Structures completed intrusion investigations with the Diamond Model by documenting adversaries, capabilities, infrastructure, and victims plus their relationships, metadata, and pivots to cluster incidents and support campaign attribution, confidence scoring, and analytic write-ups.

BloodHound is a powerful, graph-based reconnaissance tool specifically designed for Active Directory environments. It utilizes graph theory to map deep, hidden relationships and potential attack paths—such as privilege escalation chains—from compromised low-value accounts to high-value targets like Domain Admins. This tool is essential for authorized red team exercises and penetration testing engagements.

This skill provides a comprehensive workflow to extract Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) from malware samples and analysis reports. It covers file hashes (SHA256, MD5), network artifacts (IPs, domains, URLs from strings and PCAPs), and host-based indicators (registry keys, file paths, mutexes) from sandbox reports. It is essential for threat intelligence sharing, building blocklists, and creating detection signatures (YARA, Snort).

Suricata is a high-performance, open-source network threat detection engine used for deep packet inspection. This skill details the deployment and configuration of Suricata in Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) mode. It covers setting up custom rules, integrating third-party rulesets (like Emerging Threats), and actively blocking malicious traffic in real time, making it essential for robust network security and compliance enforcement.

This guide demonstrates how to programmatically create, validate, and exchange complex structured threat intelligence objects (Indicators, Malware, Campaigns) using the STIX 2.1 standard and the stix2 Python library. It covers the full lifecycle of intelligence sharing, including defining patterns and publishing data via TAXII 2.1, making it essential for building sophisticated Threat Intelligence Platforms (TIPs) and integrating with SIEM/SOAR systems.

This skill automates the entire phishing incident response lifecycle using the Splunk SOAR REST API. It processes reported emails, extracts indicators of compromise (IOCs) like URLs and IPs, creates incident containers, attaches artifacts, and triggers automated playbooks for deep analysis and reporting. It is essential for security operations teams needing robust, programmatic incident handling and compliance alignment.

This guide details how to implement sophisticated Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) playbooks using Palo Alto Cortex XSOAR. It demonstrates full lifecycle automation, such as phishing incident investigation, requiring enrichment of URLs, IPs, and files, followed by automated containment actions (e.g., blocking senders, purging mailboxes). Mastering this allows SOC teams to drastically reduce Mean Time To Respond (MTTR) by automating detection, analysis, and remediation steps across multiple security tools.

A professional tool designed to draft comprehensive, structured academic papers in LaTeX format. It takes detailed outlines, research narratives, and figures, generating high-quality drafts tailored for specific top-tier venues (e.g., ICLR, NeurIPS, IEEE). Features include advanced citation management (DBLP/CrossRef) and structural style matching based on reference papers.

BloodHound is an open-source reconnaissance tool that leverages graph theory to analyze Active Directory relationships. This guide details the process of collecting AD data using SharpHound and visualizing complex attack paths. It helps identify potential privilege escalation chains, trust abuses, and misconfigurations necessary for an attacker to move from a low-privilege user account to Domain Admin, making it essential for advanced red-teaming and security auditing.

This skill systematically enumerates and audits Active Directory forest trust relationships using advanced techniques like SID filtering analysis, detecting SID history abuse, and assessing inter-realm Kerberos ticket configurations. It is designed for red-teaming and security auditing to identify potential lateral movement paths and trust vulnerabilities across organizational boundaries.

This guide details how to simulate ARP spoofing attacks in controlled, authorized lab environments. It demonstrates Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) risks by poisoning the ARP cache, allowing users to test network detection capabilities (IDS/IPS, DAI) and validate the effectiveness of security controls like port security and 802.1X. This skill is strictly for authorized penetration testing and educational purposes.

This guide details the methodology and tools for conducting authorized privilege escalation assessments within AWS environments. It systematically utilizes specialized tools like Pacu and Principal Mapper (PMapper) to identify critical IAM misconfigurations, excessive permissions, and weak cross-account trust relationships. It is essential for validating the principle of least privilege and assessing the potential blast radius of compromised credentials during authorized penetration testing.
