A Sysmon Event ID Breakdown – Updated to Include 29!!

A detection-engineering guide to Sysmon, this blog walks through event IDs (including recent additions 26–29 and 255), shows how to configure and tune telemetry with the sysmon-modular framework, and maps key events to MITRE ATT&CK. It provides practical examples (process creation, DLL load, remote thread, registry, DNS, file/delete/stream, WMI, pipes, tampering, and file-blocking), discusses noise management and exclusions/inclusions, and recommends iterative deployment and tuning for effective endpoint visibility.
