This course includes four modules that cover incident detection, network monitoring, investigation, and using IDS and SIEM tools for network security.
This module introduces learners to incident detection and response, providing insights into the incident response lifecycle, incident response teams, communication during incident response, incident response planning, incident response tools, documentation importance, intrusion detection systems (IDS), and security information event management (SIEM) tools. Learners will also engage in practical challenges and assessments to reinforce their understanding of the concepts.
In this module, learners will delve into network monitoring and analysis, understanding the importance of network traffic flow, data exfiltration attacks, packet analysis, packet capture, interpreting network communication from packets, and exploring tools like tcpdump and Wireshark for network traffic analysis.
Module 3 focuses on incident investigation and response, covering incident detection methods, investigation of indicators of compromise (IoC), documentation best practices, triage processes, business continuity considerations, post-incident reviews, and practical application of incident investigation tools.
This module explores the use of intrusion detection systems (IDS) and security information event management (SIEM) tools for network traffic and log collection. Learners will gain insights into the significance of logs, variations in logs, detection tool usage, examining detection signatures, and querying events using tools such as Suricata, Splunk, and Chronicle.
