In the release version 3.3, we added 7 rules to cover MITRE Techniques under two new MITRE Tactics - TA0042 Resource Development and TA0043 Reconnaissance.

In the release version 3.2, we added 3 rules to cover more MITRE ATT&CK Techniques/sub-Techniques.

In the release version 3.1, we added 77 rules to cover more MITRE ATT&CK Techniques/sub-Techniques.

In the release version 3.0, we have re-mapped the existing Default Content to support the new MITRE ATT&CK sub-techniques.

As a result of this re-mapping exercise, the Default Content now supports the techniques and sub-techniques listed below.

For a more user-friendly way of browsing this list, we recommend you to visit https://mitre.microfocus.com/.

We also provide a downloadable JSON formatted file of all Default and Non-Default Content on the above-mentioned webpage.
