Sigma Rules

Hand-authored Sigma rules for TTPs the corpus shows to be exploited-and-undetected — where live signal is high and community coverage is zero. Quality over volume; base Sigma only (your pipeline converts to its own backend).

Authoring queue — the editorial calendar

Every row is a technique with live corpus signal and zero coverage anywhere, ranked by a deterministic score (active malware family + KEV CVEs + citing OSINT + exploit probability). This is signal × coverage → gap made concrete: what gets authored next, in order, computed daily — not asserted.

Subscription contract

Poll /sigma/rules.lock.json: each rule carries a content sha256, a monotonic version, and a change_type. A bumped version means the rule changed; change_type: logic means the detection or logsource changed — re-test before deploying (a metadata-only edit does not). Diff two lock files for an exact, machine-readable list of what churned — the mechanism SigmaHQ's own release notes lack. Bulk-pull all production rules with /sigma/rules.tar.gz; watch /sigma/sigma-feed.xml for new and logic-changed rules. Rule URLs and UUIDs are stable for life; a retired rule is recorded in CHANGELOG.md, never silently dropped.

Status ladder: experimentalteststable (Sigma standard). Rules on the authoring queue are draft — scaffolds with a TODO detection block, excluded from the default feed and the tarball.
