Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

This course offers a practical introduction to cyber defense operations with a special focus on malware analysis and threat detection. Learners will gain a foundational understanding of the roles within red and blue teams, the evolving cyber threat landscape, and how to collaborate across disciplines to build a resilient security posture. It’s designed for aspiring cybersecurity analysts, threat hunters, and incident responders who want to explore how modern defense strategies are applied in real-world environments. 

The course begins by introducing cyber defense concepts, including adversary tactics, team collaboration, and the MITRE ATT&CK framework. It then transitions into in-depth malware analysis, starting with VirusTotal, static and dynamic analysis, and log correlation in Splunk. You’ll also explore hands-on detection using custom log analysis, network-based malware behavior, and decompilation techniques using PCAP files. Practical demonstrations, real-world tools, and analysis frameworks are integrated throughout to strengthen threat hunting and analysis skills. 

By the end of the course, you'll be equipped to detect, analyze, and respond to cyber threats using structured frameworks and malware analysis tools.
