🗺️ 01 - DFIR

Parent: 000 - Global Index

Overview

Scope: Evidence level — the defensive / blue-team side of the vault.

Focus: Investigating what already happened: acquiring evidence, preparing it for analysis, and reconstructing attacker activity from it.

This domain covers digital forensics and incident response work such as HTB Sherlocks. Where the offensive categories are organized by what the attacker wanted (MITRE ATT&CK tactics), the secondary categories here are organized by what evidence was examined, named after the artifact types of MITRE D3FEND’s Digital Artifact Ontology. A write-up usually carries both: a DFIR secondary for the evidence, and ATT&CK secondaries for the attacker behavior it uncovered.
