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.

This guide details passive OT network traffic analysis using Nozomi Networks Guardian sensors. It provides methods to achieve comprehensive asset visibility, real-time threat detection, and vulnerability assessment across sensitive Industrial Control Systems (ICS) without disrupting operations. It is crucial for building robust OT Security Operations Centers (SOCs) and ensuring compliance with industry standards like IEC 62443.

This skill details the deployment of Privileged Access Management (PAM) for critical database systems, including Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. It covers essential security controls such as session proxy configuration, credential vaulting, query auditing, and enforcing least-privilege access, helping organizations meet stringent compliance and security standards.

This guide details the comprehensive implementation of privileged session monitoring and recording using Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions, such as CyberArk PSM. It covers essential steps including architectural routing, configuring keystroke logging, real-time risk analysis, and establishing secure, tamper-proof audit trails for critical administrative access (RDP, SSH, Databases). Essential for meeting strict compliance standards like SOX, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS.

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 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 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 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.
