Detection engineering reference: the detection lifecycle and quality metrics, Sigma rule syntax and modifiers, YARA rule writing, a detection-as-code CI pipeline, and essential Windows detections. Use when writing, testing, or maintaining detection rules.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Detection Engineering

> Sigma rule syntax, YARA rule writing, detection-as-code workflows, and the methodology of building reliable, maintainable detection rules.

## Knowledge Base

### The Detection Engineering Lifecycle

```
Threat Intelligence --> Technique Analysis --> Rule Writing --> Testing
         |                                                        |
         v                                                        v
    ATT&CK Mapping --> Data Source Validation --> Deployment --> Tuning
                                                                  |
                                                                  v
                                                  Monitoring --> Retirement
```

Detection rules are not write-once artifacts. They require ongoing tuning, testing, and retirement as adversary behavior evolves and environments change.

### Detection Quality Metrics

| Metric | Definition | Target |
|--------|-----------|--------|
| True Positive Rate | Alerts that are actual threats | > 80% for high-fidelity rules |
| False Positive Rate | Alerts that are benign | < 20% (ideally < 5%) |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add hermeticormus/libresecops-claude-code/detection-engineering@sha256:8bb0a3803a829e5a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.71a2663, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
