T1653: Power Settingss

Adversaries may impair a system's ability to hibernate, reboot, or shut down to extend access to infected machines. When a computer enters a dormant state, some or all software and hardware may cease to operate which can disrupt malicious activity.

Adversaries may abuse utilities and configuration settings to maintain access by preventing machines from entering a state, such as standby, that can terminate malicious activity.
