+id: b77914b8-9e91-46ab-8f52-342a2848c59e
+version: 1.0.0
+description: |
+  Detects direct access to raw disk devices or volumes by user-mode processes,
+  bypassing the Windows filesystem layer. Attackers abuse raw disk handles to
+  read partition structures, extract volume data, or wipe MBR/VBR without
+  triggering standard file-level auditing, making it a common primitive in
+  data destruction malware, ransomware, pre-encryption volume enumeration,
+  and stealthy credential harvesting tools that read NTFS structures directly.
