Abstract

Living off the Land (LotL) is a well-known method in which attackers use pre-existing tools distributed with the operating system to perform their attack/lateral movement. LotL enables them to blend in along side sysadmin operations, thus making it particularly difficult to spot this type of activity. Our work is centered on detecting LotL via Machine Learning and Feature Engineering while keeping the number of False Positives to a minimum. The work described here is implemented in an open-source tool that is provided under the Apache 2.0 License, along side pre-trained models.
