Proposed Technical Addition: MITRE ATT&CK Mapping

Latest comment: 1 month ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello everyone. I am a cybersecurity researcher and the maintainer of an open-source threat catalog. I noticed the "Tactics and Techniques" section does an excellent job detailing LockBit's real-world behavior, but it currently lacks a formal mapping to the industry-standard MITRE ATT&CK framework.

Per Wikipedia's COI guidelines, I am disclosing that I maintain the dataset linked below. I have mapped LockBit's encryption routines, lateral movement mechanisms, and defense evasion behaviors directly to MITRE ATT&CK to assist SOCs in developing detection engineering pipelines.

Could an independent editor review the technical data here and consider adding a sentence/citation to the Tactics section if it meets encyclopedic standards?
