This advanced program is intended for experienced cybersecurity professionals with a strong foundation in Red Team and Blue Team methodologies, penetration testing, and investigative techniques. Participants will elevate their expertise by actively engaging in both offensive and defensive operations within a complex, scenario-driven environment.
In this immersive, hands-on experience, a fictitious organization is in crisis after a cyberattack renders its primary infrastructure unusable. Participants are challenged to regain access through existing backdoors while bypassing security restrictions. From there, they will analyze log data to reconstruct the attack timeline and ultimately restore critical organizational data.
Throughout the course, participants will work across both Linux and Windows environments, leveraging Splunk and a variety of additional tools, as well as conducting open-source research to support their investigations.
