This guide details comprehensive detection methods for DCSync attacks (MITRE T1003.006) in Active Directory. Attackers abuse legitimate directory replication protocols to extract sensitive password hashes. Detection relies on auditing Windows Event ID 4662 for unauthorized access attempts to critical Directory Service GUIDs, specifically flagging non-domain-controller accounts attempting replication calls. Essential for threat hunting and incident response.

A comprehensive guide for advanced threat hunting, focusing on detecting DLL side-loading and search-order hijacking (MITRE T1574). It instructs users to analyze Sysmon Event ID 7 logs, validate file signatures and hashes, and identify path anomalies to uncover APT persistence mechanisms. Essential for incident response and proactive threat detection in enterprise environments.

A comprehensive guide for detecting Kerberoasting attacks by monitoring for anomalous Kerberos TGS requests (Event ID 4769). This technique targets service accounts with Service Principal Names (SPNs), which are requested offline by attackers to crack service account passwords. Use this during threat hunting or incident response to scope MITRE T1558 credential access activities in Active Directory environments.

A comprehensive guide and set of detection rules for identifying OS credential dumping techniques (MITRE T1003). It leverages EDR telemetry, Sysmon process access monitoring, and Windows security event correlation to detect attacks targeting LSASS memory, SAM databases, and NTDS.dit files. Essential for proactive threat hunting and incident response.

Execute deep, stealthy red team exercises that emulate real-world sophisticated adversaries. This process maps attacks to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, testing an organization's entire security posture—including detection, incident response, and containment capabilities (Blue Team). It is designed for simulating full attack lifecycles (initial access, lateral movement, exfiltration) to validate security investments and meet regulatory requirements (TIBER-EU, CBEST). Requires executive authorization and defined Rules of Engagement.

This guide details how to hunt for DCSync attacks (MITRE ATT&CK T1003.006) in Active Directory environments. It focuses on analyzing Windows Security Event ID 4662, specifically looking for DS-Replication-Get-Changes requests originating from non-domain-controller accounts. This technique is critical for incident response, purple teaming, and detecting unauthorized credential theft via Active Directory replication abuse.

This skill guides the deployment and implementation of Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) platforms. It provides a continuous, automated method to validate security control effectiveness against real-world attacker techniques mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. Use this when moving beyond traditional point-in-time penetration testing to establish continuous control validation and automated adversary emulation across the entire IT environment.

A comprehensive skill for Security Operations Center (SOC) teams and incident responders. It detects advanced lateral movement techniques, including Pass-the-Hash, PsExec, WMI, and RDP pivoting, by correlating Windows Security logs, Sysmon data, and network flow records within a SIEM. This capability is mapped to MITRE ATT&CK TA0008 and is essential for tracking an attacker's internal progression after initial compromise. Not intended for external attack detection.

This guide details using the comprehensive AADInternals PowerShell toolkit for defensive validation of Microsoft Entra ID, Azure AD, and AD FS environments. It covers unauthenticated tenant reconnaissance, acquiring access tokens for multiple Microsoft APIs, and critically, testing for federation backdoors (Golden SAML) by simulating advanced attack techniques (MITRE T1606.002). It is designed for authorized red-team assessments to map external attack surfaces and validate identity infrastructure hardening.

A comprehensive methodology for exploiting modern Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines. This skill covers advanced attack vectors across major platforms, including GitHub Actions expression injection, Jenkins RCE, GitLab YAML abuse, and Azure DevOps compromise. Techniques focus on privilege escalation, credential theft, and supply chain poisoning, mapping to MITRE ATT&CK T1195.002.

A comprehensive methodology for offensive security, detailing how to systematically extract secrets from Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. Techniques covered include dumping environment variables, exploiting misconfigurations in HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, and cloud platform tokens (GitHub, GitLab, etc.). It also guides attackers on OIDC federation abuse, build log analysis, and advanced exfiltration methods, mapping to MITRE ATT&CK T1552.
