Skill UI

Expert skill in designing and implementing comprehensive observability stacks for enterprise microservices. Covers advanced monitoring (Prometheus, Grafana), distributed tracing (Jaeger, OpenTelemetry), centralized logging (ELK, Splunk), and defining SLIs/SLOs. Ideal for ensuring high availability, mastering incident response, and performing reliability engineering on large-scale, distributed applications.

Automates deployment and configuration of ELK, Loki, or Splunk log aggregation platforms by gathering requirements, crafting secure scalable configs, and producing deployment code for observability needs.

This skill guides the creation of automated workflows for enriching raw Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) with multi-source threat intelligence context. It is designed for integration into SOAR platforms (e.g., Cortex XSOAR, Splunk SOAR) or Python pipelines. By automatically querying multiple sources like VirusTotal, AbuseIPDB, and MISP, it significantly reduces analyst mean time to triage (MTTT) and standardizes the resulting threat context and confidence scoring.

This skill provides a comprehensive workflow for building vendor-agnostic detection rules using the Sigma format. It empowers security operations center (SOC) engineers to translate raw threat intelligence and MITRE ATT&CK techniques into standardized, portable detection logic. The process guides users through rule validation and conversion into specific queries for major SIEM platforms, including Splunk, Elastic, and Microsoft Sentinel, ensuring robust detection coverage.

This skill facilitates the creation of real-time incident response dashboards across major SIEM platforms (Splunk, Elastic, Grafana). It provides SOC analysts and leadership with unified situational awareness by tracking affected systems, containment status, Indicators of Compromise (IOC) spread, and the entire incident response timeline, crucial for coordination and post-incident reporting.

This guide details the deployment and configuration of MISP (Malware Information Sharing Platform) using Docker. It demonstrates how to aggregate, correlate, and distribute threat intelligence from diverse sources like abuse.ch and AlienVault OTX. Learn automated feed synchronization, STIX/TAXII integration, and connecting the platform to SIEM and SOAR tools like Splunk and Elasticsearch for centralized IOC management.

This framework guides the systematic process of proactive threat hunting. It transforms raw threat intelligence and ATT&CK gap analyses into concrete, testable hypotheses. Users execute these hypotheses using industry-standard EDR/SIEM platforms (Splunk, CrowdStrike, Defender, etc.) to validate potential compromises, correlate activity, and document findings in a standardized report format.

A comprehensive guide to building automated Indicator of Compromise (IOC) enrichment pipelines within Splunk Enterprise Security. This process integrates multiple external threat feeds (STIX/TAXII, CSV, APIs) into normalized KV Store collections. By correlating these enriched threat indicators against live security events using advanced lookup searches, SOC teams can significantly reduce manual triage time and automatically identify potential security incidents.

A comprehensive guide and framework for detecting attacker lateral movement within enterprise networks. It details the use of network flow analysis (Zeek), authentication log review (Windows Event Logs, Kerberos), and dedicated SIEM correlation rules (Splunk, Elastic) to identify techniques like Pass-the-Hash and RDP hopping. Ideal for threat hunters and security engineers building detection pipelines.

This skill details the detection of Pass-the-Ticket (PtT) attacks, a critical credential theft technique. It instructs users on analyzing Windows Security Event IDs (4768, 4769, 4771) within SIEM platforms like Splunk or Elastic. Use cases include investigating security incidents, building advanced threat hunting queries, and validating SOC monitoring coverage for lateral movement attacks.

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.

This skill automates the entire phishing incident response lifecycle using the Splunk SOAR REST API. It processes reported emails, extracts indicators of compromise (IOCs) like URLs and IPs, creates incident containers, attaches artifacts, and triggers automated playbooks for deep analysis and reporting. It is essential for security operations teams needing robust, programmatic incident handling and compliance alignment.
