EDR Telemetry Project: Linux & Windows Defender Updates

Featured Image
The EDR Telemetry Project has been updated with new additions and fixes:

✅ HarfangLabs added to the Linux EDR table

✅ Fixed telemetry entries for LimaCharlie and Windows Defender

Beware of unverified “EDR bypass” lists circulating online—stick to data-backed research for reliable security insights.

You Should Know: Linux & Windows EDR Commands & Techniques

Linux EDR Monitoring & Analysis

1. Check Running Processes (Detect Suspicious Activity):

ps aux | grep -i "edr|endpoint|security"

2. Audit EDR Services:

systemctl list-units --type=service | grep -i "edr|defender|carbonblack|crowdstrike"

3. Inspect Kernel Modules (EDR Drivers):

lsmod | grep -i "security|detection"

4. Analyze Network Connections (EDR Beaconing):

sudo netstat -tulnp | grep -i "edr|labs|limacharlie"

Windows Defender Telemetry & Logs

1. Check Defender Status:

Get-MpComputerStatus

2. Export Defender Logs:

Get-WinEvent -LogName "Microsoft-Windows-Windows Defender/Operational" | Export-CSV Defender_Logs.csv

3. Disable Real-Time Monitoring (For Testing):

Set-MpPreference -DisableRealtimeMonitoring $true

4. List EDR-related Scheduled Tasks:

Get-ScheduledTask | Where-Object { $<em>.TaskName -like "Defender" -or $</em>.TaskName -like "EDR" }

Bypass Detection (For Research Only)

1. Unload EDR Kernel Module (Linux):

sudo rmmod <edr_module_name>

2. Disable Linux Auditd (Reduces Telemetry):

sudo systemctl stop auditd

3. Windows EDR Service Kill:

Stop-Service -Name "WinDefend" -Force

What Undercode Say

The EDR Telemetry Project provides critical insights into Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) capabilities across platforms. For Linux, HarfangLabs’ inclusion expands visibility into open-source EDR solutions. Meanwhile, Windows Defender updates ensure accurate telemetry for threat hunters.

Key Takeaways:

  • Always verify EDR bypass claims—many are unsubstantiated.
  • Use system commands to audit EDR deployments in enterprise environments.
  • Log analysis (Linux: journalctl, Windows: Get-WinEvent) is crucial for detecting EDR evasion.

For red teams, understanding EDR telemetry helps craft undetectable payloads. For blue teams, these commands assist in hardening defenses.

Expected Output:

  • A comprehensive EDR comparison table (Linux & Windows).
  • Verified bypass techniques (not just theoretical claims).
  • Enhanced logging for forensic investigations.

Prediction

As EDR solutions evolve, expect more Linux-focused attacks due to increased enterprise adoption. Open-source EDR tools like HarfangLabs will gain traction, requiring deeper telemetry analysis for detection gaps.
