About
What is this?
A repo containing some of my privately developed Yara rules.
Why?
To contribute to the community.
Can I use these rules?
Of course! That's why I created this repo.
You can use them in your detection systems. For example, CAPE sandbox, MalwareBazaar and VirusTotal use these rules.
All rules are TLP:White, so you can use and distribute them freely. Please retain the meta.
Minimum Yara version needed?
v3.3.0 is minimally needed, as some rules may require a specific module. Note that it's recommended to always use the latest Yara version as found here.
Feedback?
If you spot an issue or improvement with one of the rules, feel free to submit a PR!
Help! A generic rule is hitting my software!
If one of the rules in the generic rules section hits on your software: this is not a false positive. It is simply an objective fact that, for example, your software has been compiled or wrapped using AutoIT. It equally does not mean your software is malicious.
