Mappings Explorer

March 27, 2024

Project Summary

Mappings Explorer is a hub for defenders to explore security capabilities mapped to MITRE ATT&CK®. This singular resource enables cyber defenders to understand how security controls and capabilities protect against the adversary behaviors catalogued in the ATT&CK knowledge base. Our mappings bridge the threat-informed approach to cybersecurity with traditional cyber hygiene through the deployment of security controls.

Mappings Explorer presents threat and mitigation data in easily accessible and customizable ways. This centralized collection enables threat-informed decision making by relating real-world cyber threats to corresponding mapped security capabilities.

Problem

Defenders lack a single resource to view defensive capabilities mapped to the adversarial attack techniques in ATT&CK.

Solution

Create a central hub that provides access to all mappings, and offer standard tools and processes for developing mappings to ATT&CK.

Impact

Defenders can easily access and explore mapped security controls from the perspective of the ATT&CK techniques they mitigate.
