It helps you inspect Windows persistence in Run keys, services, scheduled tasks, Winlogon, drivers, and WMI, using a repeatable workflow with CSV exports, suspicious-entry review, and report-ready findings.

extracting-iocs-from-malware-samples skill guide for malware analysis: extract hashes, IPs, domains, URLs, host artifacts, and validation cues from samples for threat intel and detection.

extracting-config-from-agent-tesla-rat skill for Malware Analysis: extract Agent Tesla .NET config, SMTP/FTP/Telegram credentials, keylogger settings, and C2 endpoints with repeatable workflow guidance.

eradicating-malware-from-infected-systems is a cybersecurity incident response skill for removing malware, backdoors, and persistence mechanisms after containment. It includes workflow guidance, reference files, and scripts for Windows and Linux cleanup, credential rotation, root-cause remediation, and validation.

The detecting-stuxnet-style-attacks skill helps defenders detect Stuxnet-like OT and ICS intrusion patterns, including PLC logic tampering, spoofed sensor data, engineering workstation compromise, and IT-to-OT lateral movement. Use it for threat hunting, incident triage, and process-integrity monitoring with protocol, host, and process evidence.

detecting-ransomware-encryption-behavior helps defenders spot ransomware-style encryption using entropy analysis, file I/O monitoring, and behavioral heuristics. It is suited for incident response, SOC tuning, and red-team validation when you need to detect mass file changes, rename bursts, and suspicious process activity quickly.

detecting-process-injection-techniques helps analyze suspicious in-memory activity, validate EDR alerts, and identify process hollowing, APC injection, thread hijacking, reflective loading, and classic DLL injection for Security Audit and malware triage.

analyzing-packed-malware-with-upx-unpacker is a malware-analysis skill for identifying UPX-packed samples, handling modified UPX headers, and recovering the original executable for static review in Ghidra or IDA. Use it when `upx -d` fails or when you need a faster UPX packer check and unpacking workflow.

analyzing-memory-dumps-with-volatility is a Volatility 3 skill for memory forensics, malware triage, hidden processes, injection, network activity, and credentials in RAM dumps on Windows, Linux, or macOS. Use it when you need a repeatable analyzing-memory-dumps-with-volatility guide for incident response and malware analysis.

analyzing-malicious-pdf-with-peepdf is a static malware analysis skill for suspicious PDFs. Use peepdf, pdfid, and pdf-parser to triage phishing attachments, inspect objects, extract embedded JavaScript or shellcode, and review suspicious streams safely without execution.

analyzing-macro-malware-in-office-documents helps malware analysts inspect malicious VBA in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files, decode obfuscation, and extract IOCs, execution paths, and payload staging logic for phishing triage, incident response, and document malware analysis.
