Using ATT&CK to map defenses and understand gaps The natural inclination of most security teams when looking at MITRE ATT&CK is to try and develop some kind of detection or prevention control for each technique in the enterprise matrix. While this isn’t a terrible idea, the nuances of ATT...
Common Knowledge) in 2013 as a solution to help teams achieve more effective cybersecurity by studying attacker methods. Released in 2015, the MITRE ATT&CK framework enables the sharing of adversarial behaviors across the attack lifecycle and provides a common taxonomy for threat analysis and ...
To utilize data on right-clicked technique in the url, parameters surrounded by double curly brackets can be added to the string. For example: using http://www.someurl.com/{{technique_attackID}}} as the url in the custom option would lead to http://www.someurl.com/T1098, if the ...

The Enterprise ATT&CK Matrix contains 14 tactics that apply to cyberattacks against enterprise infrastructure. The Enterprise Matrix can further be limited to 7 sub-Matrices. These sub-Matrices focus on pre-attack activities (PRE Matrix), attacks against specific OS (Windows, Linux, and macOS Matr...
What Are Tactics and Techniques in ATLAS?Tactics represent the strategic objectives of an adversary during an attack. Tactics outline the rationale, or the why behind a technique: the underlying purpose of executing a specific action. Tactics offer a useful framework for categorizing various ...
The second tactic in the Kubernetes attack matrix is Execution, which focuses on an attacker running code within a Kubernetes cluster to achieve his or her objectives. Malicious code could be executed by gaining access to a running pod, starting a new pod, or exploiting an application vulnerabili...
way to access this rich source of sensitive information — the input capture attack technique. Headlined by the infamous keylogger, input capture appears on the MITRE ATT&CK matrix as an “abuse of system features” technique and may be the epitome of an abuse of system feature attack tactic....
Each MITRE ATT&CK tactic represents a specific adversarial goal—something the attacker wants to accomplish at a given time. ATT&CK tactics correspond closely to stages or phases of a cyberattack. For example, ATT&CK tactics covered by the Enterprise Matrix include: ...
Where applicable, we will also describe how the StackRox Kubernetes Security Platform protects organizations from the threats that make up the Kubernetes attack matrix. Part two - Execution Initial Access The first vector, or category of attacker tactic, in the Kubernetes attack matrix is Initial Acc...
