Sınıf: Email-Worm
Email-Worms e-posta yoluyla yayıldı. Solucan, kendisinin bir kopyasını bir e-posta mesajının eki olarak veya bir ağ kaynağındaki dosyasına bir bağlantı olarak gönderir (örn., Ele geçirilmiş bir web sitesindeki veya hacker'ın sahip olduğu bir web sitesinde virüslü bir dosyanın URL'si). İlk durumda, virüslü eklenti açıldığında (başlatıldığında) solucan kodu devreye girer. İkinci durumda, virüs bulaşan dosyaya bağlantı açıldığında kod etkinleştirilir. Her iki durumda da, sonuç aynıdır: solucan kodu etkinleştirildi. Email-Worms, virüslü e-posta göndermek için bir dizi yöntem kullanır. En yaygın olanları şunlardır: Windows MAPI işlevlerini kullanarak MS Outlook hizmetlerini kullanarak solucan koduna yerleşik e-posta dizini kullanarak bir SMTP sunucusuna doğrudan bağlantı kullanarak. E-posta solucanları, virüslü e-postaların gönderileceği e-posta adreslerini bulmak için bir dizi farklı kaynak kullanır: MS Outlook'taki adres defteri, sabit sürücüde saklanan bir WAB adres veritabanı .txt dosyaları: solucan, metin dosyalarındaki hangi dizeleri belirleyebilir e-posta adreslerini gelen kutunuzda e-postalar (bazı e-posta-solucanlar gelen kutucukta bulunan e-postalara bile "cevap verir") Birçok e-posta solucanı, yukarıda listelenen kaynaklardan daha fazlasını kullanır. Web tabanlı e-posta hizmetleriyle ilişkili adres defterleri gibi başka e-posta adresleri kaynakları da vardır.Platform: Win32
Win32, 32-bit uygulamaların yürütülmesini destekleyen Windows NT tabanlı işletim sistemlerinde (Windows XP, Windows 7, vb.) Bir API'dir. Dünyanın en yaygın programlama platformlarından biri.Aile: Email-Worm.Win32.Zhelatin

Persistence
The adversary is trying to maintain their foothold.
Persistence consists of techniques that adversaries use to keep access to systems across restarts, changed credentials, and other interruptions that could cut off their access. Techniques used for persistence include any access, action, or configuration changes that let them maintain their foothold on systems, such as replacing or hijacking legitimate code or adding startup code.

Create or Modify System Process: Windows Service
Adversaries may create or modify Windows services to repeatedly execute malicious payloads as part of persistence. When Windows boots up, it starts programs or applications called services that perform background system functions.(Citation: TechNet Services) Windows service configuration information, including the file path to the service's executable or recovery programs/commands, is stored in the Windows Registry.
Adversaries may install a new service or modify an existing service to execute at startup in order to persist on a system. Service configurations can be set or modified using system utilities (such as sc.exe), by directly modifying the Registry, or by interacting directly with the Windows API.
Adversaries may also use services to install and execute malicious drivers. For example, after dropping a driver file (ex: `.sys`) to disk, the payload can be loaded and registered via Native API functions such as `CreateServiceW()` (or manually via functions such as `ZwLoadDriver()` and `ZwSetValueKey()`), by creating the required service Registry values (i.e. Modify Registry), or by using command-line utilities such as `PnPUtil.exe`.(Citation: Symantec W.32 Stuxnet Dossier)(Citation: Crowdstrike DriveSlayer February 2022)(Citation: Unit42 AcidBox June 2020) Adversaries may leverage these drivers as Rootkits to hide the presence of malicious activity on a system. Adversaries may also load a signed yet vulnerable driver onto a compromised machine (known as "Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver" (BYOVD)) as part of Exploitation for Privilege Escalation.(Citation: ESET InvisiMole June 2020)(Citation: Unit42 AcidBox June 2020)
Services may be created with administrator privileges but are executed under SYSTEM privileges, so an adversary may also use a service to escalate privileges. Adversaries may also directly start services through Service Execution. To make detection analysis more challenging, malicious services may also incorporate Masquerade Task or Service (ex: using a service and/or payload name related to a legitimate OS or benign software component).

Privilege Escalation
The adversary is trying to gain higher-level permissions.
Privilege Escalation consists of techniques that adversaries use to gain higher-level permissions on a system or network. Adversaries can often enter and explore a network with unprivileged access but require elevated permissions to follow through on their objectives. Common approaches are to take advantage of system weaknesses, misconfigurations, and vulnerabilities. Examples of elevated access include:
* SYSTEM/root level
* local administrator
* user account with admin-like access
* user accounts with access to specific system or perform specific function
These techniques often overlap with Persistence techniques, as OS features that let an adversary persist can execute in an elevated context.
