I'd like to suggest you take a look at the list of program launch points
catalogued by the Silent Runners team at
http://www.silentrunners.org/sr_launchpoints.html. Detecting programs
that hook themselves into windows startup routines could be very useful.

Thanks,
Rick McClinton

Subject: [ossec-list] Registry monitoring on ossec (input request)
Importance: Low


Hello everyone,

I just completed adding support for monitoring the Windows registry on
ossec. It seems to be fairly stable right now and hopefully a beta
version
will be available soon (lots of tests will be required).

The configuration will have the following options available: (inside
the syscheck area):

<windows_registry>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software,
HKEY_USERS\Example</windows_registry>

<registry_ignore>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft<registry_ignore>

Where the first option is a list (comma separated) of registry entries
to monitor and
the second is a list of entries to ignore.

A question now for you guys (Windows users):

-Which registry entries should we monitor by default?

I was thinking on everything at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SAM.

Is there anything else worth checking too? Please let me know your
comments...

*btw, next version (1.0) is comming soon...

Thanks,
