This skill guides security analysts in detecting data staging activities, a critical precursor to data exfiltration. It monitors for the use of archiving tools (7-Zip, RAR), unusual file consolidation patterns, and suspicious writes to temporary or hidden directories using EDR and process telemetry. Essential for proactive threat hunting and improving detection coverage for T1074 techniques.

This guide details proactive threat hunting techniques focused on detecting supply chain compromises. Use it when investigating trojanized software updates, compromised dependencies (npm/PyPI), or tampered build artifacts. It outlines a structured workflow using EDR/SIEM data (CrowdStrike, Splunk) to identify hidden threats and scope the impact of sophisticated attacks.

This guide details the implementation of robust API abuse detection mechanisms. It covers advanced rate limiting techniques, such as the Token Bucket and Sliding Window algorithms, to defend APIs against DDoS attacks, brute force attempts, and credential stuffing. It emphasizes using distributed stores like Redis for accurate, scalable, and adaptive security controls in an API gateway context.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to deploying AWS Security Hub for centralized Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM). It covers aggregating security findings from multiple sources (GuardDuty, Inspector, Macie, and third-party tools), enabling compliance checks against standards like CIS and PCI-DSS, and automating remediation workflows across multi-account AWS organizations. Ideal for security teams needing continuous compliance monitoring and robust governance.

A comprehensive guide to configuring multi-layered DDoS protection using Cloudflare. This skill covers mitigating volumetric (L3/4) and application-layer (L7) attacks by setting up managed rulesets, Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules, rate limiting, and Bot Management. Ideal for strengthening security architecture and meeting compliance standards.

This skill provides comprehensive knowledge on using JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for secure authentication and authorization. It covers implementing various cryptographic signing algorithms (such as HS256, RS256, ES256, and EdDSA), validating signatures, enforcing claim constraints (like expiration time), and implementing robust defenses against common JWT vulnerabilities, including algorithm confusion and the 'none' algorithm attack. Ideal for building secure, scalable web APIs.

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.

A comprehensive playbook designed for Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) environments. It provides structured, phased incident response procedures aligned with SANS PICERL, IEC 62443, and NIST standards. It specifically addresses safety-critical challenges, process availability, and the unique coordination required between IT Security, OT Engineering, and Plant Operations during cyber incidents, such as ransomware attacks.

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.

A comprehensive guide and workflow for digital forensic investigators to analyze ransomware artifacts. This process involves preserving volatile evidence (memory dumps), identifying the ransomware variant from file extensions and ransom notes, establishing the attack timeline using Prefetch and Event Logs, and extracting critical Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) such as Bitcoin addresses and Tor sites. Essential for incident response and recovery planning.

This comprehensive guide provides essential security protocols for building robust Laravel applications. It covers best practices for authentication (Sanctum, Passport), authorization (Policies), input validation, and protecting against common vulnerabilities like CSRF, XSS, and SQL injection. Key topics include secure file uploads, rate limiting, environment variable management, and implementing robust middleware.

This guide provides a comprehensive workflow for Test-Driven Development (TDD) within Laravel applications. It covers best practices for writing unit, feature, and integration tests using modern tools like Pest and PHPUnit. Learn how to manage database states, mock external services, and achieve high code coverage efficiently.
