I do not know if a standard exists for the OWASP rule configuration, but I 
would like to submit the following:

I Currently use a SIEM system based on OSSIM.  There is a plugin module for 
modsecurity.  Since the processing of the mod security error logs can be sent 
to a SIEM system via apache error log and thus syslog, I am able to retrieve 
the 403 error messages.

While setting up regex to process the error log data for mod security, I've 
noticed that I've created 3 different regex rules for processing.

I would like to suggest a possible standard in log reporting to minimize the 
number of regex rules needed so that any new rules that are created will 
automatically fall into a regex standard for processing into as few rules as 
possible.  This will help to insure that all rules, when triggered and captured 
by a logging system should fall into a pre-defined set of rules to insure 
capture and data normalization into hopefully any SIEM system.
