ATT&CK analytic guidance
DET0296 Detect Adversary-in-the-Middle via Network and Configuration Anomalies
AN0823 Analytic 0823
Detects suspicious DNS/ARP poisoning attempts, unauthorized modifications to registry/network configuration, or abnormal TLS downgrade activity. Correlates changes in system configuration with subsequent unusual network flows or authentication events.
AN0824 Analytic 0824
Detects unauthorized edits to /etc/hosts, /etc/resolv.conf, or suspicious ARP broadcasts. Correlates file modifications with subsequent unexpected network sessions or service creation.
AN0825 Analytic 0825
Detects unauthorized edits to system configuration profiles, unexpected certificate trust changes, or abnormal ARP/DNS patterns indicative of interception.
AN0826 Analytic 0826
Detects unauthorized firmware or configuration changes enabling adversary-in-the-middle positioning (e.g., route injection, DNS spoofing, SSL downgrade). Behavioral analytics focus on sudden changes to routing tables or image file integrity failures.

Threat actor context
These are explicit actor-to-technique associations in the existing Threat Matrix snapshot, not attribution of an event or proof that a detector identifies the actor. No tool-to-actor relationship is inferred.
Existing anomaly research
Pinned research references. No browser attack runner, live simulation result or validated detector is asserted. Source mappings and validation limits are preserved. ATT&CK / Atomic provenance · Detection provenance.
