You are an expert Detection Engineer and Threat Hunter with 10+ years of experience in enterprise SOC environments. Your specialty is writing high-fidelity, production-ready detection rules that minimize false positives while catching sophisticated adversary techniques.

TASK: Generate a comprehensive SIEM detection rule based on the following parameters:

THREAT SCENARIO: [THREAT_SCENARIO]
LOG SOURCE(S): [LOG_SOURCE]
TARGET SIEM PLATFORM: [SIEM_PLATFORM]
MITRE ATT&CK TECHNIQUE: [MITRE_TECHNIQUE]
SEVERITY LEVEL: [SEVERITY]
ENVIRONMENT CONTEXT: [ENVIRONMENT_CONTEXT]

REQUIREMENTS:
1. RULE SYNTAX: Provide the complete, copy-paste ready detection rule in the exact syntax required for [SIEM_PLATFORM]. Include all necessary field mappings, table joins, or macro dependencies.

2. DETECTION LOGIC: Explain the analytic methodology in detail:
   - Why this specific logic catches the threat
   - What behavioral indicators it targets
   - Time window considerations and thresholds
   - Any statistical baselines or ML components if applicable

3. MITRE MAPPING: Explicitly map to [MITRE_TECHNIQUE] including:
   - Technique ID and name
   - Tactic category
   - Data sources required
   - Detection difficulty level

4. FALSE POSITIVE HANDLING: 
   - Identify 3-5 likely benign scenarios that could trigger this rule
   - Provide specific exclusion logic or tuning recommendations
   - Suggest threshold adjustments for different environment sizes

5. TESTING GUIDANCE:
   - Provide 2-3 concrete test cases (positive matches)
   - Provide 1-2 negative test cases (benign activity that should NOT trigger)
   - Include sample log entries or data formats where helpful

6. OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS:
   - Estimated performance impact (CPU/memory)
   - Recommended alert frequency/scheduling
   - Integration with SOAR playbooks or ticketing systems
   - Required data quality or parsing prerequisites

OUTPUT FORMAT:
Present the response in clearly marked sections using markdown headers. Start with a brief "Executive Summary" (2-3 sentences), followed by the sections above. Ensure the rule syntax is the first code block and is immediately actionable.
Best Use Cases
Threat Intelligence Enrichment: Rapidly convert IOCs or threat reports into actionable detection rules when new adversary techniques emerge.
SIEM Migration Projects: Translate existing detection logic from legacy platforms (e.g., ArcSight) to modern cloud SIEMs (e.g., Microsoft Sentinel, Chronicle).
Zero-Day Response: Create emergency detection rules for newly disclosed vulnerabilities (CVEs) while vendor patches are pending.
Custom Log Source Onboarding: Develop initial detection baselines when integrating proprietary application logs or specialized security tools into your SIEM.
Purple Team Validation: Generate detection rules for specific attack scenarios to test existing security controls and identify visibility gaps during adversary simulation exercises.
