A guide for security professionals and threat hunters to proactively detect advanced privilege escalation techniques across Windows and Linux environments. It covers critical attack methods including token manipulation, UAC bypass, unquoted service paths, and kernel exploits, utilizing EDR and SIEM data sources for comprehensive incident response and security assessments.

This skill provides comprehensive methods for detecting and preventing privilege escalation within Kubernetes pods and containers. It details using runtime tools like Falco for monitoring syscalls and capabilities, and implementing admission controls via OPA Gatekeeper or Pod Security Admission to enforce security best practices, thereby hardening the cluster against unauthorized access and dangerous configurations.

A comprehensive guide and methodology for detecting process hollowing (T1055.012). It involves advanced memory forensics, analyzing memory-mapped sections, and correlating parent-child process anomalies using EDR and Sysmon data to identify fileless and in-memory malware threats.

A comprehensive skill for detecting advanced malware techniques, including DLL injection, process hollowing, APC injection, and thread hijacking. Utilizes memory forensics (Volatility), API monitoring (Sysmon), and behavioral analysis to identify malicious code artifacts and suspicious process activities in a deep defense context.

This guide details advanced methods for detecting and preventing QR code phishing (quishing) attacks. It covers how malicious URLs embedded in images bypass traditional email security filters, requiring multimodal AI, OCR, and robust mobile threat defense solutions. Essential for SOC analysts and security teams.

A comprehensive skill for detecting early-stage ransomware indicators before data encryption occurs. It utilizes advanced network detection tools such as Zeek and Suricata, combined with SIEM correlation rules and threat intelligence feeds. This method monitors the entire pre-encryption kill chain, identifying precursor behaviors like initial access broker activity, Cobalt Strike C2 beaconing, credential harvesting (e.g., Mimikatz signatures), and data staging attempts, enabling timely incident response and containment.

This skill analyzes Windows Security Event Logs (EVTX) to detect RDP brute force attacks. It parses failed logon events (ID 4625) and correlates them with successful logons (ID 4624), performing source IP frequency analysis to identify attack patterns, username spraying, and potential account compromises. This is critical for SOC analysts and threat hunters investigating lateral movement or credential stuffing attempts.

A comprehensive methodology for detecting advanced system compromises, including rootkits, hidden processes, and kernel-level malware. It utilizes memory forensics, cross-view detection (comparing different system views), and integrity checking to identify manipulated kernel structures, hooked system calls (SSDT, IAT, IRP), and covert network connections. Ideal for deep forensic investigations where standard tools fail to reveal the true state of a compromised system.

A comprehensive guide and workflow for detecting unauthorized data exfiltration from AWS S3 buckets. It details how to leverage multiple AWS services—including CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Amazon Macie, and Athena—to analyze access patterns, identify bulk downloads, and detect cross-account data transfers, ensuring robust cloud compliance and security monitoring.

This skill provides a methodology for proactive threat hunting to detect compromised service accounts. It focuses on identifying anomalous activities such as unusual interactive logons, unauthorized privilege escalation, lateral movement, and suspicious access patterns using SIEM/EDR platforms. Essential for incident response and compliance.

This tool detects, inventories, and analyzes undocumented or abandoned API endpoints (Shadow APIs). By comparing live network traffic logs against official OpenAPI specifications, it helps security teams identify hidden attack vectors, gaps in API governance, and unmonitored entry points, significantly improving the security posture of complex systems.

A comprehensive guide on configuring advanced email security gateways (SEGs) to detect and block sophisticated, targeted spearphishing attacks. This skill covers essential detection layers, including impersonation protection, real-time URL detonation, attachment sandboxing, and creating custom behavioral rules. It is crucial for SOC analysts and security engineers building robust email threat defense systems.
