benefits of btl2
BTL2 is designed to strengthen technical defenders that already have experience and exposure to security operations. BTL2 will develop you in niche areas that make you stand out as an advanced defender. Below are some examples of the skills and experience you will gain.
- Identify, analyze, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities to effectively reduce risk.
- Conduct static and dynamic malware analysis to gather indicators of compromise and document details of the malware’s purpose and utilized techniques.
- Writing SIEM detection rules and tuning them to ensure they’re as efficient as possible by conducting adversary emulation activities.
- Perform threat hunts to detect adversaries that have already breached the perimeter.
Who is the course for?
BTL2 is aimed at security professionals with 2-4 years experience in a practical role, but can be suitable for individuals with less experience provided they can commit to the intense training. Roles that we believe would benefit from this course include:
- Senior Security Analysts
- Senior Incident Responders
- Senior Security Consultants
- Threat Hunters
- Malware Analysts
