This skill guides SOC analysts and detection engineers on how to correlate complex, multi-stage attacks within the IBM QRadar SIEM platform. It covers advanced usage of AQL (Ariel Query Language) for deep event investigation, building custom correlation rules (Building Blocks and Offenses), and cross-source data correlation (e.g., auth failures with network flows). It is essential for reducing false positives and improving threat detection accuracy.

A comprehensive guide to deploying and configuring osquery across diverse endpoints (Windows, macOS, Linux). This tool allows security teams to gather deep, SQL-based insights into endpoint state, including running processes, network connections, system configuration, and installed software. It is essential for threat hunting, compliance auditing, and building centralized fleet visibility.

Tailscale provides a WireGuard-based, zero-trust mesh VPN solution. It establishes end-to-end encrypted, peer-to-peer connections using identity-aware controls and granular Access Control Lists (ACLs). Ideal for modernizing network security, replacing traditional VPNs, and ensuring compliant, identity-gated access across diverse environments (Cloud, On-Prem).

A comprehensive guide for security professionals on detecting and preventing ARP spoofing and poisoning attacks. The skill covers multiple layers of defense, including implementing Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI) on managed switches, utilizing ARPWatch for continuous monitoring, performing deep packet inspection with Wireshark, and developing custom Python scripts for real-time anomaly detection. Essential for mitigating Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks at Layer 2.

This skill monitors critical OT historian servers (such as OSIsoft PI and Ignition) located at the IT/OT boundary. It is designed to detect sophisticated cyber threats, including unauthorized access attempts, data manipulation, suspicious query patterns, and indicators of lateral movement between enterprise and control networks. Use it to validate data integrity and respond to potential ICS security incidents.

This skill provides methods and tools for detecting sophisticated cyber attacks targeting Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS). It focuses on detecting anomalies like unauthorized command injection, Man-in-the-Middle attacks on industrial protocols (Modbus, DNP3), and data manipulation, which traditional IT security tools often miss. Usage involves establishing deterministic communication baselines and monitoring network traffic for deviations.

This script performs statistical analysis on Zeek connection logs (conn.log) to detect Command and Control (C2) beaconing patterns. It leverages the ZAT library to load data into Pandas DataFrames, calculates inter-arrival time statistics, and flags connections with low standard deviation relative to the mean. This technique is crucial for network threat hunting and security incident investigation when identifying malicious, periodic callbacks.

A comprehensive guide for security teams on detecting and responding to unauthorized crypto mining operations in cloud environments (AWS, Azure). It details a multi-layered approach, utilizing cost anomaly detection, compute utilization monitoring, GuardDuty findings, and network flow log analysis (VPC/KQL) to identify resource hijacking attempts and suspicious activity across EC2, ECS, and EKS workloads.

A comprehensive guide and framework for detecting attacker lateral movement within enterprise networks. It details the use of network flow analysis (Zeek), authentication log review (Windows Event Logs, Kerberos), and dedicated SIEM correlation rules (Splunk, Elastic) to identify techniques like Pass-the-Hash and RDP hopping. Ideal for threat hunters and security engineers building detection pipelines.

This skill focuses on advanced threat detection techniques used to identify the abuse of legitimate Windows binaries (LOLBins) for malicious purposes. It requires monitoring process creation, command-line arguments, and network activity to pinpoint fileless and living-off-the-land attacks. Ideal for building SIEM/EDR detection rules, threat hunting, and hardening endpoint security policies.

This tool provides a comprehensive security audit framework for Azure Storage accounts. It systematically detects critical misconfigurations, such as publicly accessible blob containers, weak encryption settings, overly permissive network access rules, and missing logging. Use it when performing compliance checks, responding to security incidents, or establishing storage security baselines in Azure environments.

A comprehensive skill designed for advanced security analysis, detecting malicious behaviors across mobile applications (Android/iOS). It performs multi-layered analysis, including static indicator checks (permissions, manifest), dynamic instrumentation via Frida, network traffic monitoring (C2 communication, exfiltration), and automated scanning (MobSF). Use this when investigating suspicious apps, detecting trojans, or performing malware triage.
