A comprehensive guide to implementing Mimecast Targeted Threat Protection (TTP). This suite defends against sophisticated phishing, spearphishing, and Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks by integrating four core modules: URL Protect, Attachment Protect, Impersonation Protect, and Internal Email Protect. Follow the detailed workflow to secure your organizational communications and meet compliance standards.

This methodology provides SOC teams with an adversary-centric framework to evaluate security detection capabilities against the MITRE ATT&CK framework. By systematically mapping existing SIEM rules and data sources, users can identify critical detection gaps, prioritize rule development efforts, and measure the overall maturity of their security operations center (SOC) defenses over time.

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 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.

This guide details the systematic workflow for patch management, covering the entire lifecycle from vulnerability discovery and risk assessment to controlled testing, multi-phased deployment, and final verification. Learn how to integrate tools like WSUS, SCCM, and Ansible into a robust, automated process to significantly reduce the attack surface and ensure compliance across enterprise IT infrastructure.

Learn how to implement Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) agents for Java and Python web applications. This skill covers deploying OpenRASP, detecting OWASP Top 10 attacks (SQLi, XSS, RCE), configuring security policies, and integrating real-time security alerts with SIEM platforms for comprehensive defense in depth.

This guide details how to implement advanced SIEM correlation rules to detect sophisticated Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs). By chaining multiple event types—including Windows authentication events, process execution telemetry, and network connection logs—across hosts, users can surface complex attack sequences that are invisible to single-event detections. It utilizes Splunk SPL and Sigma rule formats for robust security posture enhancement.

This skill guides Security Operations Center (SOC) teams through structured threat modeling using the MITRE ATT&CK framework. It enables mapping adversary Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) against organizational assets to identify critical detection coverage gaps, prioritize defensive investments, and improve overall security posture. Ideal for risk assessment, purple teaming, and compliance planning.

A comprehensive guide for SOC analysts and digital forensics experts. This skill covers the entire lifecycle of a phishing incident, from initial user report and header analysis (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) to detonating malicious URLs/attachments in sandboxes. It guides users on scoping the attack, identifying impacted users via SIEM/proxy logs, and executing containment measures like email purges.

A comprehensive guide and workflow for digital forensic investigators to analyze ransomware artifacts. This process involves preserving volatile evidence (memory dumps), identifying the ransomware variant from file extensions and ransom notes, establishing the attack timeline using Prefetch and Event Logs, and extracting critical Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) such as Bitcoin addresses and Tor sites. Essential for incident response and recovery planning.

This skill maps observed adversary behaviors, security alerts, and detection rules to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. It is essential for quantifying detection coverage, building ATT&CK heatmaps, tagging SIEM alerts, and prioritizing security controls based on known threat actor playbooks. Use it for comprehensive gap analysis and risk reporting.

BloodHound is an open-source reconnaissance tool that leverages graph theory to analyze Active Directory relationships. This guide details the process of collecting AD data using SharpHound and visualizing complex attack paths. It helps identify potential privilege escalation chains, trust abuses, and misconfigurations necessary for an attacker to move from a low-privilege user account to Domain Admin, making it essential for advanced red-teaming and security auditing.
