Neat blog on RDP tradecraft, includes examples, practical recommendations on hardening, detection ideas etc.
Having convertible detection content is great, no doubt. What I think is underrated is blueteam-focused tradecraft intel. Red teams share it all the time, we should too. A threat group recently showed creativity with a known technique. Here's how it worked cloud.google.com/blog/topics…

A sister team of mine is hiring. They do hard core detection engineering. You will be analyzing things you won't see elsewhere and writing a variety of content to detect it. Super technical role alongside some great folk.
I'm excited to announce that I'm hiring two Detection Engineers for the Mandiant Detection Engineering Team! Come build detections at a global scale for cutting edge threats on an amazing team. Apply here google.com/about/careers/app… #DetectionEngineering #Mandiant #Detection

I've just released the next edition of the On Detection series. I investigate why detection rules based on Process Creation are often brittle or easily bypassed. I also provide a framework for discerning when it is appropriate and when it isn't. posts.specterops.io/on-detec…
