Core Skills

What You Will Learn

A hybrid curriculum that teaches you to attack to test defenses, and defend based on real-world attack patterns.

Adversary Emulation

Simulating specific threat actors (APTs) using frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK to test organizational resilience.

Detection Engineering

Writing custom detection rules (Sigma, YARA, Snort) based on the techniques used during emulation.

Automated BAS

Deploying automated tools like Caldera and Atomic Red Team to continuously validate security controls.

Threat Intel Ops

Operationalizing CTI. Taking intel reports and converting them into actionable emulation plans.

Security Architecture

Designing defensive layers (Zero Trust, Segmentation) that are resilient against modern Red Team attacks.

Risk & Vulnerability

Prioritizing patching based on exploitability and business impact, moving beyond simple CVSS scores.

AD Attack & Defend

Executing Kerberoasting to understand it, then implementing Honeytokens and GPO hardening to stop it.

Cloud Purple Teaming

Simulating cloud breaches on AWS/Azure and tuning CloudTrail/Sentinel alerts for rapid detection.

AI Strategic Defense

Leveraging AI to predict attacker next moves and automate the feedback loop between Red and Blue teams.

Future of Purple Teaming

Live Lab Engagement

Practical Experience:
2-Month Purple Team Lab

Run a continuous feedback loop. Launch specific attacks (Ransomware, APT33), measure SOC response time, tune detection rules, and re-run attacks to verify improvements.

Portfolio Blueprints

Build Industry-Based Projects

Execute full-spectrum engagements: Attack, Detect, Improve.

Full-Spectrum Ransomware Emulation

Execute a ransomware attack using a custom C2. Then, switch roles to investigate the alerts in Splunk. Identify the gaps in detection, write new Sigma rules to catch the specific behavior, and re-run the attack to verify the defense.

Unified Workflow:
Attack Execution Log Analysis Rule Creation Validation

Zero-Day Defense Engineering

Simulate a "Zero-Day" exploit behavior (e.g., unexpected parent-child process spawning). Without a signature, you must rely on behavioral anomalies. Configure Sysmon to capture the relevant data and build a heuristic detection rule in the SIEM.

Unified Workflow:
Behavior Simulation Sysmon Config Heuristic Analysis Detection Tuning

Cloud Breach & Response

Launch an attack on an AWS environment (S3 exfiltration + IAM persistence). Then, investigate CloudTrail logs to trace the attacker's steps. Implement automated remediation scripts (Lambda) to revoke keys and isolate buckets upon detection.

Unified Workflow:
Cloud Exploitation CloudTrail Forensics Automated Response Hardening

Active Directory Hardening

Perform Kerberoasting and LLMNR poisoning against a lab domain. Identify the weak configurations allowing this. Deploy Honeytokens (fake admin accounts) and configure Group Policy (GPO) to disable LLMNR and enforce strong encryption, effectively neutralizing the attack.

Unified Workflow:
AD Attacks Misconfiguration Audit Deception (Honeytokens) GPO Hardening
