Foundations of Security Operations with Hayden Covington - Antisyphon Training

Course Description

Foundations of Security Operations will take you from the ground floor of “What is a SOC” to “How to detect and investigate a multi-stage attack”.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work in a SOC? Do you manage a SOC and want a better understanding of what goes on within? Or maybe you want to experience Elastic and how it can be used for threat detections and analysis?

Throughout the course you will gain an understanding of key functions of a SOC and it’s tools, specifically its SIEM and ticketing systems. You’ll learn how they work under the hood and how to bend them to your will. These fundamentals will build upon themselves until you find yourself writing custom sequence detections and investigating them when they fire.

Foundations of Security Operations has a good mixture of fundamental knowledge with the freedom to apply that knowledge at a more advanced level for more experienced analysts. As different functions within a SIEM are covered there is leeway for those with more experience to branch out and build on the basics of the labs.

By the end of the course, you will have a fully functioning SOC of your very own, lacking only in analysts (besides yourself). You’ll be given resources on how to further improve your SIEM should you wish. Lastly, you will be able to tell interviewers that you single-handedly stood up a SOC’s infrastructure.
