Implementing Ransomware Kill Switch Detection
Detects and exploits ransomware kill switch mechanisms including mutex-based execution guards, domain-based kill switches, and registry-based termination checks. Implements proactive mutex vaccination and kill switch domain monitoring to prevent ransomware from executing. Activates for requests involving ransomware kill switch analysis, mutex vaccination, WannaCry-style domain kill switches, or malware execution guard detection.
Implementing Ransomware Backup Strategy
Designs and implements a ransomware-resilient backup strategy following the 3-2-1-1-0 methodology (3 copies, 2 media types, 1 offsite, 1 immutable/air-gapped, 0 errors on restore verification). Configures backup schedules aligned to RPO/RTO requirements, implements backup credential isolation to prevent ransomware from compromising backup infrastructure, and establishes automated restore testing. Activates for requests involving ransomware backup planning, backup resilience, air-gapped backup design, or backup recovery point objective configuration.
Implementing Purdue Model Network Segmentation
Implement network segmentation based on the Purdue Enterprise Reference Architecture (PERA) model to separate industrial control system networks into hierarchical security zones from Level 0 physical process through Level 5 enterprise, enforcing strict traffic control between OT and IT domains.
Implementing Proofpoint Email Security Gateway
Deploy and configure Proofpoint Email Protection as a secure email gateway to detect and block phishing, malware, BEC, and spam before messages reach user inboxes.
Implementing Privileged Session Monitoring
Implements privileged session monitoring and recording using Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions, focusing on CyberArk Privileged Session Manager (PSM) and open-source alternatives. Covers session recording configuration, keystroke logging, real-time monitoring, risk-based session analysis, and compliance audit trail generation. Activates for requests involving privileged session recording, PAM session monitoring, CyberArk PSM configuration, administrator activity monitoring, or compliance session auditing.
Implementing Privileged Access Management With Cyberark
Deploy CyberArk Privileged Access Management to discover, vault, rotate, and monitor privileged credentials across enterprise infrastructure. This skill covers vault architecture, session isolation, c
Implementing Policy As Code With Open Policy Agent
This skill covers implementing Open Policy Agent (OPA) and Gatekeeper for policy-as-code enforcement in Kubernetes and CI/CD pipelines. It addresses writing Rego policies, deploying OPA Gatekeeper as a Kubernetes admission controller, testing policies in development, and integrating policy evaluation into deployment pipelines.
Implementing Pod Security Admission Controller
Implement Kubernetes Pod Security Admission to enforce baseline and restricted security profiles at namespace level using built-in admission controller.
Implementing Pci Dss Compliance Controls
PCI DSS 4.0.1 establishes 12 requirements across 6 control objectives for organizations that store, process, or transmit cardholder data. With PCI DSS 3.2.1 retiring April 2024 and 51 new requirements
Implementing Patch Management For Ot Systems
This skill covers implementing a structured patch management program for OT/ICS environments where traditional IT patching approaches can cause process disruption or safety hazards. It addresses vendor compatibility testing, risk-based patch prioritization, staged deployment through test environments, maintenance window coordination, rollback procedures, and compensating controls when patches cannot be applied due to operational constraints or vendor restrictions.
Implementing Passwordless Auth With Microsoft Entra
Implements passwordless authentication using Microsoft Entra ID with FIDO2 security keys, Windows Hello for Business, Microsoft Authenticator passkeys, and certificate-based authentication to eliminate password-based attacks.
