ctf-malware
Provides malware analysis and network traffic techniques for CTF challenges. Use when analyzing obfuscated scripts, malicious packages, custom crypto protocols, C2 traffic, PE/.NET binaries, RC4/AES encrypted communications, YARA rules, shellcode analysis, memory forensics for malware (Volatility malfind, process injection detection), anti-analysis techniques (VM/sandbox detection, timing evasion, API hashing, process injection, environment checks), or extracting malware configurations and indicators of compromise.
analyzing-command-and-control-communication
Analyzes malware command-and-control (C2) communication protocols to understand beacon patterns, command structures, data encoding, and infrastructure. Covers HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, and custom protocol C2 analysis for detection development and threat intelligence. Activates for requests involving C2 analysis, beacon detection, C2 protocol reverse engineering, or command-and-control infrastructure mapping.
analyzing-network-traffic-for-incidents
Analyzes network traffic captures and flow data to identify adversary activity during security incidents, including command-and-control communications, lateral movement, data exfiltration, and exploitation attempts. Uses Wireshark, Zeek, and NetFlow analysis techniques. Activates for requests involving network traffic analysis, packet capture investigation, PCAP analysis, network forensics, C2 traffic detection, or exfiltration detection.
analyzing-network-covert-channels-in-malware
Detect and analyze covert communication channels used by malware including DNS tunneling, ICMP exfiltration, steganographic HTTP, and protocol abuse for C2 and data exfiltration.
analyzing-network-traffic-with-wireshark
Captures and analyzes network packet data using Wireshark and tshark to identify malicious traffic patterns, diagnose protocol issues, extract artifacts, and support incident response investigations on authorized network segments.
