Dump LSASS via procdump

The following analytic detects the use of procdump.exe to dump the LSASS process, specifically looking for the -mm and -ma command-line arguments. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names, command-line executions, and parent processes. This activity is significant because dumping LSASS can expose sensitive credentials, posing a severe security risk. If confirmed malicious, an attacker could obtain credentials, escalate privileges, and move laterally within the network, leading to potential data breaches and further compromise of the environment.
