A comprehensive methodology for detecting advanced system compromises, including rootkits, hidden processes, and kernel-level malware. It utilizes memory forensics, cross-view detection (comparing different system views), and integrity checking to identify manipulated kernel structures, hooked system calls (SSDT, IAT, IRP), and covert network connections. Ideal for deep forensic investigations where standard tools fail to reveal the true state of a compromised system.

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.

This guide details how to detect advanced process injection techniques (T1055) by analyzing rich Sysmon telemetry. It focuses on identifying cross-process memory operations, such as remote thread creation (Event 8), suspicious process access (Event 10), and memory divergence (ProcessTampering/Event 25), which are hallmarks of DLL injection and process hollowing. Ideal for threat hunters and security analysts investigating sophisticated defense evasion.

This utility performs comprehensive forensic analysis on memory dumps. It leverages industry-standard tools like Volatility and Mimikatz to extract sensitive information, including cached credentials, NTLM/LM hashes, Kerberos tickets, and authentication tokens. It is crucial for incident response, assessing the scope of credential compromise, and investigating lateral movement attacks.

This tool leverages the Rekall memory forensics framework to conduct deep analysis of memory dumps. It is designed to detect sophisticated threats such as process hollowing, injected code via VAD anomalies, hidden operating system processes, and rootkit presence. It applies key forensic plugins (pslist, malfind, vadinfo) essential for rigorous incident response and malware analysis.

A proactive, hypothesis-driven skill designed to hunt for Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) within complex enterprise environments. It analyzes endpoint telemetry, network logs, and memory artifacts using frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK. Use this skill when investigating anomalous behavior flagged by UEBA, conducting scheduled threat sprints, or validating exposure to known TTPs using tools like Velociraptor and osquery.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing advanced memory protection mechanisms on Windows endpoints. It covers critical techniques like Data Execution Prevention (DEP), Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), and Control Flow Guard (CFG). Use this when hardening systems against various memory corruption exploits, such as buffer overflows and ROP chains, to significantly boost overall security posture.

A comprehensive guide and workflow for digital forensic investigators to analyze ransomware artifacts. This process involves preserving volatile evidence (memory dumps), identifying the ransomware variant from file extensions and ransom notes, establishing the attack timeline using Prefetch and Event Logs, and extracting critical Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) such as Bitcoin addresses and Tor sites. Essential for incident response and recovery planning.

A comprehensive guide for digital forensics professionals on analyzing volatile memory dumps using Volatility 3. Learn to extract critical evidence, including running processes, network connections, loaded DLLs, system credentials, and detecting advanced threats like process hollowing and rootkits. Essential for incident response and malware analysis.

A comprehensive tool designed for assessing the security posture of Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) firmware. It specializes in detecting critical vulnerabilities such as hardcoded credentials, undocumented debug interfaces, backdoor functions, and memory corruption flaws. The tool supports analyzing major industrial platforms (Siemens, Allen-Bradley) by performing static and dynamic analysis, and verifying firmware integrity against known-good baselines, adhering to standards like IEC 62443. Use only in authorized lab environments.

A comprehensive guide to conducting security assessments on thick client (desktop) applications. This skill details techniques ranging from static analysis (using tools like dnSpy, IDA Pro) to dynamic analysis (process monitoring with Procmon, network interception via Burp Suite). It covers finding hardcoded credentials, identifying insecure local storage, mitigating DLL hijacking, and analyzing memory manipulation within local applications.

A deep dive into advanced malware reverse engineering techniques. Learn how to utilize Ghidra's powerful disassembler and decompiler to analyze complex malware binaries. This guide covers identifying C2 communication protocols, extracting cryptographic routines, understanding memory injection, and analyzing low-level assembly code for core logic and evasion techniques. Essential for professional cybersecurity analysts.
