In this advanced course consisting of six tasks, students embark on a comprehensive journey through real-world cyber threats and defenses. The course begins with the analysis of a possible remote intrusion attempt, challenging students to investigate potential breaches within critical networks. They dive deeper into cyber investigations, exploring “watering hole” attacks, compiling indicators of compromise, and conducting memory and disk forensics. The course culminates in students closing their investigations, crafting polished reports suitable for their portfolios. Throughout, students gain practical experience using industry standard tools like Splunk, Wireshark, Volatility, Autopsy, Virus Total, Hybrid Analysis, and ANY.RUN.
Upon completing NON-118E, students will have gained practical experience in investigating two different cybersecurity incidents, equipped with the skills and documentation necessary to kickstart their careers in the dynamic field of cybersecurity.
