# Scheduled Tasks for Persistence: Mechanism and Detection

## Context
Post-execution, NoEscape ransomware establishes persistence through the creation of scheduled tasks. This report examines the methods used to maintain persistence and suggests detection strategies.

## Persistence Mechanism
- **Task Creation**: A new scheduled task is created to execute the ransomware binary at system startup or at regular intervals.
- **Task Obfuscation**: Task names are designed to mimic legitimate system processes to avoid detection.

## Detection and Response
- Monitor for anomalous scheduled tasks creation.
- Implement logging for task scheduler activities.
- Regularly audit scheduled tasks for unauthorized entries.
