: (proc.name in (custom1, custom2, custom3))
# - macro: always_true
#   condition: (evt.num>=0)

# In some cases, such as dropped system call events, information about

    An attempt to spawn a shell below a non-shell application. The non-shell applications that are monitored are 
    defined in the protected_shell_spawner macro, with protected_shell_spawning_binaries being the list you can 
    easily customize. For Java parent processes, please note that Java often has a custom process name. Therefore, 
    rely more on proc.exe to define Java applications. This rule can be noisier, as you can see in the exhaustive 
    existing tuning. However, given it is very behavior-driven and broad, it is universally relevant to catch 
    general Remote Code Execution (RCE). Allocate time to tune this rule for your use cases and reduce noise. 
    Tuning suggestions include looking at the duration of the parent process (proc.ppid.duration) to define your 
    long-running app processes. Checking for newer fields such as proc.vpgid.name and proc.vpgid.exe instead of the 
    direct parent process being a non-shell application could make the rule more robust.

    same process group, which, for example, is the case when subprocesses are spawned from a script. Consider this rule 
    as a great template rule to monitor interactive accesses to your systems more broadly. However, such a custom rule would be 
    unique to your environment. The rule "Terminal shell in container" that fires when using "kubectl exec" is more Kubernetes
