🔐 Authorized & lawful use only. This library includes offensive and dual-use techniques (e.g. red-team C2, phishing simulation, exploitation) intended for authorized penetration testing, security research, defense, and education. Only use them against systems you own or have explicit written permission to test, and comply with all applicable laws and rules of engagement. You are solely responsible for how you use these skills. See SECURITY.md and CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md.

Give any AI agent the security skills of a senior analyst

A junior analyst knows which Volatility3 plugin to run on a suspicious memory dump, which Sigma rules catch Kerberoasting, and how to scope a cloud breach across three providers. Your AI agent doesn't — unless you give it these skills.

This repo contains 817 structured cybersecurity skills spanning 29 security domains, each following the agentskills.io open standard. Every skill is mapped to six industry frameworks — MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATLAS, MITRE D3FEND, NIST AI RMF, and the MITRE Fight Fraud Framework (F3) — making this the only open-source skills library with unified cross-framework coverage. Clone it, point your agent at it, and your next security investigation gets expert-level guidance in seconds.

Six frameworks, one skill library

No other open-source skills library maps every skill to all of these frameworks. One skill, six compliance checkboxes.

Example — a single skill maps across all six:

🆕 MITRE Fight Fraud Framework (F3) — 94 fraud-relevant skills

The MITRE Fight Fraud Framework (F3) was released April 9, 2026 by MITRE's Center for Threat-Informed Defense (CTID), co-developed with JPMorganChase, Citigroup, Lloyds Banking Group, Standard Chartered, CrowdStrike, Verizon Business, FS-ISAC, and others. It is an ATT&CK-compatible TTP catalog for cyber-enabled financial fraud — filling the gap ATT&CK leaves after initial compromise.

F3 v1.1 adds two fraud-specific tactics that ATT&CK does not enumerate:

• Positioning (FA0001) — actions taken after access to collect/manipulate data and prepare the fraud (synthetic-identity seeding, account warming, beneficiary setup, SIM-swap pre-positioning, banking-session hijack).
• Monetization (FA0002) — converting stolen assets into usable funds (money-mule layering, APP fraud, crypto off-ramping, card cash-out, refund/chargeback abuse).

Fraud-specific techniques use F1XXX IDs (e.g. F1005.003 Add Beneficiary, F1025.003 Wire Transfer, F1007 Adversary-in-the-Browser); reused ATT&CK techniques keep their T1XXX IDs. Mappings live in each skill's mitre_f3: frontmatter block — all 123 F3 v1.1 technique IDs were verified against the upstream STIX bundle. See docs/mitre-f3-mapping.md for the schema.

MITRE ATT&CK v19.1 — 754/754 skills mapped

Every skill carries a mitre_attack frontmatter list validated against MITRE ATT&CK v19.1 (the latest release) using the official mitreattack-python library — 286 distinct techniques across all 15 Enterprise tactics, plus ICS and Mobile techniques where relevant. Zero revoked or deprecated IDs. v19.1's restructured Defense Evasion (now split into Stealth and Defense Impairment) is reflected below.

🌍 GARS-2026 — Global Agentic AI Readiness Survey

I'm running a global academic study measuring how ready security professionals, developers, and enterprise teams actually are for agentic AI — MCP servers, tool calling, governance, and human-in-the-loop workflows.

If you use this repo, your response would be a genuinely valuable data point.

Why this exists

The cybersecurity workforce gap hit 4.8 million unfilled roles globally in 2024 (ISC2). AI agents can help close that gap — but only if they have structured domain knowledge to work from. Today's agents can write code and search the web, but they lack the practitioner playbooks that turn a generic LLM into a capable security analyst.

Existing security tool repos give you wordlists, payloads, or exploit code. None of them give an AI agent the structured decision-making workfl
