+Name: Wevtutil.exe
+Description: Wevtutil.exe is a built-in Windows utility for managing event logs. It allows querying, exporting, clearing, and configuring event logs, making it a versatile tool for system administrators. However, its capabilities can be abused by attackers to evade detection by selectively clearing or manipulating logs.
