Cisco Certified CyberOps Associate Cert Prep: 1 Security Concepts (232506)

In this course, instructor Lisa Bock helps you prepare for the Cisco CBROPS exam. Lisa covers the principles of a defense-in-depth strategy, to ensure the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of a system. Lisa outlines today’s threats and threat actors, and explores the relationship between risk, threat, vulnerability, and exploit. She helps you understand the metrics that make up the Common Vulnerability Scoring System. She reviews access control models and stresses the importance of employing the principle of least privilege. Lisa covers the challenges of complex environments in monitoring traffic and describes how using SIEM, SOAR, and log management helps consolidate information. She summarizes security deployments, such as network and endpoint systems. Lisa compares anti-malware applications, outlines the benefits of using threat intelligence, and concludes by describing methods you can use to manage risks and prevent data loss.

Cisco Certified CyberOps Associate Cert Prep: 2 Security Monitoring (232523)

In this course, instructor Lisa Bock describes the various attacks that can occur on the network, along with ways malicious actors use methods such as tunneling and encryption to conceal their behavior. Learn how to recognize the importance of having application visibility and control to effectively monitor the network. Lisa shows you how to examine system data from tcpdump and NetFlow to help with analysis. Discover ways to limit data visibility from threat actors on the network, by using access control lists and network address translation. She then outlines how to assure trust on the network by using the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). Finally, see how a trusted third party uses certificates to securely exchange session keys to all parties in a transaction. Along the way, Lisa provides practical challenges that let you put your new knowledge to the test.

Cisco Certified CyberOps Associate Cert Prep: 3 Host-Based Analysis (232540)

Cybersecurity specialists and related occupations are in high demand. In this course, instructor Lisa Bock helps you prepare for the host-based analysis portion of the Cisco CyberOps exam. Lisa begins by summarizing key components in a Windows OS. She then walks you through the architecture, file system, and registry, along with ways you can interact with netstat to monitor active processes. Lisa reviews basics on how to monitor the Linux OS, either while working in the shell or a GUI. She describes the importance of having a solid grasp of the network architecture and reinforces how to achieve defense in depth to monitor and protect all endpoints. Lisa then covers the elements of an IPS/IDS log entry, along with ways to examine your network security data. She summarizes methods to generate a malware analysis report. Finally, Lisa explains how to respond effectively to a cybersecurity incident while preserving the chain of custody after an attack.

Cisco Certified CyberOps Associate Cert Prep: 4 Network Intrusion Analysis (218345)

Cybersecurity specialists and related positions are some of the most in-demand security positions today, and the Cisco CBROPS exam is a big part of proving your skills for any cybersecurity job. In this course, Lisa Bock helps you prepare for the exam, covering the network intrusion analysis topics you need to know. Lisa shows how an intrusion detection/intrusion prevention system can detect and mitigate common attacks, as well as identify potentially malicious traffic that may have slipped by organizational defenses. She explains how to comb through data and interpret IDS/IPS alerts and artifacts from an event and log files for an indication of compromise. And she takes a deep dive into packet analysis to examine how Wireshark helps you evaluate network traffic and application data.
