SNS S503 Network Monitoring and Threat Detection In Depth - GIAC Certified Intrusion Analyst GCIA
 
Course Description
This course equips security analysts to detect analyze and investigate malicious network activity using traffic analysis intrusion detection systems and network forensics. Learners develop a deep understanding of TCP IP behavior attacker tradecraft and evasion techniques, enabling accurate detection and analysis of sophisticated network based threats across enterprise environments.
 
What You Will Learn
Analyze network traffic at the packet level using industry standard tools
Identify malicious communications anomalies and command and control activity
Detect attacker techniques designed to evade network based defenses
Develop tune and validate custom intrusion detection signatures
Perform network forensics to support post incident investigations
Communicate technical findings clearly to SOC and incident response teams
 
Who This Course Is For
This course is designed for SOC analysts network security analysts incident responders threat hunters and security engineers responsible for monitoring detecting and investigating network based attacks.
 
Hands On Training Experience
Learners complete extensive hands on labs using packet capture and intrusion detection data. Exercises include reconstructing intrusions tuning detection signatures analyzing attacker behavior and building detailed attack timelines based on real world scenarios.
