This is the eighth and final course in the Cybersecurity Defense Analyst Career Path.
Most security professionals wait for alerts to tell them something is wrong. Threat hunters are different. They actively search for hidden dangers before attacks happen. In this course, you'll join the fictional Wonderland SOC to learn how to use the PEAK Threat Hunting Framework through real-world scenarios. You'll practice tracking suspicious patterns, testing your theories about potential threats, and analyzing unusual behaviors. By the end, you'll have acquired skills to search for threats that standard security tools might miss.
📚 What You'll Learn
▪️Hunt with Purpose: Practice hypothesis-driven and baseline hunting approaches to uncover hidden threats.
▪️Use the PEAK Framework: Follow a structured methodology to prepare, execute, analyze, and act on threat hunting missions
▪️Leverage Splunk: Perform searches, identify outliers, and analyze security data
▪️Think Like an Attacker: Develop intuition for spotting abnormal behaviors and suspicious patterns
📌 Why This Course?
Practice using the same tools and techniques that professional threat hunters use every day. As you build your SOC skills, you'll gain the knowledge you need to pursue the Splunk Certified Cybersecurity Defense Analyst certification.
