This skill provides a structured methodology for detecting process injection techniques (MITRE ATT&CK T1055), which adversaries use for defense evasion and privilege escalation. It analyzes granular security logs, specifically utilizing Sysmon Event IDs 8 (CreateRemoteThread) and 10 (ProcessAccess), alongside source-target process relationship mapping to identify suspicious malicious behavior over general system activity.

A detailed methodology for proactive threat hunting focused on identifying deep-seated persistence mechanisms within Windows operating systems. This guide covers advanced techniques such as monitoring Run keys, analyzing Winlogon modifications, detecting IFEO injection, and identifying COM object hijacking. It is crucial for incident response, purple teaming, and ensuring system integrity against advanced persistent threats (APTs).

This guide details a threat hunting technique for detecting persistence mechanisms utilizing Windows Registry Run keys (T1547.001). By analyzing Sysmon Event ID 13 logs, it identifies suspicious auto-start entries pointing to temporary directories, encoded PowerShell commands, or abused LOLBins. Essential for SOC analysts and security engineers investigating incidents and developing robust detection rules.

This guide provides a structured methodology for proactively hunting adversaries who establish persistence using Windows Scheduled Tasks (T1053). It outlines the necessary prerequisites (EDR, SIEM, Sysmon) and a comprehensive workflow—from hypothesis formulation to threat correlation—for detecting suspicious task creation, unusual scheduling patterns, and attacker TTPs during incident response or red teaming.

This methodology guides security professionals in proactively hunting for suspicious activity related to Volume Shadow Copy deletion. By monitoring commands like vssadmin, wmic, and PowerShell usage, it helps detect anti-forensics techniques and preparatory steps often executed by ransomware actors, crucial during incident response or threat hunting exercises.

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.

Detects persistence mechanisms (T1547.001) by monitoring critical Windows startup directories. This skill analyzes autoruns entries, monitors for real-time file system changes using Python watchdog, and examines file metadata (like creation timestamps and digital signatures) to identify suspicious implants and unauthorized execution points.

This guide details proactive threat hunting techniques focused on detecting supply chain compromises. Use it when investigating trojanized software updates, compromised dependencies (npm/PyPI), or tampered build artifacts. It outlines a structured workflow using EDR/SIEM data (CrowdStrike, Splunk) to identify hidden threats and scope the impact of sophisticated attacks.

A comprehensive threat hunting methodology designed to detect adversary persistence and execution mechanisms utilizing Windows Scheduled Tasks (T1053.005). This guide covers analyzing task creation events (Event ID 4698), suspicious properties, unusual triggers, and correlating activity with process execution logs (Sysmon). Ideal for incident responders and security analysts conducting proactive threat hunting on compromised endpoints.

This skill guides threat hunters in detecting MITRE ATT&CK T1098 account manipulation techniques. It focuses on analyzing Windows Security Event Logs (like 4738, 4728) to uncover shadow administration creation, suspicious group membership changes, SID history injection, and unauthorized credential modifications, crucial for incident response and building robust detection rules.

A proactive methodology for detecting signs of compromise by analyzing outbound network traffic. This technique focuses on identifying anomalous patterns, such as connections to rare destinations, non-standard ports (T1571), or unusual connection frequencies, which often indicate Command and Control (C2) activity or data exfiltration.

A specialized threat hunting skill that analyzes System event logs (Event ID 7045) to detect suspicious Windows service installations. It parses service binary paths, identifies indicators of persistence mechanisms, and maps findings to MITRE ATT&CK techniques (T1543.003), helping security analysts uncover covert persistence methods.
