Research direction

Start by reviewing the MITRE ATT&CK T1553/004 link and the referenced FireEye article, then investigate the `certmgr.exe`, `localMachine`, and `localMachineTrustedPublisher` references. The issue names no repository files, tests, or explicit acceptance criteria, so the intended rule and definition of done need clarification before implementation.
