Course Outline
Module 1: Security Concepts
- Describe the CIA triad
- Compare different security deployments
- Define key security terms
- Compare core security concepts
- Explain the principles of the defense-in-depth strategy
- Compare various access control models
- Define terms as established in CVSS
- Identify challenges related to data visibility (network, host, and cloud) in detection
- Identify potential data loss from provided traffic profiles
- Apply the 5-tuple approach to isolate a compromised host within a grouped set of logs
- Contrast rule-based detection with behavioral and statistical detection methods
Module 2: Security Monitoring
- Compare attack surface and vulnerability
- Identify the types of data provided by these technologies
- Describe the impact of these technologies on data visibility
- Explain the uses of these data types in security monitoring
- Describe network attacks, including protocol-based, denial of service, distributed denial of service, and man-in-the-middle
- Describe web application attacks, such as SQL injection, command injections, and cross-site scripting
- Describe social engineering attacks
- Describe endpoint-based attacks, including buffer overflows, command and control (C2), malware, and ransomware
- Explain evasion and obfuscation techniques, such as tunneling, encryption, and proxies
- Describe the impact of certificates on security (including PKI, public/private key exchange over the network, asymmetric/symmetric encryption)
- Identify certificate components in a given scenario
Module 3: Host-Based Analysis
- Describe the functionality of endpoint technologies regarding security monitoring
- Identify components of an operating system (such as Windows and Linux) in a given scenario
- Explain the role of attribution in an investigation
- Identify the type of evidence used based on provided logs
- Compare tampered and untampered disk images
- Interpret operating system, application, or command line logs to identify an event
- Interpret the output report of a malware analysis tool (such as a detonation chamber or sandbox)
Module 4: Network Intrusion Analysis
- Map provided events to source technologies
- Compare impact versus no impact for these items
- Contrast deep packet inspection with packet filtering and stateful firewall operation
- Compare inline traffic interrogation with taps or traffic monitoring
- Contrast the characteristics of data obtained from taps or traffic monitoring against transactional data (NetFlow) in network traffic analysis
- Extract files from a TCP stream when provided with a PCAP file and Wireshark
- Identify key elements in an intrusion from a given PCAP file
- Interpret fields in protocol headers as they relate to intrusion analysis
- Interpret common artifact elements from an event to identify an alert
- Interpret basic regular expressions
Module 5: Security Policies and Procedures
- Describe management concepts
- Describe the elements in an incident response plan as stated in NIST.SP800-61
- Apply the incident handling process (such as NIST.SP800-61) to an event
- Map elements to these steps of analysis based on NIST.SP800-61
- Map organization stakeholders against NIST IR categories (CMMC, NIST.SP800-61)
- Describe concepts as documented in NIST.SP800-86
- Identify elements used for network profiling
- Identify elements used for server profiling
- Identify protected data in a network
- Classify intrusion events into categories as defined by security models, such as Cyber Kill Chain Model and Diamond Model of Intrusion
- Describe the relationship of SOC metrics to scope analysis (time to detect, time to contain, time to respond, time to control)

It did give me the insight what I needed :) I am starting teaching on a BTEC Level 3 qualification and wanted to widen my knowledge in this area.
