ATT&CK analytic guidance
DET0350 Detecting Downgrade Attacks
AN0995 Analytic 0995
Detection of processes launching downgraded PowerShell versions (e.g., v2) or other legacy binaries that lack logging or security features. Correlates command-line arguments, process metadata, and version fields. Monitors registry changes to Defender or HVCI keys that could indicate intentional downgrades.
AN0996 Analytic 0996
Monitors execution of older or legacy interpreters (e.g., python2, bash with restricted history logging), downgrade of TLS/SSL configurations, or forced fallback to unencrypted protocols. Detects suspicious reconfiguration of kernel modules or boot loaders to reduce integrity controls.
AN0997 Analytic 0997
Detection of execution of legacy scripting runtimes (e.g., older versions of Python, Bash, or PowerShell Core) lacking auditing. Monitoring for changes to EFI or system boot files indicative of downgrade-based persistence or bypass of integrity features.
