Analysis Modules

Analysis modules are used to filter collected data in a way that makes it easier to find known threats, suspicious behavior, and environmental anomalies. Additionally, the .csv files generated from the filtering can be consumed by another tool like Jupyter notebooks.

Adding New Analysis Modules

All analysis modules are automatically loaded from the windows\modules\analysis folder and ran offline against collected data sources based on matching module names. For example, all analysis modules that start with "analysis-tasks" will be ran against the "collect-tasks" data source. It's not very elegant, but it's functional and seems to make adding new modules easy as long as you name them correctly. :)

Analysis modules are broken into two types:

Analysis Type	Description	Path
Search	These are analysis modules that perform detection of artifacts associated with known bad behavior.	windows\modules\analysis\search
Stack	These are analysis modules that perform anomaly detection via stacking or frequency analysis	windows\modules\analysis\stack

By default, all analysis modules will be run. To run a subset of the analysis modules simply remove the modules you dont want to run.
