Phoenix Studio
Convert indexed Sigma rules into analyst-ready detections.
This studio is built around Phoenix's own rule corpus, not a blank editor. Search by title or rule id, choose a live sigma-cli backend, then reveal pipelines only when you actually need them.

description: |
Detects the presence of a file that is decrypted backdoor binary dropped by the Kapeka Dropper, which disguises itself as a hidden file under a folder named "Microsoft" within "CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA" or "CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA", depending on the process privileges.
The file, typically 5-6 characters long with a random combination of consonants and vowels followed by a ".wll" extension to pose as a legitimate file to evade detection.
