RawDisk is a legitimate commercial driver from the EldoS Corporation that is used for interacting with files, disks, and partitions. The driver allows for direct modification of data on a local computer's hard drive. In some cases, the tool can enact these raw disk modifications from user-mode processes, circumventing Windows operating system security features.[1][2]

Standing S0364
Reach is how much of ATT&CK this tool touches. Coverage is how well defended each thing it does is, as a median per technique rather than a total — a total would just restate the reach. Each figure is ranked against all 825 ATT&CK software entries only where that population actually spreads. Where most of the population shares one value, a percentile would rank the tie instead of the entity, so the raw value is shown and no rank is claimed.
Reach
12th percentile · 88% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more Enterprise techniques.
6th percentile · 94% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more tactics spanned.
61% of the population shares a single value across only 22 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
85% of the population shares a single value across only 8 distinct values, so a percentile here would rank the tie, not the entity.
Coverage
3rd percentile · 97% of 825 ATT&CK software entries have more detection rules per technique.
Detection coverage S0364
60 distinct rules cover the 3 techniques recorded for this tool. The 61 technique-to-rule mappings resolve to 60 distinct rules, because one rule can cover several techniques. 39 Splunk · 21 Sigma.
