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 execution of WMIC in order to get a list of firewall, antivirus and antispywware products.
Adversaries often enumerate security products installed on a system to identify security controls and potential ways to evade detection or disable protection mechanisms.
This information helps them plan their next attack steps and choose appropriate techniques to bypass security measures.
