Course DescriptionThe Certified SOC Analyst (CSA) program is the first step to joining asecurity operations center (SOC). It is engineered for current and aspiringTier I and Tier II SOC analysts to achieve proficiency in performing entrylevel and intermediate-level operations.CSA is a training and credentialing program that helps the candidateacquire trending and in-demand technical skills through instructionby some of the most experienced trainers in the industry. The programfocuses on creating new career opportunities through extensive,meticulous knowledge with enhanced level capabilities fordynamically contributing to a SOC team. Being an intense 3-dayprogram, it thoroughly covers the fundamentals of SOC operations,before relaying the knowledge of log management andcorrelation, SIEM deployment, advanced incident detection,and incident response. Additionally, the candidate willlearn to manage various SOC processes andcollaborate with CSIRT at the time of need.
NASCIO Representing Chief Information Office ofthe States revealed in over a year-long survey (July2016 – December 2017), “since the creation of the SOC,the security division has seen an overall 64 percentdecrease in incident response time.”As the security landscape is expanding, a SOC team offers highquality IT-security services to actively detect potential cyber threats/attacks and quickly respond to security incidents. Organizationsneed skilled SOC Analysts who can serve as the front-line defenders,warning other professionals of emerging and present cyber threats.The lab-intensive CSA program emphasizes the holistic approachto deliver elementary as well as advanced knowledge of how toidentify and validate intrusion attempts. Through this, the candidatewill learn to use SIEM solutions and predictive capabilities usingthreat intelligence. The program also introduces the practical aspectof SIEM using advanced and the most frequently used tools. Thecandidate will learn to perform enhanced threat detection using thepredictive capabilities of Threat Intelligence.”Nearly 6 in 10financial serviceproviders owna SecurityOperations Center(SOC).- EY Global InformationSecurity Survey 2018–19Recent years have witnessed the evolution of cyber risks, creating anunsafe environment for the players of various sectors.To handle these sophisticated threats, enterprises need advancedcybersecurity solutions along with traditional methods of defense.Practicing good cybersecurity hygiene and implementing anappropriate line of defense, and incorporating a security operationscenter (SOC) have become reasonable solutions. The team pursuestwenty-four-hour and “follow-the-sun” coverage for performingsecurity monitoring, security incident management, vulnerabilitymanagement, security device management, and network flowmonitoring.A SOC Analyst continuously monitors and detects potential threats,triages the alerts, and appropriatley escalates them. Without aSOC analyst, processes such as monitoring, detection, analysis, andtriaging will lose their effectiveness, ultimately negatively affectingthe organization.
Target AudienceSuggested Duration SOC Analysts (Tier I and Tier II) 3 days (9 am – 5 pm) Network and Security Administrators,Network and Security Engineers,Network Defense Analyst,NetworkDefense Technicians, NetworkSecurity Specialist, NetworkSecurity Operator, and any securityprofessional handling networksecurity operations Minimum of 24 hours Cybersecurity Analyst Entry-level cybersecurityprofessionals Anyone who wants to become a SOCAnalyst.CertificationAfter the completion of the CSA training,candidates will be ready to attempt theCertified SOC Analyst exam. Upon successfulcompletion of the exam, with a score of at least70%, the candidate will be entitled to the CSAcertificate and membership privileges. Membersare expected to adhere to recertificationrequirements through EC-Council’s ContinuingEducation Requirements.

8 Critical Components of CSA1. 100% Compliance to NICE 2.0FrameworkCSA maps 100 percent to the NationalInitiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE)framework under the “Protect and Defend(PR)” category for the role of Cyber DefenseAnalysis (CDA). It is designed as per the realtime job roles and responsibilities of a SOCanalyst.The CSA course trains the candidate touse various defensive measures and datacollected from multiple sources to identify,analyze, and report events that might occur orare already present in the network to protectdata, systems, and networks from threats.2. Emphasizes on End-to-End SOCworkflowCSA offers an insightful understanding ofend-to-end SOC overflow. It includes all SOCprocedures, technologies, and processes tocollect, triage, report, respond, and documentthe incident.3. Learn Incident Detection with SIEMTraining on various use cases of SIEM (SecurityInformation and Event Management)solutions to detect incidents throughsignature and anomaly-based detectiontechnologies. Candidates will learn incidentdetection on different levels - Application level,Insider level, Network level, and Host level.4. Enhanced Incident Detection withThreat IntelligenceCSA covers a module dedicated to rapidincident detection with Threat Intelligence.The module also imparts knowledge onintegrating Threat Intelligence feeds intoSIEM for enhanced threat detection.5. Elaborate Understanding of SIEMDeploymentIt covers 45 elaborated use cases which arewidely used across all the SIEM deployments.6. Promotes Hands-On LearningCSA being a practically-driven program, offershands-on experience on incident monitoring,detection, triaging, and analysis. It also coverscontainment, eradication, recovery, andreporting of the security incidents. To thatend, there are 80 tools incorporated into thetraining.7. Lab Environment Simulates a Realtime EnvironmentThere are 22 labs in total in the CSA program,which demonstrates processes aligned tothe SOC Workflow. These include, but are notrestricted to, activites such as: Modus operandi of different type ofattacks at application, network and hostlevel to understand thier IOCs Working of local and centralized loggingconcepts which demonstrates how logsare pulled from the different deviceson the network to facilitate incidentmonitoring, detection, and analysis Examples of SIEM use case developmentfor detecting application, network andhost level incidents using various SIEMtools Triaging of alerts to provide rapid incidentdetection and response Prioritization and escalation of incidentsby generating incident ticket The containment of incidents The eradication of incidents The recovery from the incidents Creating report of the incidents8.
