What this skill does
Red Team Tactics Adversary simulation principles based on MITRE ATT&CK framework. --- 1. MITRE ATT&CK Phases Attack Lifecycle Phase Objectives Phase Objective ------- ----------- Recon Map attack surface Initial Access Get first foothold Execution Run code on target Persistence Survive reboots Privilege Escalation Get admin/root Defense Evasion Avoid detection Credential Access Harvest credentials Discovery Map internal network Lateral Movement Spread to other systems Collection Gather target data C2 Maintain command channel Exfiltration Extract data --- 2. Reconnaissance Principles Passive vs Active Type Trade-off ------ ----------- Passive No target contact, limited info Active Direct contact, more detection risk Information Targets Category Value ---------- ------- Technology stack Attack vector selection Employee info Social engineering Network ranges Scanning scope Third parties Supply chain attack --- 3. Initial Access Vectors Selection Criteria Vector When to Use -------- ------------- Phishing Human target, email access Public exploits Vulnerable services exposed Valid credentials Leaked or cracked Supply chain Third-party access --- 4. Privilege Escalation Principles Windows Targets Check Opportunity ------- ------------- Unquoted service paths Write to path Weak service permissions Modify service Token privileges Abuse SeDebug, etc. Stored credentials Harvest Linux Targets Check Opportunity ------- ------------- SUID binaries Execute as owner Sudo misconfiguration Command execution Kernel vulnerabilities Kernel exploits Cron jobs Writable scripts --- 5. Defense Evasion Principles Key Techniques Technique Purpose ----------- --------- LOLBins Use legitimate tools Obfuscation Hide malicious code Timestomping Hide file modifications Log clearing Remove evidence Operational Security Work during business hours Mimic legitimate traffic patterns Use encrypted channels Blend with normal behavior --- 6. …
