The SOC has become one of the most important cyber defense capabilities in enterprise environment today.

It is for this reason that organizations are constantly in the hunt for SOC analysts. As of March 2021, there were approximately 2,500 vacant SOC analyst job positions across the United States (source: LinkedIn), which is a clear indication that those with the requisite skill set will always  be in a job.

By the time students get to the security operations and incident response section of the course, they would appreciate why it was important to build the necessary foundational knowledge of security technologies. This is because the main tool used in the SOC (i.e. the SIEM) relies on all these other security technologies to deliver value. As a SOC analyst, you want your SIEM tool to give you that much needed situational awareness of security events that are unfolding on the network, therefore, you need the various sources of security events to push logs to your SIEM tool for analysis, correlation and alerting.

The course is packed with a lot of relevant and realistic information and scenarios, so be rest assured that you're going to get the full value for your money!
