Windows Agent attributes and helpers

This documentation describes Windows attributes and helpers of the Datadog’s Security Language (SECL).

Rules using Windows attributes and helpers must include an OS rule filter field as follows.

id: [...]
expression: [...]
filters:
  - os == "windows"

Triggers

Triggers are events that correspond to types of activity seen by the system. The currently supported set of triggers is:

Variables

SECL variables are predefined variables that can be used as values or as part of values.

For example, rule using a process.pid variable looks like this:

open.file.path == "/proc/${process.pid}/maps"

List of the available variables:
