DET0446 Credential Access via /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow Parsing

AN1234 Analytic 1234

Adversaries attempt to read sensitive files such as /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow for credential dumping. This may involve access to the files directly via command-line utilities (e.g., cat, less), creation of backup copies, or parsing through post-exploitation frameworks. Multi-event correlation includes elevated process execution, file access/read on sensitive paths, and anomalous read behaviors tied to non-root or unusual users.
