Hunt Hypothesis

The hypothesis is that an adversary is using the Naverisk tool, a Remote Management and Monitoring tool, to establish persistence or command and control channels within the network. SOC teams should proactively hunt for this behavior in Azure Sentinel to detect and mitigate potential adversary exploitation of legitimate RMM tools for malicious purposes.
