Change the Detection Engine with Sigma Rules #181

Description

Replace the current regex-based detection engine in Krawl with a Sigma Rules based detection system.

Instead of relying only on static regular expressions, Sigma Rules would provide a more structured, scalable, and community-driven way to detect malicious behavior, attack patterns, and suspicious activity.

Proposed Changes

  • Remove or deprecate the current regex-only detection logic.
  • Integrate a Python Sigma Rules engine/library for rule parsing and matching (pySigma).
  • Support loading custom Sigma rule files from a dedicated rules directory.
  • Trigger alerts when logs or requests match Sigma detections.
  • Allow hot-reloading or dynamic updates of rules without restarting Krawl.
