## What it is
A repository of detection rules (Snort, YARA, ClamAV, HXIOC) released by Mandiant/FireEye for countering red team tools and threats. Rules are split into production and supplemental categories depending on tuning requirements.

## Use cases
- detect red team tooling in my network
- yara rules for malware hunting
- snort signatures for threat detection
- ioc-based threat hunting rules
- clamav signatures for known attacker tools

## When to choose
- you need community-vetted detection signatures for red team tools
- you run Snort, YARA, or ClamAV and want ready-made rules
- you want hunting rules to supplement your threat detection

## When to avoid
- you need guaranteed zero false positives without tuning
- you require vendor support or SLAs
- you need automated deployment rather than raw rule files

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: maintenance
- function: security, vulnerability-scanning
- domain: security, penetration-testing
- platform: windows, cross-platform
- tags: yara-rules, snort-rules, clamav-signatures, threat-detection, red-team, ioc, hunting, linux, macos
