Frequently Asked Questions:

Who is ASHIRT for?

  • ASHIRT was developed by the Yahoo Red Team to reduce friction of reporting during engagements. ASHIRT allows operators to quickly submit relevant evidence without switching screens.
  • No more dragging and dropping screenshots into a shared folder or document. No more saving recordings to a shared file folder.

Why should I use ASHIRT?

  • It allows multiple operators to capture and place that evidence into a coherent timeline of events.
  • It serves as an automatic synchronization point for different members and stakeholders to instantly get visibility into what is happening.

What does ASHIRT do for Blue Teams?

  • It improves collaboration, allowing network defenders to see exactly what happened, when it happened, and most importantly how.
  • When the Blue Team wants to recreate an attack, structure a hunt, or build detections, ASHIRT lays an easy-to-follow timeline to reference. One Paranoids’ network defender said, “It’s not quite being in the attacker’s shoes, but it’s pretty dang close.”
