Security Operations Center Analysis
Prepare for SOC analyst roles with practical training in security monitoring, incident detection, and response procedures using industry-standard SIEM platforms and analysis tools.
Course Overview
This comprehensive SOC analyst training program focuses on security monitoring, incident detection, and response procedures essential for modern security operations centers. Students master SIEM platforms, log analysis techniques, and threat intelligence integration through hands-on exercises with real security event data.
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)
Master popular SIEM platforms including Splunk, ELK Stack, and QRadar for security event correlation, log aggregation, and real-time monitoring with custom dashboard creation and alert configuration.
Log Analysis and Correlation
Develop expertise in analyzing security logs from various sources including firewalls, IDS/IPS, endpoints, and network devices to identify patterns, anomalies, and potential security incidents.
Incident Response and Triage
Learn systematic approaches to security alert triage, incident classification, escalation procedures, and documentation standards following industry best practices and regulatory requirements.
Threat Intelligence Integration
Understand threat intelligence feeds, IOC (Indicators of Compromise) analysis, threat hunting methodologies, and integration of external threat data into security monitoring workflows.
