It can be challenging to detect ransomware activity using the existing sysmon configuration. Rather than look for excessive numbers of file writes, the most common ransomware artifacts, including file extensions and ransomware notes, have been included in the file creation stanza.

Hi @sduff, this is amazing work and I want to find a way to use it. Just for my stubborn philosophical reasons I want to keep the file created area totally generic by default, but if you want to host this in your own GitHub repo I can link to it?

Yes, I'm happy to maintain a separate repo for ransomware specifics, and more than happy for you to link to it. I'll update my README.md to make it clear, feel free to close out this PR
