Exfiltrating Artifacts via Kubernetes Control Plane

Detect the copying of artifacts from a container's file system using the Kubernetes control plane (kubectl cp). This rule can identify potential exfiltration of application secrets from containers' file systems, potentially revealing the outcomes of unauthorized access and control plane misuse via stolen identities (such as stolen credentials like Kubernetes serviceaccount tokens). Can be customized by the adopter to only monitor specific artifact paths, containers, or namespaces as needed.

Command Line Usage of Archiving Software

Before [exfiltrating data](https://attack.mitre.org/tactics/TA0010) that an adversary has [collected](https://attack.mitre.org/tactics/TA0009), it is very likely that a [compressed archive](https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1560) will be created, so that transfer times are minimized and fewer files are transmitted. There is variety between the tools used to compress data, but the command line usage and context of archiving tools, such as ZIP, RAR, and 7ZIP, should be monitored. In addition t

SMB Write Request

As described in [CAR-2013-01-003](../CAR-2013-01-003), SMB provides a means of remotely managing a file system. Adversaries often use SMB to move laterally to a host. SMB is commonly used to upload files. It may be used for staging in [Exfiltration](https://attack.mitre.org/tactics/TA0010) or as a [Lateral Movement](https://attack.mitre.org/tactics/TA0008) technique. Unlike SMB Reads, SMB Write requests typically require an additional level of access, resulting in less activity. Focusing on SMB
