Defensive Cyber Operations course(s)?

Matt Warner

Hi all,

I'm about to take a new job doing defensive cyber operations at a government facility. I've never done exactly this work before, but I have CISSP and plenty of other cybersecurity experience. Can anyone recommend any courses here that would be good to improve my knowledge?

Thanks!

I am not a blue teamer, but I know some free materials:
Chris Long Detection Lab (free).
Hand made Security Onion/Vulnhub lab (free).
Boss of the SOC Datasets with Splunk (free).
Traffic analysis exercises on Malware-Traffic-Analysis.net (free).

Here, I never saw related materials.

@Matt-Warner,

I'm not sure at what level you're entering this position.

Within our Legacy section, we do have the former CCNA CyberOps (2 courses) that were designed around the entry level Data Analyst for a SOC. So this may be too basic, but we do hit topics like the security fundamentals as well as sec operations at that level there.

We are currently updating that course but will not be complete for a few weeks and because it's updated for new exam objectives. This newer iteration will not be as indepth as the previous 2 courses were.
