This guide details the detection and exploitation of the critical MS17-010 (EternalBlue) vulnerability in SMBv1. It covers the full red-teaming lifecycle, including vulnerability scanning using Nmap and executing payloads via Metasploit. It is designed for authorized penetration testing and simulated adversary engagements against legacy Windows environments.

This skill guides the security hardening of Windows endpoints (10/11, Server 2019/2022) using established CIS Benchmarks. It provides a comprehensive workflow for establishing secure organizational baselines, configuring Group Policy Objects (GPOs), and enforcing security controls across critical areas like password policies, audit logs, and firewall rules. It is essential for achieving compliance with standards like PCI DSS, HIPAA, and SOC 2.

This guide details how to hunt for DCSync attacks (MITRE ATT&CK T1003.006) in Active Directory environments. It focuses on analyzing Windows Security Event ID 4662, specifically looking for DS-Replication-Get-Changes requests originating from non-domain-controller accounts. This technique is critical for incident response, purple teaming, and detecting unauthorized credential theft via Active Directory replication abuse.

This tool analyzes Windows Event Logs (ID 4688, Sysmon ID 1) and WMI-Activity Operational events to detect suspicious lateral movement. It specifically hunts for WmiPrvSE.exe spawning child processes (like cmd.exe or powershell.exe) or identifying WMI event subscriptions, which are common indicators of remote code execution and persistence.

This advanced skill guides users on hunting for Living Off the Land Binaries (LOLBins) abuse by analyzing endpoint process creation logs. It focuses on detecting malicious use of legitimate Windows binaries (like certutil or mshta) for defense evasion or data exfiltration, mapping techniques to MITRE T1218. Ideal for threat hunters and security teams building advanced detection rules.

This skill helps detect NTLM relay attacks (T1557.001) by analyzing Windows Security Event ID 4624 (logon type 3) for NTLMSSP usage. It flags critical anomalies such as IP-to-hostname mismatches, evidence of LLMNR/NBT-NS poisoning, rapid cross-domain authentication, and verifies SMB signing status. It is essential for proactive threat hunting and security incident investigation in Active Directory environments.

This skill guides proactive security auditing and threat hunting for registry-based persistence artifacts (MITRE T1547) in Windows environments. It focuses on identifying mechanisms such as Run/RunOnce keys, Winlogon modifications, IFEO debugger injection, and COM hijacking to detect malware autostart techniques and scope compromises during incident response.

This skill detects persistence mechanisms by monitoring Windows startup directories for suspicious file creation (T1547.001). It utilizes real-time file system monitoring via Python watchdog, cross-references Autoruns entries, and analyzes file metadata to identify implants that survive system reboots. Essential for threat hunting and validating security monitoring coverage.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing application whitelisting using Windows AppLocker. It drastically restricts unauthorized software execution (malware, shadow IT) on Windows endpoints by enforcing strict application control policies. Use this method to meet critical compliance requirements (such as PCI DSS or NIST standards), block common attack vectors like LOLBins, and significantly reduce the overall attack surface in high-security environments.

This skill guides the implementation of full disk encryption using Microsoft BitLocker on Windows endpoints. It covers best practices for deploying encryption via GPO, Intune, and command line, ensuring data-at-rest protection. Use this when meeting compliance requirements (PCI, HIPAA) or securing mobile workstations against physical loss or theft.

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.

This guide details the implementation of advanced, phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication using Microsoft Entra ID. It covers configuring FIDO2 security keys, Windows Hello for Business, and passkey support via Microsoft Authenticator. Use this skill to eliminate reliance on passwords, mitigate credential stuffing attacks, and satisfy strict regulatory mandates for modern identity access management.
