What it detects

This rule detects DNS resolution of the Internet Computer canister fallback host the Cloudflare tunnel and the aquasecurtiy typosquat domain used as command-and-control by the TeamPCP implant embedded in the compromised Trivy v0.69.4 release. These hosts serve payloads and receive exfiltrated credentials so a lookup indicates an infected build or developer host beaconing out.
