Monitors Windows process creation events to flag Living Off The Land Binary abuse by matching Event ID 4688/Sysmon 1 logs against LOLBAS database entries, supporting threat hunting and SIEM rule creation for fileless attacks.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing application whitelisting using Windows AppLocker. It drastically restricts unauthorized software execution (malware, shadow IT) on Windows endpoints by enforcing strict application control policies. Use this method to meet critical compliance requirements (such as PCI DSS or NIST standards), block common attack vectors like LOLBins, and significantly reduce the overall attack surface in high-security environments.

This skill guides the implementation of full disk encryption using Microsoft BitLocker on Windows endpoints. It covers best practices for deploying encryption via GPO, Intune, and command line, ensuring data-at-rest protection. Use this when meeting compliance requirements (PCI, HIPAA) or securing mobile workstations against physical loss or theft.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to implementing advanced memory protection mechanisms on Windows endpoints. It covers critical techniques like Data Execution Prevention (DEP), Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), and Control Flow Guard (CFG). Use this when hardening systems against various memory corruption exploits, such as buffer overflows and ROP chains, to significantly boost overall security posture.

This guide details the implementation of advanced, phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication using Microsoft Entra ID. It covers configuring FIDO2 security keys, Windows Hello for Business, and passkey support via Microsoft Authenticator. Use this skill to eliminate reliance on passwords, mitigate credential stuffing attacks, and satisfy strict regulatory mandates for modern identity access management.

This skill provides a structured framework for implementing patch management in Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) environments. It addresses the critical balance between cybersecurity remediation and maintaining continuous operational safety and availability. Key components include risk-based patch prioritization, vendor compatibility testing, staged deployment through test environments, managing maintenance windows, and implementing compensating controls for unpatchable assets.

This guide details how to implement advanced SIEM correlation rules to detect sophisticated Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs). By chaining multiple event types—including Windows authentication events, process execution telemetry, and network connection logs—across hosts, users can surface complex attack sequences that are invisible to single-event detections. It utilizes Splunk SPL and Sigma rule formats for robust security posture enhancement.

Utilize Velociraptor, an advanced open-source platform, to collect, query, and monitor forensic artifacts across diverse endpoints (Windows, Linux, macOS). This skill enables incident response teams to perform large-scale, rapid digital forensic investigations by collecting critical data such as event logs, registry entries, prefetch files, and network metadata using VQL queries.

This skill covers performing comprehensive vulnerability assessments across diverse environments, including on-premises infrastructure, cloud VMs, and container registries. It leverages standard network protocols like SSH (Linux) and WMI (Windows), coupled with advanced cloud provider APIs for analyzing disk snapshots without requiring local endpoint agents. Ideal for security auditing and compliance checks.

This guide details how to use OpenVAS/Greenbone Vulnerability Management (GVM) to perform authenticated vulnerability scans. By utilizing valid credentials (SSH for Linux, SMB for Windows), scans can log into target systems, detecting deep local vulnerabilities, missing patches, and misconfigurations far beyond what unauthenticated scans can find. This is essential for comprehensive security assessments and compliance auditing.

This guide details authenticated (credentialed) vulnerability scanning, which uses valid system credentials (SSH keys, domain passwords, etc.) to log into target hosts. Unlike external scanning, credentialed methods allow deep inspection of installed patches, local configurations, registry keys, and system files across diverse platforms (Linux, Windows, Network Devices). This significantly increases vulnerability detection rates and reduces false positives for comprehensive security assessments.

LaZagne is an open-source post-exploitation tool utilized by red teams to harvest stored credentials from compromised endpoints. It supports Windows, Linux, and macOS, extracting passwords from browsers (Chrome, Edge), databases (MySQL, SQLite), system vaults (DPAPI, LSA), and various applications. It is crucial for privilege escalation and lateral movement during authorized security assessments.
