/3 Digging into this a bit - what actually happened in the LNK?
1. Use CommandArgs flag
2. Slight obfuscation ( ` char) to evade sigs
3. Calling PowerShell to trigger Start-BitsTransfer
4. EXE delivered, renamed, and executed from Public folder
Context matters. Apply your strings and logic within YARA modules for maximum effect. Here's an example of this for hunting those pesky evasion GUIDs from Packer-as-a-Service inside of the ".data" section of a PE.
Happy hunting!
