Pickle Rick CTF From cat Blocked to Root Shell (TryHackMe Walkthrough + Blue Team Detection)

Write-Up/ Walkthrough

Just published my walkthrough of the Pickle Rick room on TryHackMe but with a twist. Instead of just solving it, I added a blue team detection layer showing how each attack step would look in a real SIEM.

Covers the full attack path from initial recon to root shell, plus the KQL detection rules that would catch it.

Would love feedback especially from anyone who has done the room before.
