What it detects

This rule detects outbound web requests to the BumbleBee command-and-control URI paths such as get_load, gate and gates. These fixed endpoint names are used by the loader to fetch tasks and payloads. Matching this beacon pattern surfaces infected hosts communicating with attacker infrastructure for tasking and payload delivery.
