Potential LSASS Memory Dump via PssCaptureSnapShotedit
Identifies suspicious access to a Local Security Authority Server Service (LSASS) handle via PssCaptureSnapShot where two successive process accesses are performed by the same process and target two different instances of LSASS. This may indicate an attempt to evade detection and dump LSASS memory for credential access.
