Performing CyberOps Using Cisco Security Technologies (CBRCOR)

The duration of this course is 16 hours, and it is eligible for 40 CE credits towards recertification.

The Performing CyberOps Using Cisco Security Technologies (CBRCOR) training guides you through cybersecurity operations fundamentals, methods, and automation. The knowledge you gain in this training will prepare you for the role of Information Security Analyst on a Security Operations Center (SOC) team. You will learn foundational concepts and their application in real-world scenarios, and how to leverage playbooks in formulating an Incident Response (IR). The training teaches you how to use automation for security using cloud platforms and a SecDevOps methodology. You will learn the techniques for detecting cyberattacks, analyzing threats, and making appropriate recommendations to improve cybersecurity. This training prepares you for the 350-201 CBRCOR v1.1 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified Specialist – Cybersecurity Core certification and satisfy the core exam requirement for the Cisco Certified Cybersecurity Professional certification.
