mukul975 cb8d79e068 Map all 754 skills to MITRE ATT&CK v19.1

- Add validated mitre_attack frontmatter to all 754 skills (286 distinct
  techniques), verified against MITRE ATT&CK v19.1 via the official
  mitreattack-python library: 0 revoked, deprecated, or invalid IDs
- Curate precise per-skill technique IDs for forensics, malware-analysis,
  threat-intel, and red-team skills (e.g. DCSync -> T1003.006,
  Kerberoasting -> T1558.003, Pass-the-Ticket -> T1550.003)
- Reconcile v19.1 tactic restructuring: Defense Evasion split into
  Stealth (TA0005) and Defense Impairment (TA0112); revoked T1562.*
  family and T1070.001/.002 remapped to active equivalents (T1685.*)
- Normalize word-split tags across 35 skills (remove filename-derived
  stopword tags, add semantic cybersecurity tags)
- Add api-reference.md for 3 skills that were missing it
- Update README ATT&CK section with accurate v19.1 tactic distribution

Hunting for Startup Folder Persistence

Overview

Attackers use Windows startup folders for persistence (MITRE ATT&CK T1547.001 — Boot or Logon Autostart Execution: Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder). Files placed in %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup or C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup execute automatically at user logon. This skill scans startup directories for suspicious files, monitors for real-time changes using Python watchdog, and analyzes file metadata to detect persistence implants.

When to Use

When investigating security incidents that require hunting for startup folder persistence
When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques

Prerequisites

Python 3.9+ with watchdog, pefile (optional for PE analysis)
Access to Windows startup folders (user and all-users)
Windows Event Logs for Event ID 4663 correlation (optional)

Steps

Enumerate all files in user and system startup directories
Analyze file types, creation timestamps, and digital signatures
Flag suspicious file extensions (.bat, .vbs, .ps1, .lnk, .exe)
Check for recently created files (< 7 days) as potential implants
Monitor startup folders in real-time using watchdog FileSystemEventHandler
Correlate with known legitimate startup entries
Generate threat hunting report with T1547.001 MITRE mapping

Expected Output

JSON report listing all startup folder contents with risk scores, file metadata, and suspicious indicators
Real-time monitoring alerts for new file creation in startup directories
