A comprehensive guide to executing the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) to achieve an Authorization to Operate (ATO). This covers the full lifecycle, including preparation, system categorization (FIPS 199), control selection and tailoring (SP 800-53 Rev 5), implementation, assessment (SAR), and continuous monitoring. Essential for organizations working under FISMA or FedRAMP.

This skill details the process of building and maintaining a comprehensive anti-phishing training program. It covers establishing baseline susceptibility assessments, deploying regular, progressive simulations, and providing interactive, role-based learning modules (using platforms like KnowBe4 or Proofpoint). The focus is on measuring and improving the human layer of defense against social engineering and sophisticated phishing attempts, thereby fostering a continuous security culture.

This skill automates the entire phishing incident response workflow using the Splunk SOAR REST API. It parses suspicious email headers and bodies to extract artifacts (URLs, IPs, sender details), creates a structured incident container, triggers a comprehensive automated investigation playbook, and compiles a final verdict report for security teams.

A comprehensive guide to achieving compliance with the HIPAA Security Rule (45 CFR Part 164). This skill outlines the mandatory steps to protect electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI), including conducting thorough risk analyses, deploying administrative, physical, and technical safeguards, managing Business Associate Agreements (BAAs), and preparing for breach notifications and OCR audits. Essential for Covered Entities and Business Associates.

This skill guides the deployment of decoy files, or "canary tokens," across critical file systems. These files act as tripwires, monitoring for unauthorized changes (modification, deletion, renaming). By tracking these high-value decoys, systems can detect ransomware encryption activity in real-time, providing a low false-positive, high-fidelity detection layer that complements traditional EDR and backup solutions.

Implements HashiCorp Vault's dynamic secrets engine to automatically generate, lease, and rotate short-lived credentials for databases (e.g., Postgres, MySQL), AWS IAM keys, and PKI certificates. This eliminates the risk associated with storing static secrets, ensuring compliance with zero-trust principles and automating the entire secret lifecycle.

A comprehensive framework for managing third-party risk (TPRM) throughout the entire vendor lifecycle. This tool guides users through inventory, risk tiering, running due diligence questionnaires (SIG, CAIQ), reviewing security evidence (SOC 2, ISO 27001), codifying requirements in contracts, and establishing continuous monitoring protocols. It is essential for maintaining compliance, managing supply chain risk, and securing data handled by external vendors.

This skill details how to monitor Certificate Transparency (CT) logs using industry tools like crt.sh and Certstream. By analyzing publicly issued SSL/TLS certificates, users can proactively detect lookalike domains, unauthorized certificate issuance for owned assets, and early-stage phishing infrastructure targeting their organization. Ideal for SOC analysts and threat hunters.

This skill details the implementation of continuous identity verification for Zero Trust architectures. It covers deploying phishing-resistant Multi-Factor Authentication (FIDO2/WebAuthn), establishing risk-based conditional access policies, and integrating identity governance controls aligned with NIST and CISA frameworks. Learn how to move beyond traditional passwords to dynamic, adaptive security models.

A comprehensive guide for conducting authorized vishing (voice phishing) pretext calls. This technique, utilized in red-teaming, simulates an attacker impersonating a trusted authority (e.g., IT support, vendor) to test an organization's human security controls. It measures employee adherence to verification protocols and highlights vulnerabilities in staff security awareness.

This guide provides a deep dive into the cryptographic techniques used by ransomware, including AES, RSA, ChaCha20, and hybrid schemes. It covers identifying algorithms, analyzing key management patterns (strong, weak, flawed), and reverse engineering file encryption routines to assess decryption feasibility and support recovery efforts.

This skill provides comprehensive functionality for monitoring and mapping adversary-controlled assets, such as C2 servers, phishing domains, and exploit kit hosts. By leveraging tools like Passive DNS, Certificate Transparency logs, and specialized scanners (Shodan/Censys), analysts can discover, track, and pivot through complex threat actor infrastructure over time, significantly enhancing security operations and threat intelligence maturity.
