Summary of the Pull Request
Sysinternals now ships native ARM64 builds that use the
64asuffix (e.g.procexp64a.exe,Sysmon64a.exe,handle64a.exe,procdump64a.exe). The existing rules only matched the x86/x64 names, leaving a blind spot on ARM64 Windows hosts. This PR adds the corresponding*64a.exevalue next to every existing*64.exeentry across the affected rules. Detection-equivalent change only — no logic, condition or field changes.Changelog
