Skill UI

Expert in implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform across multi-cloud environments, including AWS, Azure, and GCP. Specializes in creating reusable, modular components, advanced state management (backends, locking, migrations), ensuring security best practices, and developing robust, production-grade cloud infrastructure pipelines.

This skill guides the implementation of comprehensive Identity Governance and Lifecycle Management (IGM) processes. It automates the entire employee identity lifecycle—from pre-hire onboarding (Joiner) to role changes (Mover) and termination (Leaver). Key components include Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) provisioning, periodic access recertification, and remediation of orphaned accounts, ensuring compliance with standards like SOX and GDPR.

Utilizes Google Distroless images and multi-stage Docker builds to drastically reduce container attack surface. By eliminating unnecessary OS components like shells, package managers, and core utilities, this technique is essential for hardening container security, meeting compliance requirements, or mitigating risks associated with bloated base images.

A comprehensive guide for incident responders detailing how to investigate Active Directory (AD) compromises. This skill covers analyzing critical components like NTDS.dit integrity, detecting Kerberos anomalies (Golden/Silver Tickets), tracing lateral movement, and identifying Group Policy abuse to reconstruct attacker activity and determine the full scope of a breach.

A comprehensive tool suite designed to analyze firmware images from embedded devices, including routers, IoT endpoints, and critical system components like UEFI/BIOS. It facilitates deep security analysis by performing firmware extraction, filesystem integrity checks, binary reverse engineering, and sophisticated detection of bootkits, backdoors, and unauthorized modifications.

Perform comprehensive security assessments for Google Cloud Platform environments. This tool audits critical security components—including IAM policies, firewall rules, and storage permissions—against industry benchmarks like the CIS GCP Foundations Benchmark. It helps organizations establish secure baselines and ensure continuous compliance across multiple GCP projects.

This comprehensive guide provides a systematic methodology for performing Kubernetes cluster penetration testing. It evaluates security by simulating diverse attacker techniques against key components such as the API server, etcd, RBAC policies, and network configurations. Users can identify critical misconfigurations and vulnerabilities using specialized tools (kube-hunter, Kubescape, kube-bench) and manual exploitation steps, ensuring clusters meet robust security standards. Ideal for authorized security audits and compliance validation.

A deep dive toolset for forensic investigation of advanced persistent threats (APT) at the firmware level. It analyzes UEFI variable modifications, SPI flash implants, Secure Boot bypass techniques, and unauthorized components within the EFI System Partition (ESP). Utilizes tools like chipsec, flashrom, and YARA for comprehensive integrity verification.

This guide outlines the implementation of Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) as a core component of a Zero Trust architecture. It details policies for URL risk classification, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) controls, and Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR). This is essential for hardening web access, protecting against zero-day exploits, phishing, and preventing data exfiltration from untrusted web content.

A comprehensive guide detailing the workflow for firmware reverse engineering. It uses tools like binwalk to identify embedded filesystems (e.g., SquashFS, CramFS), perform entropy analysis to locate hidden data, and extract components. The process covers deep inspection, credential discovery, and reporting for IoT and embedded security assessments.

This guide details how to implement secure, keyless software signing using the Sigstore ecosystem components (Cosign, Fulcio, Rekor). It establishes cryptographic provenance for container images and binaries by binding identity via OIDC, ensuring verifiable integrity and tamper-proofing throughout the CI/CD supply chain.

Generates HTML5 Canvas-based breadboard mockups and diagrams for retro computing builds, showing component placement, wiring, and labeled 6502/555 timer layouts as visual references or teaching aids.
