A comprehensive guide to optimizing cloud expenditure on the Vercel platform. It details how to understand the Fluid Compute pricing model, identify key cost drivers (such as function execution time, bandwidth, and middleware invocations), and implement best practices like edge caching, memory right-sizing, and aggressive asset caching. Use this when analyzing high Vercel billing, implementing cost controls, or managing a SaaS budget.

This specialized skill acts as an expert AI auditor for Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) compliance. It is designed to review critical records, including HACCP plans, Preventive Controls, and Supply Chain documentation for food processing facilities. Use it to simulate FDA inspections, identify compliance gaps (such as missing CCPs or inadequate corrective actions), and receive actionable guidance to ensure the highest standards of food safety.

Pass-the-Ticket (PtT) is a critical post-exploitation technique used in red teaming and offensive security assessments. It allows an attacker to move laterally across a network by utilizing stolen Kerberos tickets (TGT or TGS) without ever needing the user's password. This skill outlines the process of dumping tickets from memory (e.g., LSASS) and injecting them into a current session to impersonate a high-privilege user for access to sensitive resources.

This guide details how to build and manage a robust two-tier Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) using OpenSSL. Learn to establish a Root CA and an Intermediate CA, issue server and client certificates, configure Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs), and implement best practices for secure key management and certificate policy enforcement, ensuring compliance and high security standards.

This comprehensive guide details how to implement robust security hardening measures for LDAP directory services. It specifically addresses critical vulnerabilities like LDAP injection, anonymous binding, and channel binding bypass. Key features include mandatory LDAPS enforcement, granular access control list configuration, and integrating advanced monitoring to ensure the infrastructure meets high compliance standards (e.g., NIST 800-53). Essential for security architects and operations teams.

This guide details the process of configuring microsegmentation policies to enforce least-privilege access between workloads. It covers the entire workflow, from application dependency mapping and discovery (Phase 1) to defining label-based, default-deny security zones (Phase 2). It is crucial for preventing lateral movement in highly secure, zero-trust architectures using tools like VMware NSX, Illumio, and Calico.

A comprehensive guide to deploying and configuring Suricata, a high-performance IDS/IPS. This skill covers setting up multi-threaded packet capture, integrating Emerging Threats rulesets, generating structured EVE JSON logs, and enabling deep protocol inspection (HTTP, TLS, DNS). It enables real-time threat detection and seamless SIEM integration for centralized security monitoring.

This skill guides the advanced configuration of Windows Event Logging using Group Policy Objects (GPO) and advanced audit policies. It enables high-fidelity logging for critical security events, including process creation (Event 4688), logon/logoff activities, and object access. The process covers optimizing log sizes and implementing Windows Event Forwarding (WEF) to centralize data into SIEM platforms for effective threat detection and forensic investigation.

This solution automates the processing of AWS GuardDuty findings using EventBridge and AWS Lambda. It enables real-time incident response capabilities, including automatic quarantine of compromised EC2 resources, comprehensive forensic snapshot creation, and immediate high-severity security notifications via SNS. Ideal for SOC teams seeking to drastically reduce Mean Time To Response (MTTR) and strengthen cloud security posture.

This guide details the exploitation of the Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) ESC1 vulnerability. By leveraging misconfigurations, an attacker can request certificates impersonating high-privileged users (e.g., Domain Admins). The workflow covers AD enumeration, forging certificates with arbitrary Subject Alternative Names (SANs), authenticating via PKINIT, and ultimately escalating domain privileges using tools like mimikatz. Essential for authorized red team and penetration testing.

A comprehensive guide and detection methodology for identifying covert communication channels utilizing DNS records. This technique analyzes Zeek dns.log for indicators such as high-entropy subdomains, excessive query volume, unusually long query lengths, and abnormal record type distributions, which suggest data exfiltration or Command and Control (C2) activity.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing application whitelisting using Windows AppLocker. It drastically restricts unauthorized software execution (malware, shadow IT) on Windows endpoints by enforcing strict application control policies. Use this method to meet critical compliance requirements (such as PCI DSS or NIST standards), block common attack vectors like LOLBins, and significantly reduce the overall attack surface in high-security environments.
