Minsek IT Solutions believes an informed organisation is a safer organisation. Explore the MITRE ATT&CK framework, free learning platforms, and essential cybersecurity glossary — all curated to help you understand and defend against modern threats.
MITRE ATT&CK (Adversarial Tactics, Techniques & Common Knowledge) is a globally accessible, free knowledge base of adversary tactics and techniques built on real-world observations. It is used by security teams, governments, and organisations worldwide to understand how attackers operate and build stronger defences.
ATT&CK organises adversary behaviour into 14 tactical categories representing the phases of an attack lifecycle. Understanding each tactic helps your organisation anticipate, detect, and respond to threats before they cause damage.
Adversaries gather information to plan future operations — scanning networks, researching employees, and identifying vulnerabilities before launching an attack.
Adversaries establish resources to support operations — creating malware, acquiring domains, setting up infrastructure, or compromising third-party accounts for staging.
Adversaries gain a foothold inside your network — commonly through phishing emails, exploiting public-facing applications, or abusing trusted relationships with third parties.
Adversaries run malicious code on local or remote systems — using scripting engines, command-line interpreters, or exploiting user interaction to trigger payloads.
Adversaries maintain their foothold across restarts, credential changes, and interruptions — ensuring continued access even after initial detection attempts.
Adversaries gain higher-level permissions on a system or network — moving from standard user access to administrator or domain-level control to expand their reach.
Adversaries avoid detection throughout the attack — disabling security tools, obfuscating malicious code, deleting logs, and masquerading as legitimate processes.
Adversaries steal credentials like usernames and passwords — through keylogging, credential dumping, brute force attacks, and exploiting password management weaknesses.
Adversaries explore the environment to understand what they have access to — mapping networks, enumerating accounts, and identifying high-value targets for further exploitation.
Adversaries move through your environment to reach their target — pivoting from one system to another using stolen credentials, remote services, or exploited trust relationships.
Adversaries gather data of interest before exfiltration — capturing files, emails, screen recordings, audio, and clipboard content from compromised systems.
Adversaries communicate with compromised systems to issue commands — using encrypted channels, legitimate web services, and custom protocols to avoid detection.
Adversaries steal your data — transferring it out of your network through encrypted tunnels, cloud storage, physical media, or disguising it within normal traffic.
Adversaries manipulate, interrupt, or destroy systems and data — deploying ransomware, wiping disks, defacing websites, or disrupting operational technology systems.
The complete interactive matrix maps all 900+ techniques across every tactic — filterable by platform, threat group, and software. It is the most comprehensive free adversary knowledge base available.
