Agent skill
performing-threat-emulation-with-atomic-red-team
Executes Atomic Red Team tests for MITRE ATT&CK technique validation using the atomic-operator Python framework. Loads test definitions from YAML atomics, runs attack simulations, and validates detection coverage. Use when testing SIEM detection rules, validating EDR coverage, or conducting purple team exercises.

Performing Threat Emulation with Atomic Red Team
Instructions
Use atomic-operator to execute Atomic Red Team tests and validate detection coverage against MITRE ATT&CK techniques.
from atomic_operator import AtomicOperator
operator = AtomicOperator()
# Run a specific technique test
operator.run(
technique="T1059.001", # PowerShell execution
atomics_path="./atomic-red-team/atomics",
)
Key workflow:
- Clone the atomic-red-team repository for test definitions
- Select ATT&CK techniques matching your detection rules
- Execute atomic tests using atomic-operator
- Check SIEM/EDR for corresponding alerts
- Document detection gaps and update rules
Examples
# Parse atomic test YAML definitions
import yaml
with open("atomics/T1059.001/T1059.001.yaml") as f:
tests = yaml.safe_load(f)
for test in tests.get("atomic_tests", []):
print(f"Test: {test['name']}")
print(f" Platforms: {test.get('supported_platforms', [])}")

mapping-mitre-attack-techniques
Maps observed adversary behaviors, security alerts, and detection rules to MITRE ATT&CK techniques and sub-techniques to quantify detection coverage and guide control prioritization. Use when building an ATT&CK-based coverage heatmap, tagging SIEM alerts with technique IDs, aligning security controls to adversary playbooks, or reporting threat exposure to executives. Activates for requests involving ATT&CK Navigator, Sigma rules, MITRE D3FEND, or coverage gap analysis.
