A comprehensive guide for systematically evaluating Kubernetes cluster security. It simulates advanced attacker techniques against critical components like the API server, etcd, kubelet, RBAC, and network policies, identifying misconfigurations and vulnerabilities. Essential for security auditors, penetration testers, and DevOps teams performing deep cluster security assessments.

This guide details the comprehensive process of onboarding new log sources into Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platforms. It covers critical steps including data source discovery, configuring collectors (e.g., Syslog, Splunk UF, CloudTrail), building parsers, normalizing fields to a common schema, and validating data quality. This systematic approach is essential for achieving complete security visibility and effective threat detection across the enterprise.

Conduct comprehensive security assessments for Operational Technology (OT) networks, including SCADA and DCS systems. This skill maps industrial protocols (Modbus, DNP3, OPC UA) and analyzes traffic against the Purdue Model. It is crucial for identifying IT/OT convergence risks, detecting misconfigurations, and ensuring compliance with standards like IEC 62443.

This guide details how to use GoPhish, an open-source framework, to conduct authorized phishing simulations. You will learn the complete lifecycle, from deploying the tool and configuring SMTP profiles, to creating realistic email templates and cloning secure landing pages. The skill culminates in analyzing campaign results to assess organizational security posture and improve employee resilience against social engineering attacks.

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for performing privilege escalation assessments post-initial compromise. It guides testers in identifying paths from low-privilege access to root or SYSTEM-level control on both Linux and Windows operating systems. Techniques covered include abusing SUID binaries, exploiting misconfigured services, leveraging kernel vulnerabilities, and harvesting credentials.

This skill covers advanced techniques used in red teaming and penetration testing to elevate privileges from a low-level user to root access on a compromised Linux system. It details how to enumerate and exploit various vectors, including SUID/SGID binaries, misconfigured sudo rules, kernel vulnerabilities (e.g., Dirty Pipe), Cron job abuse, and abusing system services. Essential for comprehensive security assessments.

This guide provides a comprehensive methodology for auditing essential HTTP security headers, including CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy. It helps identify missing or improperly configured browser-level protections, crucial for mitigating vulnerabilities like XSS, clickjacking, and mixed content issues, ensuring compliance with standards like PCI DSS and SOC 2.

This sophisticated tool automates the security review of serverless functions across major cloud providers, including AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and GCP Cloud Functions. It systematically identifies critical misconfigurations such as overly permissive IAM execution roles (wildcard actions), hardcoded secrets in environment variables, and potential lack of runtime protections. Ideal for pre-production auditing and compliance checks.

A comprehensive tool for conducting deep security assessments of SSL/TLS server configurations. It uses the sslyze library to evaluate supported protocol versions (e.g., TLS 1.0-1.3), cipher suite strength, certificate chain validity, HSTS enforcement, and scan for critical vulnerabilities like Heartbleed and ROBOT. Ideal for security auditing and incident response.

This comprehensive guide details the process of performing authenticated and unauthenticated vulnerability assessments using Tenable Nessus. It covers everything from advanced scan configuration (port discovery, credentialing, plugin setup) to detailed result analysis, including cross-referencing CVEs and prioritizing remediation based on CVSS scores and exploit availability. Ideal for compliance auditing, penetration testing, and maintaining system patch compliance.

This skill provides comprehensive procedures for identifying and remediating Amazon S3 bucket misconfigurations. It covers enabling Block Public Access settings, auditing policies and ACLs, enforcing default encryption (KMS/AES), and utilizing AWS Config/Lambda for automated remediation. It is essential for maintaining data compliance and responding to security incidents.

A comprehensive guide detailing the use of Tenable Nessus, an industry-leading vulnerability scanner. Learn how to configure advanced scan policies, perform both authenticated and unauthenticated scans across servers, network devices, and web applications. This skill covers end-to-end processes from execution to result analysis and reporting.
