Provides a structured, risk-based framework for managing patches in Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS). It addresses the critical difference between IT and OT environments, prioritizing safety and availability over immediate remediation. The guide covers risk scoring, vendor compatibility testing, staged deployment, and defining compensating controls for unpatchable assets.

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.

A comprehensive guide to implementing Kubernetes Pod Security Admission (PSA), a native admission controller stable since v1.25. PSA enforces Pod Security Standards (Privileged, Baseline, Restricted) at the namespace level, replacing the deprecated PodSecurityPolicy. Use this skill to harden Kubernetes environments, establish robust security baselines, and control pod deployment security using enforce, audit, or warn modes.

This guide details implementing Policy-as-Code using Open Policy Agent (OPA) and Gatekeeper. It covers writing complex Rego policies, deploying OPA Gatekeeper as a Kubernetes admission controller, and integrating policy testing into CI/CD pipelines to enforce security standards across clusters. Ideal for DevSecOps practitioners requiring robust governance.

This comprehensive guide details the deployment of Privileged Access Management (PAM) using CyberArk. Learn how to secure the enterprise by discovering, vaulting, rotating, and monitoring highly privileged credentials. The process covers vault architecture design, policy configuration, session isolation via PSM, and integration with SIEM systems, ensuring adherence to strict compliance standards like NIST 800-53.

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 provides comprehensive steps for deploying and configuring the Rapid7 InsightVM platform. It covers setting up the Security Console, deploying distributed Scan Engines, configuring various scan templates (e.g., CIS Policy, PCI ASV), and implementing deep credentialed scanning using WMI/SMB for thorough vulnerability visibility across enterprise environments. Use this when building robust security architectures or achieving compliance.

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.

A comprehensive guide for implementing SAML 2.0 Single Sign-On (SSO) using Okta as the Identity Provider (IdP). This skill covers end-to-end configuration, including SP-initiated and IdP-initiated flows, secure attribute mapping, advanced certificate management (SHA-256, AES-256), and security hardening practices required for enterprise-grade identity access management (IAM) deployments. Learn to establish robust and compliant authentication architecture.

This skill guide details how to build a robust, SCIM 2.0-compliant API endpoint to manage user identities automatically. It focuses on integrating this API with Okta as an Identity Provider (IdP), enabling automated provisioning, deprovisioning, and attribute synchronization for seamless user lifecycle management in enterprise environments.

A comprehensive guide to deploying HashiCorp Vault for centralized secrets management. Learn how to handle dynamic secret generation for databases and cloud providers, manage PKI, and integrate securely with Kubernetes. This solution is critical for eliminating hardcoded credentials from application code and CI/CD pipelines, enforcing zero-trust principles, and migrating to short-lived, auto-rotated secrets.

This skill guides the integration of gitleaks and trufflehog into CI/CD pipelines. It automates the detection of hardcoded secrets, such as API keys, passwords, and tokens, preventing their accidental deployment. By integrating scans as a mandatory pre-deployment gate, organizations enforce strong security policies and maintain compliance.
