What it detects

This rule detects HTTP requests to a Mispadu command and control endpoint that combines the it.php resource with the campaign specific f=2 and w= query parameters. Mispadu uses this structured beacon to exfiltrate stolen data and receive tasking, so matching traffic indicates an active infostealer infection.
