What you’ll learn
The Performing CyberOps Using Cisco Security Technologies (CBRCOR) training is designed to guide participants through the fundamentals of cybersecurity operations, methods, and automation. The knowledge acquired in this training is intended to prepare individuals for the role of an Information Security Analyst within a Security Operations Center (SOC) team. The curriculum covers foundational concepts and their practical application in real-world scenarios, emphasizing the use of playbooks in formulating an effective Incident Response (IR).
Participants will also learn how to apply automation for security using cloud platforms and adopt a SecDevOps (Security-Development-Operations) methodology. The training delves into techniques for detecting cyberattacks, analyzing threats, and making informed recommendations to enhance cybersecurity measures.
Completion of this training not only provides valuable skills but also earns participants 40 Continuing Education (CE) credits, contributing towards the recertification process. Additionally, the training prepares individuals for the 350-201 CBRCOR core exam, validating their proficiency in performing cyber operations using Cisco Security Technologies.
