What SIEM Query Builder does
SIEM Query Builder is a web-based tool that generates detection queries for three major Security Information and Event Management platforms: Splunk SPL, Elastic KQL, and Microsoft Sentinel. Users can input their own query logic or choose from specialized presets covering authentication events, network activity, malware indicators, and threat hunting scenarios mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. The output provides ready-to-use query syntax tailored to each platform, eliminating the need to memorize platform-specific command structures. The tool is designed to accelerate the creation of security detection rules and simplify the transition between different SIEM environments. While the core functionality focuses on query generation, the inclusion of MITRE ATT&CK mappings in the presets adds a layer of threat intelligence context that general query generators typically lack. The interface appears streamlined for rapid query creation, though specific details about the editor's features are limited by the unavailable live page. Overall, it serves as a practical utility for security analysts who need to produce functional queries across multiple SIEM platforms without starting from scratch each time.
