THANK YOU ALL!

After more than a decade in academia, teaching thousands of students and professionals, I’ve decided to return to the world of consulting. I’m deeply grateful to my family for their unwavering support and to everyone who has helped me grow into the person I am today. #DFIR

I want to thank @brettshavers.bsky.social for the opportunity taking his "DF/IR Investigative Mindset" course! This is an amazing course for everyone! Whether you're a vetran or just starting your #DFIR career. I can't recommend it enough.

Brett, thank you so much πŸ™πŸ»

these are related to the idea that there is a way to run an executable disguised as a .txt / .pdf / .lol or whatever. I just have not found the time to document it yet.

I will be sharing all the content, which are basically the labs, files (simple tools/scripts/etc), and few presentations for anyone who would like to use in their classroom. So keep an eye out for this.

If you have the resources, maybe through an Elastic or Splunk server and use that for your investigations/hunting/etc. That will be something for you to decide/do.

I did not want to use a SIEM (Elastic/Splunk/etc) to simulate situations when you don't have such a capability, but you will still need to do hunting/investigations with limited and/or FREE tools. So we installed Sysmon on all systems and had a Velociraptor server with agents.

Threat Simulation and Hunting From Shells to Thrones - Think Like an Adversary. Hunt as a Defender. Protect the Kingdom.

Last semester I created a course to help students start learning about Threat Simulation & Hunting. I used GOAD for the testing environement. So shoutout to @M4yFly for creating GOAD. Every lab was themed around the Game of Thrones series; students liked it.
