Mandiant – Creative Red Teaming

Mandiant – Creative Red Teaming
Course Overview

Mandiant red teams have conducted hundreds of covert red team operations. This course draws on that knowledge to help learners improve their ability to prevent, detect, and respond to threats in an enterprise network. Learners will better understand advanced threat actor behavior that Mandiant experts have observed through incident response investigations. Learners will also see how Mandiant red teams refine advanced attacker tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) for use by red teams in their attempts to emulate advanced threat actors. Learners will develop the ability to think like an attacker and creatively use these TTPs to accomplish response goals while avoiding detection. Mandiant red team leads conduct this fast-paced technical course with presentations and scenario-based labs based on frontline expertise and intelligence-based security research. Learners receive hands-on experience conducting covert cyber attack simulations that mimic real-world threat actors. They will learn how to bypass advanced network segmentation, multi-factor authentication and application whitelisting, abuse web applications, escalate privileges and steal data while circumventing detection methods.

Course Syllabus & Modules

6 Topics
01Identify, fingerprint and compromise a target with custom-crafted payloads while bypassing antivirus (AV) detection
02Deploy creative tactics—from older techniques to newer ones— to maintain access to any compromised machine
03Understand the tools and methods attackers use to exploit the lowest-level user privileges to gain higher, administrative privileges and move laterally throughout a network while avoiding security alerts
04Avoid and bypass various challenges such as application whitelisting, encryption, multi-factor authentication, sandboxes and more
