What is MITRE ATT&CK?
ATT&CK stands for adversarial tactics techniques and common knowledge.
The MITRE ATT&CK framework is a comprehensive matrix of tactics and techniques used by threat hunters, red teamers, and defenders to help with identifying attack types and defining risk.
As a knowledge base of real cyber attack tactics, techniques and procedures, MITRE ATT&CK brings structure to the understanding of adversarial behavior.
Our labs are mapped against tactics and techniques in the ATT&CK framework. As you complete content, our ATT&CK heat map will show you where your coverage is strong and/or where you could make improvements.
Find out more on MITRE here.
How do I Access my Personal View of the dashboard?
You can access your personal view of the MITRE ATT&CK framework via the main navigation menu by selecting MITRE ATT&CK and then Personal MITRE ATT&CK.
Your personal view shows you how your cyber capability skills are mapped against the Framework. This is based on which labs you have completed on our platform.
You can use this view to strategically upskill.
Heat-map feature
The heat-map will indicate completed, in-progress or not-started status against techniques. There will also be an indication of where we have no labs on the platform mapped against a technique. You'll find a key in the bottom left corner.
Here's a short video of what to expect:
It's interactive
You can find out more information on coverage by selecting the specific technique you're interested in.
This will display the relevant information in a side-panel, including the labs mapped against the technique and/or sub technique, as well as your progress against each lab. You'll be able to jump straight through to the labs from here.
The dashboard also has a number of accessibility features. You're able to:
- Scroll vertically and horizontally.
- Select and drag content/the framework around using the pan button (icon that looks like a hand)
- Zoom in and out enabling you to find the techniques or sub-techniques of interest (plus and minus icons)
- Use fit-to-screen (arrows facing in opposite directions): this fits all the columns into view on desktop devices.
Hovering over the action buttons depicted above will show you what keyboard shortcuts you can use to trigger each action.
Notes: The Framework Dashboards are screen-reader friendly. If you experience any issues interacting with the Framework using your screen reader, please report the details to our customer support team. We are passionate about continuously improving the accessibility of our platform and features. If you're accessing the Framework Dashboards on a mobile device, you will not have the pan and zoom functionality available via the toolbar or shortcuts. You can still pan and zoom in and out by touching your screen (dragging or pinching). |
Coverage calculations
- Not started: no labs have been completed in the technique or any of the technique's sub-techniques
- In progress: at least one lab is complete in the technique or sub-techniques but there is at least one or more sub-techniques incomplete
- Completed: All labs are complete in the technique (including sub-techniques if applicable).
- No labs mapped: We don't currently have any content on our platform mapped against the technique (and/or sub-techniques)
