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.

status: test
description: |
    Detects usage of the "cipher" built-in utility in order to overwrite deleted data from disk.
    Adversaries may destroy data and files on specific systems or in large numbers on a network to interrupt availability to systems, services, and network resources.
    Data destruction is likely to render stored data irrecoverable by forensic techniques through overwriting files or data on local and remote drives
