This guide details the comprehensive workflow for conducting memory forensics using Volatility 3. It covers the entire incident response lifecycle, from acquiring raw RAM dumps to analyzing processes, detecting rootkits, investigating network connections, and extracting sensitive artifacts like credentials and injected code. Essential for live memory analysis in cybersecurity investigations.

A comprehensive guide for conducting penetration testing on iOS and Android mobile applications, adhering to the OWASP MASTG. This skill covers the full mobile attack surface, including static analysis of binaries, dynamic runtime testing, and deep API security assessment. Techniques taught include bypassing certificate pinning, analyzing local data storage (Keychain, SQLite), and identifying vulnerabilities in authentication and network communication.

A comprehensive framework for assessing network security posture. This skill guides the tester through the entire penetration testing lifecycle, from reconnaissance and host discovery (using tools like Nmap) to service enumeration, vulnerability identification (CVEs), and controlled exploitation (Metasploit). It is essential for validating firewall rules, ensuring compliance (e.g., PCI-DSS), and stress-testing critical infrastructure security.

A comprehensive guide for conducting authorized wireless network penetration tests. This skill assesses the overall security posture of WiFi infrastructure, covering weak encryption protocols, captive portal bypasses, Evil Twin attacks, WPA2/WPA3 handshake capture, and rogue access point detection. It evaluates wireless authentication methods, network segmentation, and the effectiveness of WIDS/WIPS systems.

AWS Verified Access is a Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) service that provides secure, VPN-less access to internal applications. It uses granular Cedar policies to evaluate user identity (integrating with Okta, IAM Identity Center) and device security posture (CrowdStrike, Jamf) in real-time. Use this guide when replacing traditional VPNs, enforcing strict conditional access controls, or deploying multi-account Verified Access infrastructure across AWS.

This guide details the robust process of implementing VLAN-based (802.1Q) network segmentation on managed switches. It is crucial for isolating critical zones—such as DMZ, servers, and IoT—to meet strict compliance standards (PCI-DSS, HIPAA) and significantly limiting the blast radius during a security incident by controlling lateral movement. Includes port hardening and ACL configuration.

A comprehensive guide to configuring pfSense firewalls for robust network security. This skill covers setting up complex network segmentation across multiple zones (DMZ, internal, guest, IoT), implementing granular firewall rules, configuring NAT for port forwarding, and establishing site-to-site or remote-access VPN tunnels using IPsec or OpenVPN. Ideal for network engineers deploying perimeter or internal firewalls.

This guide provides a comprehensive walkthrough for deploying, configuring, and tuning Snort 3. It covers essential steps such as setting network interfaces to promiscuous mode, writing custom rules using Lua, integrating with SIEM platforms, and utilizing community rulesets. Ideal for network security professionals implementing robust, signature-based intrusion detection at critical network boundaries.

A comprehensive guide to implementing and validating Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3. This skill covers configuring modern cipher suites, key exchange groups, and enforcing perfect forward secrecy (PFS). Use this when deploying secure communication protocols, hardening network services, meeting compliance standards, or performing deep security assessments on web servers and applications.

This skill provides comprehensive guidance and PowerShell scripts for hardening Windows endpoints using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE). It covers advanced features like Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) rules to block common attack techniques, Controlled Folder Access for ransomware protection, and Network Protection. Use this for deploying enterprise-grade, compliance-required security policies via Intune or Group Policy.

This comprehensive guide provides a structured, multi-stage workflow for containing active security breaches. It details both short-term and long-term strategies, including network segmentation, endpoint isolation, credential revocation, and evidence preservation. Use this process during confirmed intrusions, ransomware attacks, or lateral movement events to effectively stop adversary activity and secure critical assets before eradication.

Guides SOC teams through validating alerts, isolating networks and endpoints, preserving evidence, and disabling compromised accounts to rapidly contain an active breach while minimizing business impact.
