This guide details implementing robust, multi-layered security for public-facing API Gateway endpoints using AWS WAF. Key features include configuring managed rule groups for OWASP Top 10 protection, setting up granular rate limiting to prevent abuse, implementing bot mitigation, and performing IP reputation filtering. Essential for maintaining API integrity and availability.

This guide provides a deep dive into hardening AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) configurations. It teaches advanced security practices, including enforcing the principle of least privilege, defining granular policy scopes, implementing permission boundaries, and leveraging Access Analyzer to ensure continuous compliance and minimize the blast radius of security breaches.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide for deploying Microsoft Defender for Cloud across Azure, multi-cloud, and hybrid environments. It covers activating specific Defender plans for various workloads (servers, containers, storage), optimizing the Secure Score, establishing environment connectors for AWS/GCP, and implementing advanced controls like Just-In-Time (JIT) access for robust, centralized cloud workload protection.

This comprehensive guide outlines the end-to-end security lifecycle for Kubernetes applications deployed via Helm. It covers critical topics such as chart provenance verification (GPG signing), template scanning (using tools like kubesec and checkov), enforcing strict security contexts, managing secrets securely (ExternalSecrets), and defining robust RBAC rules for CI/CD pipelines.

This skill provides comprehensive guidance on hardening and securing critical process historian servers (e.g., OSIsoft PI, Honeywell PHD) operating within Operational Technology (OT) environments. It covers best practices for network placement across the Purdue Model, implementing robust access controls, establishing secure data replication architectures through DMZs (using data diodes), preventing SQL injection, and maintaining data integrity for safety-critical and regulatory reporting purposes. It is essential for minimizing cyber risks in industrial control systems.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to hardening managed Kubernetes clusters on major cloud platforms (EKS, AKS, GKE). It details implementing critical security layers, including Pod Security Standards, least-privilege network policies, workload identity (eliminating static cloud credentials), and runtime security monitoring. Essential for securing production environments and meeting compliance requirements.

This skill provides comprehensive security hardening guidelines for serverless compute platforms like AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions. It covers essential security pillars including enforcing least privilege IAM roles, integrating robust secrets management (e.g., AWS Secrets Manager), automating dependency vulnerability scanning within CI/CD pipelines, and implementing strict input validation to mitigate risks such as injection and credential theft. Ideal for DevSecOps practitioners and security architects.

A comprehensive security script designed to test REST API authentication mechanisms for common vulnerabilities. It assesses broken token validation, missing authentication on critical endpoints, weak password policies, and session management flaws. The tool specifically evaluates JWT implementation, API key handling, and adherence to OWASP API Security Top 10, helping identify authentication bypasses before production deployment.

A comprehensive guide for systematically assessing REST and GraphQL API endpoints against the OWASP API Security Top 10 risks. This includes practical workflows for testing critical vulnerabilities such as Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA), broken authentication, excessive data exposure, and rate limiting, using tools like Burp Suite, Postman, and ffuf. Ideal for pre-deployment audits and authorized penetration testing engagements.

A comprehensive guide and framework for assessing real-time WebSocket APIs (ws:// or wss://). This skill covers critical security checks, including Cross-Site WebSocket Hijacking (CSWSH), authentication bypass, message injection attacks, input validation flaws, and denial-of-service (DoS) via message flooding. It utilizes tools like Burp Suite and Python for simulating malicious payloads and ensuring secure real-time communication channels.

This guide details implementing an IEC 62443 compliant conduit architecture for secure remote access into Operational Technology (OT) environments. It mandates the use of jump servers, MFA gateways, session recording, and approval workflows within a DMZ to strictly control vendor and engineer access, eliminating direct VPN connections to critical ICS assets.

Manages production-grade secret infrastructure, covering Vault clusters, cloud secret stores, auth methods, rotation, and audit patterns to harden DevOps pipelines and respond to leaks.
