This guide is crucial for threat hunters investigating Active Directory compromises. It details how to monitor Windows Security Event ID 4662 to detect unauthorized attempts by non-domain-controller accounts to access critical directory replication GUIDs. These anomalies are strong indicators of DCSync attacks, which are used by attackers (e.g., using Mimikatz) to dump hashes, perform lateral movement, and execute credential theft.

A comprehensive guide for detecting DLL sideloading attacks, where adversaries place malicious DLLs near legitimate applications to hijack the execution flow. This technique is critical for threat hunting and incident response, requiring advanced EDR monitoring, Sysmon analysis, and verifying digital signatures to prevent defense evasion.

This guide provides a comprehensive methodology and technical approach for detecting malicious email forwarding rules. It is crucial for threat hunting, incident response, and proactive security assessments to identify persistent access mechanisms used by adversaries for intelligence collection and Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks. It outlines necessary prerequisites, workflow steps, and key threat indicators (T1114).

This skill provides comprehensive detection rules for advanced defense evasion techniques used by adversaries, including log tampering (T1070), timestomping, process injection (T1055), and disabling security tools (T1562). It is ideal for threat hunting, building detection rules, and investigating stealthy attacker activity using Sysmon and SIEM data.

This skill provides comprehensive guidance and detection rules for identifying fileless malware, in-memory attacks, and living-off-the-land techniques. It covers detecting PowerShell exploitation, reflective DLL injection, WMI abuse, and registry-resident threats, enabling security teams to build robust detections when traditional antivirus fails.

Analyzes Windows Security EVTX logs to detect Kerberos golden ticket assaults by correlating event IDs 4768, 4624, and 4672, flagging long-lived TGTs, privilege escalations without group changes, SID inconsistencies, and outputting a timeline-based report.

This skill guides the detection of Golden Ticket attacks within Active Directory by analyzing Kerberos logs (Event IDs 4768, 4769, 4771). It hunts for critical anomalies, such as mismatched encryption types (e.g., RC4 in AES environments), impossible ticket lifetimes, or service tickets appearing without a prior ticket grant request. This is essential for post-breach assessment and advanced threat hunting in domain environments.

This skill provides structured procedures for detecting Golden Ticket attacks, a severe threat involving forging Kerberos Tickets in Active Directory. It analyzes Windows Event ID 4769 for indicators such as RC4 encryption downgrades, abnormal ticket lifetimes, and inconsistencies in TGS/TGT requests. Designed for SOC analysts and threat hunters using SIEM platforms (Splunk/Elastic) to enhance security monitoring coverage against credential theft.

This guide details methodologies for proactively hunting and detecting various insider threat indicators. It focuses on identifying unusual data access patterns, off-hours activity, mass file exfiltration, and unauthorized privilege abuse. By correlating data from EDR and SIEM platforms, security teams can scope compromises, simulate attack chains, and significantly enhance proactive threat detection capabilities.

This guide outlines a comprehensive threat hunting methodology for detecting Kerberoasting attacks. It focuses on monitoring for anomalous Kerberos TGS requests targeting service accounts with SPNs, which are indicators of brute-force or offline password cracking attempts. Use this workflow during proactive security assessments, incident response, or when analyzing SIEM/EDR telemetry to identify potential lateral movement.

A comprehensive guide and framework for detecting attacker lateral movement within enterprise networks. It details the use of network flow analysis (Zeek), authentication log review (Windows Event Logs, Kerberos), and dedicated SIEM correlation rules (Splunk, Elastic) to identify techniques like Pass-the-Hash and RDP hopping. Ideal for threat hunters and security engineers building detection pipelines.

This guide outlines a comprehensive threat hunting methodology for detecting adversary lateral movement within a network environment. It utilizes Splunk SPL queries against rich Windows event data, including authentication logs (4624, 4625), SMB traffic, and Sysmon telemetry. By correlating source-to-destination activity and identifying unusual logon types (RDP, WinRM, SMB), users can proactively track an attacker's path after initial system compromise, fulfilling MITRE ATT&CK T1021 techniques.
