This guide details a threat hunting technique for detecting persistence mechanisms utilizing Windows Registry Run keys (T1547.001). By analyzing Sysmon Event ID 13 logs, it identifies suspicious auto-start entries pointing to temporary directories, encoded PowerShell commands, or abused LOLBins. Essential for SOC analysts and security engineers investigating incidents and developing robust detection rules.

This skill guides threat hunters in detecting MITRE ATT&CK T1098 account manipulation techniques. It focuses on analyzing Windows Security Event Logs (like 4738, 4728) to uncover shadow administration creation, suspicious group membership changes, SID history injection, and unauthorized credential modifications, crucial for incident response and building robust detection rules.

Monitors Windows process creation events to flag Living Off The Land Binary abuse by matching Event ID 4688/Sysmon 1 logs against LOLBAS database entries, supporting threat hunting and SIEM rule creation for fileless attacks.

This methodology provides SOC teams with an adversary-centric framework to evaluate security detection capabilities against the MITRE ATT&CK framework. By systematically mapping existing SIEM rules and data sources, users can identify critical detection gaps, prioritize rule development efforts, and measure the overall maturity of their security operations center (SOC) defenses over time.

This skill guides the implementation of Gitleaks for robust secret scanning across development lifecycles. It covers setting up pre-commit hooks to prevent secrets from being committed, integrating scanning into CI/CD pipelines (like GitHub Actions), and writing custom regex rules to detect and remediate hardcoded credentials (API keys, passwords, tokens) in Git history, ensuring adherence to secure SDLC practices.

Semgrep is an open-source static analysis tool used to find bugs, detect vulnerabilities, and enforce coding standards. This guide covers writing custom rules in YAML format to implement advanced SAST checks, such as detecting SQL injection, hardcoded secrets, or tracking tainted user input. It is essential for building robust DevSecOps pipelines and ensuring compliance.

This guide details how to implement advanced SIEM correlation rules to detect sophisticated Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs). By chaining multiple event types—including Windows authentication events, process execution telemetry, and network connection logs—across hosts, users can surface complex attack sequences that are invisible to single-event detections. It utilizes Splunk SPL and Sigma rule formats for robust security posture enhancement.

This skill guides the process of designing, implementing, and validating advanced security detection use cases for Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platforms like Splunk, Elastic, and Microsoft Sentinel. It focuses on mapping organizational threat profiles to the MITRE ATT&CK framework to build formal, high-fidelity detection rules, thereby strengthening Security Operations Center (SOC) coverage and reducing blind spots.

A comprehensive guide to configuring ModSecurity WAF with OWASP Core Rule Set (CRS). It covers establishing robust web application logging, tuning rules to minimize false positives, and implementing custom SecRules for advanced threat detection. Essential for security audits, compliance, and architectural hardening.

This skill guides developers through integrating Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools like CodeQL and Semgrep into GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines. It covers automating code scanning on pull requests and pushes, tuning rules to reduce false positives, uploading SARIF results, and establishing quality gates to prevent vulnerable code from merging into production.

This skill maps observed adversary behaviors, security alerts, and detection rules to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. It is essential for quantifying detection coverage, building ATT&CK heatmaps, tagging SIEM alerts, and prioritizing security controls based on known threat actor playbooks. Use it for comprehensive gap analysis and risk reporting.

This comprehensive skill guides the process of rapid malware triage and classification using YARA rules. It covers advanced techniques for writing detection rules based on unique strings, specific byte sequences, and structural PE characteristics. It is essential for security analysts building automated detection pipelines, scanning endpoints, or performing large-scale threat hunting across an enterprise environment.
