Threat detection on the same data as your monitoring

Start from 3,665 SigmaHQ rules mapped to 170 MITRE ATT&CK techniques, test each rule in shadow mode before it can page anyone, and respond through 25 actions that run only after a person approves them.

  • 3,665 SigmaHQ rules

How it works

From the first event to an approved response

Detections, verdicts, cases and responses share one workspace and one ledger, so the trail from event to action stays intact.

  1. 01CollectCollectors send Linux process, file and network events, and logs from firewalls and other security tools.
  2. 02DetectInstall the SigmaHQ pack, write your own rules, or convert supported Splunk SPL and Sentinel KQL.
  3. 03TestA rule in test runs in shadow mode: alerts are recorded and nobody is paged.
  4. 04TriageTurn on the SOC triage agent and each firing alert gets a verdict, a confidence and a lane, citing evidence.
  5. 05RespondAgents and playbooks file proposals. A person approves each one, and containment needs an admin.
  6. 06RecordCases chain their evidence by hash, and every action lands on the SOC ledger.

Detection rules

Rules you can prove before they page anyone

Pack rules install disabled. Move each one to test, where it runs in shadow mode, and promote it once its backtest and shadow hits look right. A rule whose log source has no route to your data is saved disabled, with the reason.

  • Backtest any rule over the last 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days, with its exceptions applied
  • Keep rules in Git: a detection repository stays in sync, and every change is a version you can diff and roll back
  • Each SigmaHQ rule keeps its original YAML and author, under the Detection Rule License 1.1

Response

Agents propose. People approve.

Brain, the SOC agents and playbooks file proposals into one queue. Each action carries a blast tier that decides who may approve it, and its target is pinned when the proposal is filed.

  • Tiered approval

    Editors approve notifications, cases and indicator blocks. Containment, account changes and edge blocks need an admin.

  • Pinned targets

    A process is pinned by id, start time and program, a file by path and SHA-256. Changed targets are refused.

  • Your tools, your credentials

    Bind actions to CrowdStrike, Microsoft Defender, Okta, Entra ID, Cloudflare and more, or a signed webhook.

  • One verifiable ledger

    Every proposal, approval and action lands on a hash-chained ledger.

Investigations

Evidence that still holds up after the incident

Cases snapshot each alert, indicator and entity when you attach it, and chain every item with SHA-256. Drop, edit or reorder an item and the chain breaks from that point on.

  • When turned on, the SOC investigator opens one case per incident and pins a report that cites the attached evidence
  • Threat-intel indicators match events as they arrive, and a retro-hunt replays the last 7 days
  • Auto-close stays off until an admin turns it on, and then only for rules where analysts agree with the agent often enough

Response actions

What each response action reaches, and who approves it

All 25 actions run only after approval. Tracix runs some itself or through the collector on a host; the rest call a tool you bind with your own credential.

Any vendor action can instead post a signed webhook to your own automation. An approved action with no binding becomes a task for a person to mark done. MITRE ATT&CK® technique data: © The MITRE Corporation. ATT&CK® is reproduced and distributed with the permission of The MITRE Corporation.

FAQ

Questions security teams ask first

Where do the detection rules come from?
From SigmaHQ. The pack holds the 3,665 rules from one pinned SigmaHQ release that compile against Tracix's event schema, and each keeps its original YAML and author under the Detection Rule License 1.1. Technique mappings use MITRE ATT&CK®. © The MITRE Corporation. ATT&CK® is reproduced and distributed with the permission of The MITRE Corporation.
Will every rule work on my data?
Only where your data covers its log source. Linux process, file and network rules run on the collector's endpoint security events without any mapping, and other sources route through the Sigma log source mapping. A rule with no route is saved disabled, with the reason.
Can an agent contain a host without a person?
No. Agents and playbooks only file proposals. Containing a host, changing an account or blocking an address at the edge needs an admin's approval, and the target is pinned when the proposal is filed.
Does Tracix match software to known vulnerabilities?
Yes, through software inventory. Tracix matches the components the collector finds in running applications against OSV advisories, and the matches appear on each service and under Security findings, with KEV, EPSS and runtime evidence. It doesn't pull or scan container images or registries.

Install the rule pack and test it in shadow mode

Connect a collector, install the SigmaHQ pack, and backtest the rules you care about before any of them can page you.
