Mapped every skill to NIST CSF 2.0 subcategory IDs (GV/ID/PR/DE/RS/RC functions) based on subdomain and content analysis. Restores 11 skills corrupted during prior rebase, re-enriching with ATLAS, D3FEND, NIST AI RMF, and CSF 2.0 fields. All 754 skills now carry structured mappings for all 5 security frameworks: - MITRE ATT&CK (in tags) - MITRE ATLAS v5.5 (atlas_techniques) - MITRE D3FEND v1.3 (d3fend_techniques) - NIST AI RMF 1.0 (nist_ai_rmf) - NIST CSF 2.0 (nist_csf)

# Detecting Mimikatz Execution Patterns
|
|
|
|
## When to Use
|
|
|
|
- When proactively hunting for indicators of detecting mimikatz execution patterns in the environment
|
|
- After threat intelligence indicates active campaigns using these techniques
|
|
- During incident response to scope compromise related to these techniques
|
|
- When EDR or SIEM alerts trigger on related indicators
|
|
- During periodic security assessments and purple team exercises
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- EDR platform with process and network telemetry (CrowdStrike, MDE, SentinelOne)
|
|
- SIEM with relevant log data ingested (Splunk, Elastic, Sentinel)
|
|
- Sysmon deployed with comprehensive configuration
|
|
- Windows Security Event Log forwarding enabled
|
|
- Threat intelligence feeds for IOC correlation
|
|
|
|
## Workflow
|
|
|
|
1. **Formulate Hypothesis**: Define a testable hypothesis based on threat intelligence or ATT&CK gap analysis.
|
|
2. **Identify Data Sources**: Determine which logs and telemetry are needed to validate or refute the hypothesis.
|
|
3. **Execute Queries**: Run detection queries against SIEM and EDR platforms to collect relevant events.
|
|
4. **Analyze Results**: Examine query results for anomalies, correlating across multiple data sources.
|
|
5. **Validate Findings**: Distinguish true positives from false positives through contextual analysis.
|
|
6. **Correlate Activity**: Link findings to broader attack chains and threat actor TTPs.
|
|
7. **Document and Report**: Record findings, update detection rules, and recommend response actions.

|
