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.

title: Suspicious ArcSOC.exe Child Process
id: 8e95e73e-ba02-4a87-b4d7-0929b8053038
status: experimental
description: |
Detects script interpreters, command-line tools, and similar suspicious child processes of ArcSOC.exe.
ArcSOC.exe is the process name which hosts ArcGIS Server REST services. If an attacker compromises an ArcGIS
Server system and uploads a malicious Server Object Extension (SOE), they can send crafted requests to the corresponding
service endpoint and remotely execute code from the ArcSOC.exe process.
