The ATT&CK Workbench is an application allowing users to explore, create, annotate, and share extensions of the MITRE ATT&CK® knowledge base.
Organizations or individuals within the ATT&CK community can initialize an instance of the application to serve as the centerpiece to their own customized instance of the ATT&CK knowledge base, attaching other tools and interfaces as desired. Through the Workbench this local knowledge base can be extended with new or updated techniques, tactics, mitigations groups, and software. Finally, the ATT&CK Workbench provides means to share these extensions with the greater ATT&CK community if so desired, facilitating a greater level of collaboration within the community than is possible with current tools.
We developed the Workbench with the ATT&CK user community in mind. If MITRE ATT&CK is at the core our organization’s security operations, you actively track threats against ATT&CK, align your defenses to ATT&CK, or plan your security investments based on ATT&CK, the Workbench is for you. The ATT&CK Workbench enables a number of important use cases within the ATT&CK community:
- Cyber Threat Intelligence: Take notes on techniques, groups, and other objects to collaborate within a threat intelligence team. Update your knowledge base with new mappings as soon as new threat reports are released.
- Defensive Planning: Stay up to date with the evolving threat landscape by downloading new releases of ATT&CK automatically. Fill in gaps in open-source reporting by creating new groups and software and seamlessly integrate them into the existing ATT&CK knowledge base.
- Red Teaming: Track and manage coverage of Red Team engagements the same way you track your ATT&CK coverage.
- Collaboration with ATT&CK and the community: Share your custom datasets with the ATT&CK community and download datasets created by others.
This repository contains an Angular-based web application providing the user interface for the ATT&CK Workbench application, as well as the main documentation regarding its use. The ATT&CK Workbench application requires additional components for full operation. See the install and run instructions for more details about setting up the entire project.
For more information about the ATT&CK Workbench, please see the docs folder. The contents of the docs folder is also available in the in-app help page.
- usage: documentation about how to use the ATT&CK Workbench application and its full capabilities.
- changelog: records of updates to this application.
- collections: documentation about the collection and collection index data type.
- integrations: instructions for integrating other tools with the ATT&CK Workbench.
- contributing: information about how to contribute to this project.
Importing and exporting data from the ATT&CK Workbench is facilitated through the Collections and Collection Indexes. These data formats also enable record keeping of ATT&CK versions and extensions.
-
Collections are sets of related ATT&CK objects, and may be used to represent specific releases of a dataset such as “Enterprise ATT&CK v9.0” or any other set of objects one may want to share with someone else. Collections are represented in STIX 2.1.
Collections for all current and prior ATT&CK releases can be found on our attack-stix-data GitHub repository.
-
Collection indexes are organized lists of collections intended to ease their distribution to data consumers. Collection indexes track individual releases of given collections (e.g Enterprise v7, Enterprise v8, Enterprise v9) and allow applications such as the Workbench to check if new releases have been published. Collection Indexes are represented as JSON objects.
The ATT&CK collection index can be found on our attack-stix-data GitHub repository. The ATT&CK Workbench is pre-configured to recommend this index in the "add a collection index" interface.
More information about collections and collection indexes can be found in the collections document.
The ATT&CK Workbench application is made up of several repositories. For the full application to operate each needs to be running at the same time. The docker install instructions will install all components and is recommended for most deployments.
-
ATT&CK Workbench Frontend (this repository)
The front-end user interface for the ATT&CK Workbench tool, and the primary interface through which the knowledge base is accessed.
-
REST API service for storing, querying and editing ATT&CK objects, as well as for managing collections, collection indexes, and collection subscriptions.
The manual install instructions in each repository describe how each component to be deployed to a separate machine or with customized settings.
Please refer to our Docker install instructions for information on installing and deploying the the full application using Docker. The docker setup is the easiest way to deploy the application.
- Node.js version 16 or greater
This step is necessary for cases where the app is deployed locally through ng serve or ng build. It can be skipped for installs using docker (above).
- Navigate to
app - Run
npm installto install required packages
- Run
ng servewithin theappdirectory - Navigate to
localhost:4200in your browser
- Run
ng buildwithin theappdirectory - Copy files from the
app/distdirectory
If you're building the app for production, use ng build --prod which will use the production environment instead of the development environment. See modifying the environment for more information.
The ATT&CK Workbench Frontend is configured to connect to the REST API running under its default configuration. If the applications is configured to run on a different port, or if the application is to be hosted for access on multiple machines, the environment must be edited to reflect the URLs and port.
These environment properties can be edited under src/environments:
- src/environments/environment.ts is the development environment with configurations for when it is hosted on a local machine or is being actively developed. This is the default environment file used when building the application.
- src/environments/environment.prod.ts is the production environment for deployment inside of an organization or in cases where the user is not developing the application. When the application is built for production deployments (
ng build --prod) this environment file is used.
To allow for additional customization, the ATT&CK Workbench enables users to set a default landing page for their instance of Workbench. To set the default landing page:
- Open up the config file, found at
src/assets/config.ts. - Set the
defaultLandingPagevariable to the url path you want to set as the default landing page- You can set the default to a more general page, such as the tactic list view
"defaultLandingPage": "tactic", or to a specific page, such as a certain matrix"defaultLandingPage": "matrix/x-mitre-matrix--eafc1b4c-5e56-4965-bd4e-66a6a89c88cc"
- You can set the default to a more general page, such as the tactic list view
For additional troubleshooting and installation of security certificates for use by ATT&CK Workbench, pleaser refer to PKI Certificates instructions.
Structured Threat Information Expression (STIX™) is a language and serialization format used to exchange cyber threat intelligence (CTI).
STIX enables organizations to share CTI with one another in a consistent and machine readable manner, allowing security communities to better understand what computer-based attacks they are most likely to see and to anticipate and/or respond to those attacks faster and more effectively.
STIX is designed to improve many different capabilities, such as collaborative threat analysis, automated threat exchange, automated detection and response, and more.

MITRE ATT&CK® is a curated knowledge base and model for cyber adversary behavior, reflecting the various phases of an adversary’s lifecycle and the platforms they are known to target. ATT&CK is useful for understanding security risk against known adversary behavior, for planning security improvements, and verifying defenses work as expected.
The ATT&CK Navigator is a web-based tool for annotating and exploring ATT&CK matrices. It can be used to visualize defensive coverage, red/blue team planning, the frequency of detected techniques, and more.
