Detection Engineering Introduction, Learn about this critical Cyber Security function!
Course Description
Learn all about Detection Engineering! This theory based course is a non-technical introduction into what it means to be a Detection Engineer.
Detection Engineering is a Cyber Security function which primarily is responsible for the research, creation, testing, and operationalization of new alerts that get sent to a Security Operations Center.
The course content is taken largely from my technical course on Detection Engineering. I wanted to provide a free, condensed course for those who just want a high level introduction into this exciting Threat Operations function.
This course is perfect for student of cyber security, anyone new to the cyber security field, or anyone that wants to hear from someone with years of experience not only in Detection Engineering but a variety of other roles as well.
In this course, you’ll learn:
- What is Security Operations?
- What are different roles within a Security Operations Center?
- What is a Security Incident and Event Management system?
- What is the Detection Engineering workflow?
- What makes a good detection?
- What makes a bad detection?
- What technology do detection engineers use?
- What is MITRE and the ATT&CK matrix?
Give this course a try! This course is free and entirely theory based. If you want a deeper technical dive into Detection Engineering, please check out my more technical course on this topic.
Who this course is for:
- This course is for anyone wanting to know more about the theory behind Detection Engineering, which is a critical function in a mature SOC.
