What It Does
Track which terrain has been hunted, how recently, and against which hypotheses.
Observable indicator. Unhunted terrain is visible and dispositioned.
Where It Sits
A technique is chosen from inside a form and emplaced on one layer. Both are the catalog’s own declarations; the position is counted in catalog order.
- Form of maneuverM7 CounterattackSeize the initiative and evict before the adversary reaches the objective.
- Terrain layerTX Cross-CuttingThe enablers of movement. Key terrain: The telemetry pipeline, the orchestration layer, the rules of engagement.
- Position in the form13 of 17M7 carries 17 cataloged techniques; this is the 13th in catalog order.
Phases It Is Employed In
Employed in one phase of the campaign. A phase named here means at least this technique is live in it — not that the form it belongs to is the main effort.
- Phase VEnable / RestoreRecover, harden, and update the doctrine and the intelligence requirements.
Controls That Assess It
The controls the catalog names against this technique. They are what an assessor would test to establish that it is emplaced and working — the indicator above is what shows it is working, which is a different question.
- CE-4 Coverage and Residual Risk ComputationCycle Execution and Assurance — To produce a posture figure that can be reproduced and challenged rather than asserted, so that the number carries authority beyond the tool that generated it.
- CE-6 Cycle Record and TrendCycle Execution and Assurance — To answer whether the program is improving — a question no point-in-time assessment can address.
In MITRE D3FEND
What this technique is called in MITRE’s countermeasure ontology. The join runs technique-to-technique: D3FEND catalogs countermeasures, and the thing with a countermeasure’s shape here is the technique, not the control.
- D3-SYSM System MappingModel tactic
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.
Related Techniques
The catalog declares no relation for this entry, and no other entry names it — the inverse is derived here, so an incoming edge would show up even though this one never declared it. The techniques below share its assessment surface, which is the nearest adjacency the data supports.
Assessed Alongside
Not a declared relation: these are the techniques whose assessing controls overlap this one’s, ranked by how much of the two assessment surfaces coincide. Showing 6 of 7 that share at least one control.
