• Analyze malware samples, attack techniques, and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)
• Reconstruct attack timelines and determine initial compromise vectors and attack progression
• Preserve evidence integrity and maintain proper chain of custody for legal proceedings

Threat Analysis & Attribution

• Analyze threat intelligence and correlate indicators of compromise (IOCs) with ongoing investigations
• Conduct threat hunting activities to identify advanced persistent threats and insider threats
• Perform behavioral analysis and pattern recognition to identify sophisticated attack campaigns
• Document attack methodologies, tools used, and provide attribution assessments
• Collaborate with law enforcement and external threat intelligence sources when appropriate
