Training — Live Attack Simulation

Hashmu
Attack Lab

Hashmu
Attack Lab

A proprietary live attack simulation lab built on a real Azure tenant — forensic artifacts planted across every phase of the Cyber Kill Chain. Your security team investigates a simulated breach, follows the evidence trail, and documents their findings exactly as they would in a live incident. Real tools. Real logs. Real investigation skills.

Lab architecture

The full Cyber Kill Chain — simulated

Forensic artifacts are planted across all seven Kill Chain phases. Participants must follow the evidence trail sequentially — uncovering each phase through real KQL investigation in a live Azure environment.

01

Recon

Attacker enumeration and external scanning artifacts

02

Weaponize

Payload construction and delivery mechanism artifacts

03

Delivery

Phishing indicators and initial access vector evidence

04

Exploit

Vulnerability exploitation and initial compromise artifacts

05

Install

Malware persistence mechanisms and registry artifacts

06

C2

Command and control beaconing and network indicators

07

Actions

Lateral movement, exfiltration, and objective artifacts

What participants do

Three objectives. One complete investigation.

Three objectives. One complete investigation.

Every participant works through the same three-phase structure — building the investigation skills used in a real enterprise IR engagement.

01

Analyze logs using real hands-on skills

Participants access the live Azure environment and work through real log sources — Entra ID sign-in logs, audit logs, endpoint telemetry, and Microsoft Sentinel data. Every query and every pivot is done hands-on in the actual platform, not a simulation of it.

02

Follow the evidence trail

Artifacts are connected across Kill Chain phases — a finding in one phase leads to the next. Participants must reconstruct the attacker timeline chronologically and identify what was accessed, when, and how. The investigation is non-linear by design.

03

Document the investigation report

On completion, each participant produces a structured investigation analysis report — covering attacker timeline, evidence per Kill Chain phase, IOCs identified, and remediation recommendations. The same report format used in a real IR engagement.

Who this is for

Built for practitioners, not beginners

Built for practitioners, not beginners

The Hashmu Attack Lab is designed for security professionals who have foundational knowledge and want to develop real investigation capability through hands-on practice — not theory.


The Hashmu Attack Lab is designed for security professionals who have foundational knowledge and want to develop real investigation capability through hands-on practice — not theory.

SOC analysts & incident responders

Analysts who work in a SOC or IR function and want to build end-to-end investigation skills beyond alert triage. Ideal for teams that respond to incidents but have limited experience running a full forensic investigation from scratch.

Security teams preparing for IR certifications

Professionals pursuing SC-200, GCFE, GCIH, or similar certifications who want hands-on practice before their exam — working through real scenarios rather than memorizing theory from a study guide.

Corporate SOC teams — team exercise

Organizations wanting to run a structured team-based investigation exercise — testing collective SOC capability, identifying skill gaps, and building shared investigation methodology. Functions like a technical tabletop with real execution.
