Where It Sits in the Scheme
4 ASOM-Fed techniques reach this countermeasure, across 4 forms of maneuver.
This is the direction the forward mapping cannot answer. A reader who works in D3FEND arrives holding D3-OTF and needs to know where it is employed in a scheme of maneuver — not which of MITRE's tactics it belongs to, which they already know.
Reached By
- M2.10 Egress Data Loss PreventionM2 Defense in Depth · T5 Data
Inspect and constrain outbound movement of the record types the campaign exists to protect.
- M4.03 Egress Filtering and Allow-ListingM4 Obstacle / Canalization · T3 Networks
Constrain outbound destinations so command channels must use paths you inspect.
- M6.03 Bulk Export ThrottlingM6 Delay · T5 Data
Cap the rate and volume of bulk retrieval so a successful intrusion cannot become a successful exfiltration in one pass.
- M8.07 Egress BlackholeM8 Isolation / Retrograde · T3 Networks
Cut outbound reachability for a defined scope to stop exfiltration and command channels while analysis continues.
Forms That Arrive Here
A countermeasure reached from more than one form is employed more than one way. D3FEND has no notion of a form, so this join exists only here.
- M2 Defense in DepthThe formEnsure no single failure is decisive.
- M4 Obstacle / CanalizationThe formForce the adversary onto ground you own and watch.
- M6 DelayThe formBuy decision time and prevent the adversary culminating on the objective.
- M8 Isolation / RetrogradeThe formGive ground deliberately to preserve the force. Degrade gracefully; never fail open.
What This Does Not Claim
That a technique reaches a D3FEND countermeasure says the two describe the same defensive act. It does not say the countermeasure is deployed, configured, or working — that is an assessment finding about your estate, not a property of the framework.
