This guide details the deployment of deception technologies, including canary files and honeypot shares, to detect ransomware activity at its earliest stages. It outlines configuring file integrity monitoring (FIM) and using specialized tokens to trigger alerts when ransomware attempts encryption or performs lateral movement, significantly enhancing security posture beyond standard EDR.

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 tool for implementing secure network segmentation in Operational Technology (OT) environments. It utilizes the Purdue Model and traffic baseline analysis to design secure zones using VLANs, industrial firewalls, and data diodes, ensuring migration from flat networks without operational disruption. Ideal for achieving IEC 62443 compliance and securing IT/OT convergence points.

A comprehensive guide to deploying Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs). Covers advanced security techniques like App-ID for application awareness, User-ID for identity mapping, zone-based policy enforcement, SSL decryption, and robust threat prevention profiles. Essential for building enterprise-grade network security architectures.

A comprehensive playbook designed for Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) environments. It provides structured, phased incident response procedures aligned with SANS PICERL, IEC 62443, and NIST standards. It specifically addresses safety-critical challenges, process availability, and the unique coordination required between IT Security, OT Engineering, and Plant Operations during cyber incidents, such as ransomware attacks.

A comprehensive guide for intercepting and analyzing HTTP/HTTPS traffic from mobile applications using Burp Suite. This skill walks through configuring proxies on Android and iOS, handling CA certificate installation, and executing advanced penetration testing techniques. It is essential for assessing API security, identifying data leakage, and finding authentication vulnerabilities in mobile client-server communications.

This guide details authenticated (credentialed) vulnerability scanning, which uses valid system credentials (SSH keys, domain passwords, etc.) to log into target hosts. Unlike external scanning, credentialed methods allow deep inspection of installed patches, local configurations, registry keys, and system files across diverse platforms (Linux, Windows, Network Devices). This significantly increases vulnerability detection rates and reduces false positives for comprehensive security assessments.

CAPE is an open-source sandbox built for automated malware analysis, derived from Cuckoo. It provides advanced behavioral monitoring, payload dumping, and configuration extraction using over 70 parsers for known malware families (e.g., Emotet, Cobalt Strike). It captures network IOCs, dropped files, and detects anti-evasion techniques, making it ideal for security assessments and incident response workflows via its robust API.

This comprehensive guide details the methodology for detecting and exploiting Blind Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities. It covers crucial techniques including out-of-band (OOB) detection, internal network enumeration (port scanning, IP scanning), accessing cloud metadata endpoints (AWS, GCP, Azure), and bypassing common security filters using various encoding and parsing confusion methods. Ideal for penetration testing and cloud security assessments.

This comprehensive guide outlines a structured workflow for conducting digital forensics investigations across major cloud providers, including AWS, Azure, and GCP. It covers critical steps such as evidence preservation (snapshots, metadata capture), systematic log collection (CloudTrail, Activity Logs, Audit Logs, VPC Flow Logs), and advanced analysis techniques to trace unauthorized accesses and identify root causes of security breaches.

A comprehensive guide for authorized penetration testing to map a target's entire DNS infrastructure. This skill covers advanced techniques including enumerating various DNS record types (A, MX, TXT, SRV), attempting zone transfers (AXFR/IXFR), brute-forcing subdomains, and analyzing security configurations (DNSSEC, SPF, DMARC). It is crucial for identifying the full external attack surface of a target organization.

This guide outlines systematic methodologies for reducing false positives in Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems. It covers advanced techniques including threshold tuning, multi-signal correlation enhancement, behavioral baseline integration, and threat intelligence filtering. Used by SOC analysts and detection engineers to combat alert fatigue and improve true positive detection rates.
