ATT&CK map: techniques and detection coverage

Browse the MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise matrix, see what each technique looks like in logs and what stops it, mark your detection coverage, export it as a Navigator layer and walk through attack chains.

Enterprise matrix

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise v2015 tactics101 techniques5 attack chainsChains and sample profile: Simulation

Each column is a tactic: the adversary's goal at that stage. Each cell is a technique: one way to reach that goal. Select a cell to see what the adversary achieves, how it shows up in your logs and which ATT&CK mitigations apply. A technique that serves several goals appears in every column it belongs to, as in ATT&CK itself.

ReconnaissanceTA0043 · 4

The adversary gathers information about you before touching your systems.

Resource DevelopmentTA0042 · 4

The adversary sets up domains, accounts and tools for the operation.

Initial AccessTA0001 · 9

The adversary gets a first foothold inside your network or tenant.

ExecutionTA0002 · 9

The adversary runs their own code or commands on a system.

PersistenceTA0003 · 12

The adversary keeps access across reboots, password changes and clean-up.

Privilege EscalationTA0004 · 12

The adversary gains higher permissions, such as local administrator or domain admin.

StealthTA0005 · 10

The adversary hides their activity so it looks like normal behaviour.

Defense ImpairmentTA0112 · 8

The adversary breaks or blinds security tools and logging so defenders cannot see or trust what happens.

Credential AccessTA0006 · 14

The adversary steals account names, passwords, hashes, tickets and tokens.

DiscoveryTA0007 · 5

From inside, the adversary learns your accounts, hosts, services and trust paths.

Lateral MovementTA0008 · 9

The adversary moves from the first machine to others that matter more.

CollectionTA0009 · 7

The adversary gathers the data they came for: mail, files, databases, cloud storage.

Command and ControlTA0011 · 7

The adversary talks to compromised systems to steer them, usually disguised as normal traffic.

ExfiltrationTA0010 · 6

The adversary takes the collected data out of your environment.

ImpactTA0040 · 6

The adversary disrupts, destroys, encrypts or manipulates systems and data, or steals money.

How to use this map

1. Learn the language

ATT&CK names what adversaries do in a shared vocabulary. When an alert, a report or a vendor says T1003.001, everyone means the same thing: reading LSASS memory for credentials.

2. Mark what you can see

Go through the cells with the people who run your logging and EDR. For each technique ask: do we collect the data in “How it shows up in logs”, and does a rule or analyst look at it? Partial means the data exists but nobody watches it, or only some hosts send it.

3. Close the gaps that matter

The gap list puts techniques that real intrusion chains pass through first. Walk the chains to see where your coverage would first notice an attack, and invest where one control breaks several chains.

4. Take it with you

Export your marks as JSON to keep them, or as an ATT&CK Navigator layer to open in MITRE's Navigator and share with your team. Everything stays in this browser until you export it.
