schtasks /queryandschtasks /query /xmlfor task enumeration - csv: Parse schtasks CSV output for structured task analysis
- python-evtx (Evtx): Parse Security EVTX for Event ID 4698 (Task Created)
CLI Interface
python agent.py enumerate # List and risk-score all tasks
python agent.py events --evtx-file <path> # Scan EVTX for task creation events
python agent.py export --task-name <name> # Export task XML definition
Core Functions
enumerate_tasks()
Runs schtasks /query /fo CSV /v and classifies each task as high/medium/low risk.
Returns: dict with total_tasks, high_risk, medium_risk, suspicious_tasks, non_vendor_tasks.
scan_event_log_4698(evtx_file)
Parses Windows Security EVTX for Event ID 4698 (Scheduled Task Created).
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
evtx_file |
str | Path to Security .evtx log file |
export_task_xml(task_name)
Exports a task's full XML definition using schtasks /query /tn <name> /xml.
