The course prepares you for the CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-003) exam with an in-depth dive into the world of cybersecurity analytics. It begins by introducing the CySA+ exam, guiding you through exam preparation, system architectures, and operating systems. You will install and work with Kali Linux and other tools critical for logging and network architecture, building a solid foundation for further cybersecurity practices. As you progress, the focus shifts to the identification and mitigation of cyber threats. You’ll explore attack methodologies, frameworks, and various tools for analyzing malicious activity, such as Wireshark, WHOIS, and AbuseIPDB. The hands-on demos will solidify your knowledge, enabling you to detect and respond to threats using real-world analysis techniques. You’ll also dive deep into threat intelligence and hunting, covering advanced topics like risk and vulnerability management. In the final chapters, the course hones your skills in vulnerability scanning and incident response. You will engage with various scanning tools, and demos like Burp Suite and Nessus, learning to handle vulnerabilities through risk management and patching techniques. By the end of the course, you’ll be well-versed in incident response procedures and basic digital forensics, ensuring you can handle post-incident reporting and remediation.
