MDX: The Multi-Tool for Documentation

Welcome to our first blog post! Today, we’re showcasing how MDX makes this wiki more than just text. It’s an interactive environment.

DFIR Approved

Interactive Tabs

Sometimes you need to show different commands for different operating systems. MDX makes this easy:

Windows (PowerShell)

Get-WinEvent -LogName Security | Select-Object -First 10

Linux (Bash)

tail -n 10 /var/log/auth.log

Guided Steps

Incident Response is all about process. Here’s a quick example of a triage step:

1. Identify: Determine the scope of the incident.
2. Contain: Isolate the affected systems to prevent further spread.
3. Eradicate: Remove the threat from the environment.
4. Recover: Restore systems to normal operation.

Memory Forensics

Always capture volatile memory before pulling the plug on a suspicious machine!

Why MDX?

MDX allows us to import Astro components directly into our markdown files. This means we can create custom visualizations, interactive buttons, or even fetch live data from external APIs while keeping the simplicity of Markdown.

Stay tuned for more updates!
