This guide details how to implement HashiCorp Vault's dynamic secrets engine. It automates the generation, lease management, and rotation of short-lived credentials for databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL), AWS IAM, and PKI certificates. This method eliminates the use of static, hardcoded secrets, enforcing zero-trust principles and meeting stringent compliance mandates like PCI-DSS.

This guide provides a comprehensive deep dive into implementing advanced network segmentation and zero-trust security controls within Kubernetes clusters using Calico. It covers standard Kubernetes NetworkPolicy, utilizing Calico's GlobalNetworkPolicy, and defining security Tiers, ensuring fine-grained, least-privilege communication between pods, and establishing robust security architectures for compliance.

This guide details the implementation of microsegmentation using Akamai Guardicore, enabling organizations to map complex application dependencies, visualize east-west traffic flows, and enforce least-privilege network policies. It is crucial for achieving zero-trust compliance by preventing lateral movement across heterogeneous workloads in data centers, cloud environments, and Kubernetes clusters.

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.

This skill guides the implementation and maintenance of compliance controls for North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) standards. It covers key areas including asset categorization (CIP-002), electronic security perimeters (CIP-005), system security management (CIP-007), and supply chain risk management. Use this when auditing, updating, or establishing compliance measures for Bulk Electric System (BES) cyber assets.

This skill guides the design and implementation of robust network segmentation using firewall zones, VLANs, ACLs, and microsegmentation. Learn to build secure, isolated zones (like DMZ, PCI CDE, Management) to enforce least-privilege access, restrict lateral movement, and meet stringent compliance requirements (PCI DSS, HIPAA).

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.

Implement Kubernetes RBAC to enforce least-privilege access across namespaces, covering Role/ClusterRole design, binding configuration, service account hardening, OIDC integration, and audit logging for multi-tenant clusters.

A comprehensive guide to securing Kubernetes Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). It teaches best practices for implementing least-privilege policies, eliminating excessive cluster-admin bindings, utilizing namespace-scoped roles, and integrating external identity providers (OIDC) to mitigate risks like privilege escalation and unauthorized data access.

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.

HashiCorp Boundary is an identity-aware proxy that establishes secure, zero-trust access to infrastructure resources, eliminating the need for traditional VPNs. It enforces a default-deny model and integrates with HashiCorp Vault to dynamically broker credentials. This ensures just-in-time, least-privilege access, automatic credential revocation, and comprehensive session recording for strict compliance and auditing.

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.
