10+ Detects execution of the Microsoft "devtunnel" CLI to create or host a Dev Tunnel,
11+ which exposes a local port or endpoint to the internet through Microsoft infrastructure
12+ (*.devtunnels.ms). Adversaries abuse Dev Tunnels for command-and-control, reverse shells
13+ and persistent remote access that blends in with trusted Microsoft domains. This rule
14+ complements existing network and DNS detections by catching the on-host tunnel setup.
