A comprehensive guide and workflow for threat hunting suspicious PowerShell activity (T1059.001). This technique focuses on detecting advanced adversary techniques such as encoded commands, AMSI bypass, and download cradles using telemetry from EDR platforms (CrowdStrike, MDE), SIEMs (Splunk, Elastic), and Sysmon. Essential for proactive threat detection, incident response, and security assessment.

A comprehensive guide and set of detection rules for identifying OS credential dumping techniques (MITRE T1003). It leverages EDR telemetry, Sysmon process access monitoring, and Windows security event correlation to detect attacks targeting LSASS memory, SAM databases, and NTDS.dit files. Essential for proactive threat hunting and incident response.

This guide details how to detect T1055 process injection techniques, including DLL injection, process hollowing, and remote thread creation. By analyzing specific Sysmon Event IDs (1, 7, 8, 10, 25) that track cross-process memory operations and handle access, security teams can proactively hunt for defense-evasion activities, investigate EDR alerts, or validate security monitoring coverage.

Detects data-staging activity (MITRE ATT&CK T1074) by analyzing EDR/Sysmon process-creation and file-system telemetry. This skill monitors for archive creation (7-Zip, RAR, tar), unusual file consolidation from multiple directories, and suspicious activity in temporary or hidden paths. It is essential for threat hunting, building robust detection rules, and validating security monitoring coverage against data exfiltration attempts.

This guide provides a systematic methodology for proactive threat hunting targeting Living-off-the-Land Binaries (LOLBins). Attackers misuse legitimate, signed system binaries (like certutil or rundll32) to execute malicious payloads or download files, effectively bypassing traditional security controls and application allowlisting. Use this framework when establishing EDR/SIEM detection rules or when investigating advanced, fileless defense-evasion techniques.

This skill detects sophisticated process injection techniques (MITRE T1055), including CreateRemoteThread and DLL injection. By analyzing Sysmon Event IDs 8 and 10 alongside EDR telemetry, it enables security analysts to hunt for in-memory code injection and defense evasion tactics used by adversaries on Windows endpoints. Essential for incident response and building detection coverage.

A comprehensive guide for hypothesis-driven threat hunting focusing on Windows Scheduled Task persistence (T1053). This methodology guides the creation of advanced SIEM/EDR queries against critical events like task creation (Event ID 4698), suspicious actions, and unusual scheduling patterns. Essential for incident response, proactive threat hunting, and security assessments.

A comprehensive guide for security professionals to proactively hunt for Indicators of Compromise related to Volume Shadow Copy deletion (T1490). This technique is critical for detecting ransomware preparation and anti-forensics activity. It details using SIEM/EDR platforms to query for specific commands (vssadmin, wmic, PowerShell) associated with deleting system recovery points and shadow copies.

This guide details a structured threat hunting methodology designed to proactively detect sophisticated spearphishing campaigns. It instructs users on correlating indicators across email logs, endpoint telemetry (EDR), and network data (SIEM) to identify targeted threats, supporting incident response and security posture improvement.

A comprehensive guide for conducting hypothesis-driven threat hunting against supply chain compromises (T1195). This skill focuses on querying SIEM/EDR logs to detect indicators of trojanized software updates, compromised dependencies, unauthorized code modifications, and tampered build artifacts. It is crucial when investigating suspected vendor compromises or scoping a build pipeline breach, requiring advanced knowledge of logging systems and threat intelligence.

Conduct hypothesis-driven threat hunting for Command-and-Control (C2) activity (T1071). This skill guides the analysis of SIEM/EDR network telemetry to detect anomalous outbound traffic, rare destination IPs, non-standard ports, and unusual connection frequencies, helping identify beaconing or data exfiltration attempts. Essential for proactive defense and incident response.

This skill performs threat hunting for persistence mechanisms by parsing Windows System event logs (Event ID 7045). It specifically detects suspicious service installations, analyzing service binary paths, and correlating these events with advanced telemetry (Sysmon/EDR) to identify indicators of compromise (MITRE ATT&CK T1543.003). Ideal for incident response and security validation.
