Publisher's Synopsis
When hackers evolve, defenders must dominate.
You've mastered the fundamentals from Volume I-now it's time to ascend to elite status
In today's cyber battlefield, reactive security is a losing game. While adversaries weaponize AI, exploit zero-days, and operate entirely in memory, most blue teams are still playing catch-up with yesterday's threats. The Blue Team Field Manual Volume II shatters this paradigm, transforming you from a reactive responder into a proactive threat hunter who stays three steps ahead of even the most sophisticated attackers.
The Blue Team Field Manual Volume II picks up where Volume I left off, catapulting you from competent defender to apex predator in the cyber hunt-it's your tactical playbook for mastering the advanced techniques that separate elite defenders from the rest. From nation-state actors to ransomware gangs, from supply chain compromises to fileless malware, this manual gives you the weapons-grade knowledge to detect, analyze, and neutralize threats that slip past traditional defenses.
What You'll Master Beyond Volume I: - Advanced Memory Forensics - Hunt rootkits and fileless malware hiding in RAM with surgical precision
- Enterprise-Scale Detection Engineering - Build Sigma rules and SIEM queries that catch what others miss
- Active Directory Attack Detection - Stop Kerberos abuse, golden tickets, and lateral movement dead in their tracks
- Cloud Security Operations - Secure multi-cloud environments, containers, and serverless architectures
- Apple Enterprise Security - Protect iOS/macOS fleets with specialized MDM forensics and threat hunting
- Hypothesis-Driven Threat Hunting - Proactively hunt APTs using intelligence-driven methodologies

- Tactical Incident Response - Execute containment strategies for ransomware, nation-states, and supply chain attacks
- Security Automation at Scale - Deploy SOAR playbooks, detection-as-code, and ML-powered defenses
Every technique comes with real commands, actual code, and battle-tested procedures you can implement immediately. No theory, no fluff-just the advanced tradecraft used by top-tier security teams defending Fortune 500 enterprises and critical infrastructure.
