Describe the behaviour you want to detect. SARA writes a starting Sigma rule with MITRE tags, false-positive guidance, and detection-engineering context. Anonymous, no account, best-effort generic detection.

Sigma is the open, vendor-neutral format for log-based detections. One rule, written once, converts to Splunk SPL, Elastic ES|QL, KQL for Microsoft Sentinel, Sumo, Chronicle, QRadar, and more. Detection engineers love it for the same reason ATT&CK is the lingua franca for tactics — Sigma is the lingua franca for the queries that detect them.
GuideHow to use this tool
Describe the behaviour you want to detect in plain English. Be specific — "PowerShell encoded command spawned by an Office process" wins over "PowerShell abuse".
SARA writes a starting Sigma rule with the right logsource, fields, MITRE ATT&CK tags, and false-positive guidance.
Copy the YAML or convert to your target backend. Then tune the rule for your environment — the output is a starting point, not a tested artifact.
When to useWhen is the Sigma generator the right move?
Closing a coverage gap fast
You've got a fresh write-up of a TTP and need a starting detection in your stack today. Generate, tune, ship.
Onboarding a junior detection engineer
Pair-program with SARA: the generator produces the skeleton, the engineer learns by tuning, the team commits the result.
Translating between backends
You have a rule in one query language; describe it in English and get the Sigma version + conversions to every other backend.
Sanity-checking a hypothesis
Sketch a detection idea in 30 seconds before investing in a full DE sprint.
