Objectives
This course can benefit you in two ways. If you intend to pass the CompTIA CySA+ (Exam CS0-003) certification examination, this course can be a significant part of your preparation. But certification is not the only key to professional success in the field of security analyst. Today's job market demands individuals with demonstrable skills, and the information and activities in this course can help you build your security analyst skill set so that you can confidently perform your duties in any security analyst role.
On course completion, you will be able to do the following:
Understand vulnerability response, handling, and management
Explore threat intelligence and threat hunting concepts
Explain important system and network architecture concepts
Understand process improvement in security operations
Implement vulnerability scanning methods
Perform vulnerability analysis
Classify vulnerability information
Explain incident response activities.Demonstrate incident response communication
Apply tools to identify malicious activity
Analyze potentially malicious activity
Understand application vulnerability assessment
Explore scripting tools and analysis concepts
