A comprehensive guide for performing systematic security assessments on web applications. Following the OWASP Web Security Testing Guide (WSTG), this process identifies critical vulnerabilities such as broken authentication, authorization flaws (IDOR), SQL injection, and Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). The workflow covers reconnaissance, mapping, and advanced testing techniques using tools like Burp Suite and sqlmap, ensuring deep coverage beyond automated scanner capabilities. Ideal for pre-production security validation and compliance audits.

Leverage Eric Zimmerman's EZ Tools suite for comprehensive Windows forensic artifact analysis. This guide details how to parse critical system data, including the Master File Table (MFT), registry hives, prefetch files, and event logs. Essential for digital forensics investigators and incident responders conducting deep system analysis.

This guide provides a comprehensive workflow for recovering deleted files from forensic disk images and storage media. Utilizing PhotoRec and file signature carving techniques, it addresses scenarios where file systems are corrupted, formatted, or metadata is unavailable. The process includes setup, running the recovery tool in both interactive and command-line modes, and advanced steps for organizing, hashing, and validating file integrity.

This comprehensive guide details advanced network reconnaissance using Nmap's full capabilities. It covers sophisticated host discovery across multiple protocols, deep port scanning with timing and performance tuning, accurate service version enumeration, and OS fingerprinting. Furthermore, it teaches advanced techniques like firewall evasion (fragmentation, spoofing) and running NSE scripts for systematic vulnerability detection, crucial for authorized security assessment reports.

This comprehensive guide outlines the end-to-end security lifecycle for Kubernetes applications deployed via Helm. It covers critical topics such as chart provenance verification (GPG signing), template scanning (using tools like kubesec and checkov), enforcing strict security contexts, managing secrets securely (ExternalSecrets), and defining robust RBAC rules for CI/CD pipelines.

This skill provides comprehensive security hardening guidelines for serverless compute platforms like AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions. It covers essential security pillars including enforcing least privilege IAM roles, integrating robust secrets management (e.g., AWS Secrets Manager), automating dependency vulnerability scanning within CI/CD pipelines, and implementing strict input validation to mitigate risks such as injection and credential theft. Ideal for DevSecOps practitioners and security architects.

A comprehensive security script designed to test REST API authentication mechanisms for common vulnerabilities. It assesses broken token validation, missing authentication on critical endpoints, weak password policies, and session management flaws. The tool specifically evaluates JWT implementation, API key handling, and adherence to OWASP API Security Top 10, helping identify authentication bypasses before production deployment.

A comprehensive guide for systematically assessing REST and GraphQL API endpoints against the OWASP API Security Top 10 risks. This includes practical workflows for testing critical vulnerabilities such as Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA), broken authentication, excessive data exposure, and rate limiting, using tools like Burp Suite, Postman, and ffuf. Ideal for pre-deployment audits and authorized penetration testing engagements.

A comprehensive methodology for penetration testing web applications to identify broken access control vulnerabilities. This guide covers systematic testing for Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), privilege escalation, insecure direct object references (IDOR), and API authorization flaws in multi-tenant environments. It outlines the use of tools like Burp Suite and ffuf to map endpoints and simulate various user roles.

A comprehensive guide for assessing the security of JSON Web Token (JWT) implementations. This toolkit details attacks against cryptographic weaknesses, including algorithm confusion (e.g., RS256 to HS256), 'none' attacks, brute-forcing HMAC secrets, and claim manipulation. Ideal for penetration testing and security audits of modern APIs and SSO systems.

A comprehensive guide and framework for assessing real-time WebSocket APIs (ws:// or wss://). This skill covers critical security checks, including Cross-Site WebSocket Hijacking (CSWSH), authentication bypass, message injection attacks, input validation flaws, and denial-of-service (DoS) via message flooding. It utilizes tools like Burp Suite and Python for simulating malicious payloads and ensuring secure real-time communication channels.

This playbook guides Security Operations Center (SOC) analysts through a comprehensive, multi-step process for triaging and prioritizing security incidents. It covers receiving alerts from SIEM/EDR, enriching data using threat intelligence feeds (VirusTotal, AbuseIPDB), classifying the incident type (MITRE ATT&CK mapping), and calculating a severity score based on asset criticality and data sensitivity. The workflow culminates in automating ticket creation and triggering immediate response procedures via tools like PagerDuty.
