ATT&CK analytic guidance

DET0371 Detection Strategy for Debugger Evasion (T1622)

AN1045 Analytic 1045

Monitor for suspicious use of Windows API calls such as IsDebuggerPresent() and NtQueryInformationProcess(), or processes manually checking the BeingDebugged flag in the Process Environment Block (PEB). Detect sequences of OutputDebugStringW() calls in short intervals that may indicate debugger flooding attempts.

AN1046 Analytic 1046

Monitor access to /proc/self/status where TracerPID field is queried, as this is a common technique for debugger detection. Detect processes that attempt to trigger exceptions intentionally and monitor whether exception handling indicates presence of a debugger.

AN1047 Analytic 1047

Detect suspicious calls to sysctl or ptrace API used to determine if a process is being debugged. Monitor for processes that flood OutputDebugString equivalents or generate abnormal exceptions to evade analysis.

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.

Exact source tags are not semantic relevance verdicts. Review actual rule conditions and observation points; imported rules are not backend-compiled or live-validated.

Pinned research references. No browser attack runner or production-validated detector is asserted. Imported procedures remain unvalidated; any bounded lab evidence has its own scope. ATT&CK / Atomic provenance · Detection provenance.
