Overview
The Understanding Cisco Cybersecurity Operations Fundamentals (CBROPS) training provides an understanding of the network infrastructure devices, operations, and vulnerabilities of the TCP/IP protocol suite, and basic information security concepts, common network application operations and attacks, the Windows and Linux operating systems, and the types of data that are used to investigate security incidents. After completing this training, you will have the basic knowledge that is required to perform the job role of an associate-level cybersecurity analyst in a threat-centric security operations center (SOC).
Who Should Enroll
- This training is designed for associate-level cybersecurity analysts who are working in security operation centers
How you’ll benefit
This training will help you:
- Learn the fundamental skills, techniques, technologies, and the hands-on practice necessary to prevent and defend against cyberattacks as part of a SOC team
COURSE OBJECTIVES
