Skill UI

An expert architect specializing in designing and optimizing service mesh using industry leaders like Istio and Linkerd. This skill provides deep knowledge of cloud-native networking patterns, enabling secure, reliable microservices communication. It covers advanced topics including zero-trust networking, mTLS configuration, sophisticated traffic management (e.g., canary and blue-green deployments), observability integration, and multi-cluster federation.

A comprehensive guide for designing and implementing production-grade microservices using gRPC in Go. Covers best practices for API contract standardization with Protobuf and Buf, securing service-to-service communication via mTLS, and integrating deep observability using OpenTelemetry interceptors. Ideal for building high-performance, reliable internal APIs.

Expert guide for building durable distributed systems with the Temporal Go SDK, covering deterministic workflow rules, mTLS worker configuration, advanced patterns, and testing/observability strategies for production workloads.

Leverage Certificate Transparency (CT) logs via crt.sh and Certstream to proactively monitor for suspicious SSL/TLS certificates. This skill helps detect lookalike domains, unauthorized certificate issuance, and potential phishing infrastructure targeting your organization before attacks launch. Includes querying logic and threat intelligence integration.

A powerful security tool for querying Certificate Transparency (CT) logs via crt.sh and pycrtsh. It detects potential security threats such as phishing domains, unauthorized certificate issuance, and shadow IT infrastructure. The tool specifically monitors new certificates for typosquatting and brand impersonation using advanced distance metrics, enabling proactive security threat detection.

This comprehensive guide details how to deploy and configure a resilient Command and Control (C2) infrastructure using the advanced Sliver framework. It covers setting up multi-protocol listeners (HTTPS, mTLS, DNS, WireGuard), implementing complex redirectors, domain fronting, and establishing operational security controls for professional red team engagements and advanced security assessments.

A comprehensive guide to simulating Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks using industry-standard tools like Bettercap, Ettercap, and mitmproxy. This technique is strictly for authorized penetration testing environments to assess cryptographic controls, validate TLS certificate pinning, and test network defense mechanisms against ARP/DNS spoofing and sniffing.

A comprehensive guide to deploying and configuring Suricata, a high-performance IDS/IPS. This skill covers setting up multi-threaded packet capture, integrating Emerging Threats rulesets, generating structured EVE JSON logs, and enabling deep protocol inspection (HTTP, TLS, DNS). It enables real-time threat detection and seamless SIEM integration for centralized security monitoring.

TLS 1.3 is the latest Transport Layer Security protocol, offering significant security and performance improvements over TLS 1.2. This guide details how to configure and validate TLS 1.3 on various environments, including Nginx, Apache, and Python applications. It covers advanced topics such as Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS), HSTS implementation, modern cipher suites, and best practices for securing modern web services.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to deploying a Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP) using the CSA v2.0 specification. It implements core zero trust principles by establishing a dynamic, identity-centric network boundary. The deployment covers Single Packet Authorization (SPA) and mutual TLS (mTLS) to ensure that resources are invisible and inaccessible until a user is fully authenticated and authorized.

This skill uses the Python azure-mgmt-storage SDK to perform comprehensive security audits on Azure Blob and ADLS storage accounts. It detects critical misconfigurations, including public access exposure, weak or long-lived SAS tokens, lack of encryption at rest, failure to enforce HTTPS, and outdated TLS versions. The output is a detailed, risk-scored report with remediation recommendations, essential for SOC analysts and security posture management.

This guide provides comprehensive steps to harden the Docker daemon configuration. It covers essential security controls like user namespace remapping, disabling inter-container communication (ICC), implementing TLS authentication, and adopting rootless mode. Implementing these measures significantly reduces the attack surface and mitigates risks associated with container breakouts and privilege escalation, aligning with CIS benchmarks.
