    data-modeling

    Use when the app needs to store or read data — records, a database, entities, CRUD, lists, "save/remember X", or per-user data with row-level security. This app's data layer is Rayfin's: you declare entities as TypeScript classes with decorators in rayfin/data/, register them in the schema, and read/write them through the typed rayfin-client. Covers: defining an @entity, field decorators, registering it, per-entity access with @role, owner-only row-level security, and the client query/mutation API. Triggers: data, database, model, entity, schema, table, record, CRUD, create, read, update, delete, list, store, save, persist, per-user, row-level security, RLS, access control, ownership.

Incident Response & Digital Forensics

When to Activate

  • Active security incident: triage, scoping, evidence acquisition, containment, eradication
  • Memory forensics — process injection, rootkit (incl. eBPF), credential-theft, network artifacts
  • Windows event-log / artifact timelining and super-timeline reconstruction
  • Anti-forensics detection — timestomping, log clearing, secure deletion, VSS recovery
  • Cloud incident response — AWS/Azure/GCP identity-plane attacks and forensic collection
  • Ransomware / extortion response — hypervisor (ESXi) encryption, backup destruction, fast-dwell intrusions
  • Verifying suspect DFIR tooling used as adversary persistence (Velociraptor CVE-2025-6264)
  • Repository-compromise post-mortem — a poisoned public repo / force-pushed malicious commit / deleted PR (recover via dangling commits + GH Archive + Wayback + Events API; see references/repo-compromise-forensics.md)

Quick Start

# 0. PRESERVE ORDER OF VOLATILITY — RAM before disk, never reboot a live host first.
#    Windows RAM:  winpmem_mini_x64.exe mem.raw        Linux RAM: AVML  ./avml mem.lime
# 1. Network-wide / endpoint triage (pick one):
python3 scripts/triage_collector.py --os auto --out /evidence --velociraptor-collector
#    Verify any Velociraptor already on-host is NOT adversary persistence (CVE-2025-6264):
python3 scripts/triage_collector.py --check-velociraptor   # flags <0.73.5 / unknown service

# 2. Memory forensics (Windows or Linux dump):
python3 scripts/vol3_triage.py -f /evidence/mem.raw --os windows --hunt-injection --dump-suspect
bash   scripts/ebpf_rootkit_hunt.sh   # Linux live/IR eBPF rootkit hunt (LinkPro-aware)

# 3. Windows event-log fast timeline + Sigma hunt:
bash scripts/evtx_hunt.sh -d /evidence/C/Windows/System32/winevt/Logs -o /evidence/timeline

# 4. Anti-forensics: timestomp / USN tamper detection from $MFT + $J:
python3 scripts/timestomp_detect.py --mft /evidence/mft.csv --usn /evidence/usn.csv

# 5. Cloud breach (identity-plane first):
python3 scripts/cloud_ir_collect.py aws --collect-cloudtrail --contain-key AKIA... --enforce-imdsv2

# 6. Ransomware on a Windows host (rapid scope, do BEFORE eradication):
powershell -ep bypass -File scripts/ransomware_triage.ps1 -OutDir C:\IR

OPSEC & Detection (summary)

IR is defensive; "OPSEC" below = handling rules that keep evidence admissible and avoid tipping off an adversary who may be monitoring (UNC3944 joins IR bridges in real time).
