A comprehensive guide to deploying and configuring Proofpoint Email Protection as a Secure Email Gateway (SEG). This solution establishes a critical security checkpoint that uses advanced ML, sandboxing, and threat intelligence to detect and block sophisticated threats, including phishing, malware, BEC, and spam, before they reach the user inbox. Ideal for organizations strengthening their email security architecture and meeting compliance standards.

This guide details the implementation of a robust, ransomware-resilient backup architecture following the extended 3-2-1-1-0 rule. It covers critical steps such as classifying assets, defining RPO/RTO, implementing immutable or air-gapped storage, and isolating backup credentials from the production domain. Use this knowledge to design a multilayered defense against data loss and ensure reliable recovery points.

This skill guides the deployment and comprehensive configuration of Rapid7 InsightVM. It covers setting up the Security Console and distributed Scan Engines for both authenticated and unauthenticated vulnerability scanning. Learn how to manage diverse scan templates (e.g., PCI, HIPAA), utilize various credential types (SSH, WMI), and integrate endpoint assessment for robust cybersecurity posture management.

This comprehensive guide details the deployment of HashiCorp Vault for robust, centralized secrets management in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. It covers configuring dynamic secret engines for databases (PostgreSQL) and cloud providers (AWS), integrating diverse authentication methods (OIDC, AppRole, Kubernetes), and securely delivering short-lived secrets to Kubernetes workloads via agents. The primary goal is to enforce zero-trust principles by eliminating hardcoded, long-lived credentials from application code and CI/CD pipelines.

This guide details the implementation of comprehensive security monitoring using Datadog Cloud SIEM, Cloud Security Management (CSM), and Workload Protection. It covers deploying the Datadog Agent across hybrid cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP), ingesting critical log sources (CloudTrail, VPC Flow Logs, etc.), configuring Workload Protection, and creating custom detection rules to detect threats, enforce compliance, and provide centralized SOC visibility.

This skill guides the implementation of Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) workflows using platforms like Splunk Phantom. It automates the entire incident lifecycle, including alert triage, IOC enrichment (via VirusTotal, CrowdStrike), containment actions, and ticket creation (ServiceNow). Ideal for SOC teams needing to reduce Mean Time To Respond (MTTR) and standardize complex security procedures across multiple tools.

This skill guides the deployment and configuration of a TAXII 2.1 server using OpenTAXII. It enables automated, standardized exchange of STIX-formatted cyber threat intelligence (CTI) indicators between organizations. Use cases include establishing secure threat sharing pipelines, integrating with SIEM/SOAR platforms, and meeting stringent compliance requirements.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing robust USB device control policies. It restricts unauthorized removable media access to mitigate data exfiltration risks and prevent malware introduction via USB endpoints. Learn how to deploy granular policies using Group Policy Objects (GPO), Microsoft Intune, or advanced Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) platforms to meet strict compliance standards.

A comprehensive guide to deploying Zero Standing Privilege (ZSP) using CyberArk Secure Cloud Access. This solution eliminates persistent privileged access by provisioning ephemeral, Just-in-Time (JIT) credentials across hybrid and multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP). Access is strictly governed by the TEA framework: Time limits, scoped Entitlements, and mandatory Approvals, ensuring the principle of least privilege is maintained.

This guide details how to implement NextDNS as a zero-trust DNS filtering layer. By utilizing encrypted resolution (DoH/DoT) and real-time threat intelligence, it blocks malicious domains, prevents data exfiltration, filters ads/trackers, and enforces granular security policies across all endpoints, aligning with Zero Trust principles and enhancing overall network security.

This comprehensive guide details the implementation of Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) in multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP). Following NIST SP 800-207 and BeyondCorp principles, it covers identity-centric access controls, micro-segmentation, continuous verification, and deploying Identity-Aware Proxies (IAP) to eliminate implicit network trust.

A comprehensive guide to implementing Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) across major cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP). This skill replaces traditional VPNs with identity-aware proxies, micro-segmentation, and conditional access policies. It ensures secure, context-aware access to cloud workloads, limiting lateral movement and adhering to BeyondCorp architectural principles.
