Suspicious Removal of Windows Credential Guard Related Registry Value - Registry (via registry_delete)
This rule detects attempts to disable Windows Credential Guard by deleting registry values. Credential Guard uses virtualization-based security to isolate secrets so that only privileged system software can access them. Adversaries may disable Credential Guard to gain access to sensitive credentials stored in the system, such as NTLM hashes and Kerberos tickets, that can be used for lateral movement and privilege escalation.
