What This Course Covers
The course focuses on the core knowledge areas needed for Cisco Certified Cybersecurity Professional certification preparation:
1.0 Fundamentals
Understand the foundational cybersecurity concepts needed for professional security work. Learn about threats, vulnerabilities, risk, security controls, attack methods, network security principles, endpoint security concepts, evidence handling basics, and the role of cybersecurity professionals in protecting systems and data.
2.0 Forensics Techniques
Build knowledge of digital forensics methods used during security investigations. Practice concepts involving data collection, evidence preservation, artifact analysis, file analysis, endpoint investigation, log review, chain of custody, timestamps, indicators of compromise, and techniques used to identify suspicious activity.
3.0 Incident Response Techniques
Develop confidence with practical incident response actions. Learn about alert triage, containment, eradication, recovery, escalation, communication, documentation, threat identification, malware-related response, endpoint investigation, and decision-making during active security incidents.
4.0 Forensics Processes
Understand the structured processes used in cybersecurity forensics. Review investigation planning, evidence acquisition, validation, analysis, reporting, documentation, legal and procedural considerations, forensic integrity, and the steps used to support accurate and reliable security investigations.
5.0 Incident Response Processes
Learn how incident response is organized from detection to recovery. Practice topics involving incident response goals, playbooks, threat intelligence, endpoint file evaluation, ad-hoc scans, STIX and TAXII formats, ThreatGrid-style report analysis, lessons learned, and recommended next steps after an incident.
