+This rule detects the execution of kubectl commands that are commonly used for configuration discovery in Kubernetes
+environments. It looks for process events where kubectl is executed with arguments that query configuration information,
+such as configmaps. In environments where kubectl is not expected to be used, this could indicate potential reconnaissance
+activity by an adversary.
